Default Fastech closed???

Got a calll from the landlord today told me to come pick up my car or it would be towed to the pound. This was at 8:30 am. I told him to hold my car i would be up there asap. He said there was about 7 other cars just left there at the shop and they would be towed as well. Guys if you have a car there go pick up. Spoke to stang killer and he said they never worked on his car and he picked it up in peices. mine was never worked on, but it sounds like crap. OMG Fastech. I got screwed. The land lord left his number on the door good luck.

They won't be resurfacing on LS1TECH as sponsors again. This makes twice we have been burned on payments.

Fastech told me my CFN kit wasn't working but all it was was the nozzle turned in the bellows then Sean had My Knock turned off and my injectors maxed out!!!! Good thing I didnt spray it before i had everything checked out. Pretty sad he left all his loyal customers high and dry like that. RPM has been slammed with new customers from what I hear since this all happened. Best of luck to you guys.

I'll jump in here and say that RPM has fixed the issues that Fastech left me with. I'm still upset that I paid for a tune and some other work that was poorly done, but at least now I have a place that's willing to work with me, will call me back when they say they will, and is genuinely interested in making me a happy customer. I'm just glad that I didn't push ahead with all the other work I wanted Fastech to do for me (tranny/clutch and rear end)...

I hope everyone gets their car/parts/etc asap. I'd hate to see cars getting towed or parts getting stolen with something like this going on. Post up any more information you get ahold of if possible.

As far as DFW shops, I can only recommend SQR.

No more non-sponsor information guys. RPM isn't a sponsor, nor is HPP. If you want to extend offers, thats fine. Sponsor and enjoy the privileges that sponsors do. Until then, enjoy regular member status.


My car only gets worked on at SQR, fwiw

I hope nuthin happen to the guy, nice guy just bad management skills (aka keeping customers happy and calling them back and showing up on time) I had heard he was gonna have a new shop with a different name but this is just bad to leave former customers high and dry
