No ertz doesnt work there. Chris FOWLER works there which is owned by Arvil FOWLER. But i do know chris in the talon why dont you like him?

If you choose speedtek plan on waiting about 2 months and having ruben tell you your stuff got eaten by a wild pack of wolves or something

wertz talks alot of trash. his car never seems to run half as fast as he thinks it does. he blew up several motors when he was running his shop and never made it right for people that i know of. then he up and moved which only made it worse for those people. now i never knew any of these people personally but heard the horror stories from them.

he is just the guy who wants to be important and talks big to impress people. i just dont care for people like this.

Well i ordered a STb from them. A BMR, and you know red and black are the main colors anything else is special order. Ok i ordered a RED one, and a week later nothing one more week, nothing another week nothing. I asked and ruben tells me they are having trouble powder coating it. Having trouble powder coating it?..red one..i didnt order ******* mystichrome...RED. So i called Lee at BMR guess what they never had my order? I had lee call ruben after i made a thread on here and what did i get? I got down there and ruben tells me i dont need to be going on Ls1tech and asking BMR. I could have sworn thats what the feedback forum was for but maybe i misinterpreted it.. stupid me. So i confront ruben in front of keith and the rest of the store about what was going on he said it was a mis Q. Ok thats cool mistakes happen but for the past month you told me you talked to BMR about them having trouble powder coating? His eyes got big and So i was like so you were lying. I got offered store credit but i just said you know what ill take my business else were and i have been Xtreme horsepower loyal ever since. Its ok to MIS Q my order mistakes happen i understand but dont lie about it.

He is the dipshit that never orders anything. If they don't have it....don't bother.
BTW: If you don't stand there while they call...it is not happening.
