bump? crump? trump? sump? pump? lump? dump?
I bought it to run but now I'm going with a blitz kit its just the way things happen. I never expected to have a used s/c offered to me when I made the purchase.
But ill take the feedback and wait til there are pics

That could be true... It's ether that, or they don't know what they're doing. You bought one of the three manifolds that arrived on January 13th. It's been over 11 weeks since then.
Just sayin'. :rolleyes:
When you talked to the finishers what did they say? Hey, if they can't deliver what you paid for, why not cancel the order and have them chemically remove the plating. Your chances of selling a plain manifold would be much greater. :thumbsup:
cali yaris
04-05-2013, 12:46 PM
^ Why are you being so negative? You've had no dealings AT ALL with this plater, and have NO idea what conversations we've had with them or with our customer.
He was quoted 8 weeks from the beginning. We are at 3+ weeks, and for good reason.
In fact, it's all good, and everyone is fine with it -- except for the guy trying to stir things up in here. :laugh:
I puchased the manifold and then talked to jeff a while and they didnt start the process til after 2/1. They quoted me 8-10 weeks so we are right inside the timeframe I was advised.
tooter
04-05-2013, 01:14 PM
Sorry, Garm. :frown: I didn't know that the actual plating process itself takes 8 weeks to complete. It must be a really complex time consuming process. But if it takes weeks to get around to doing it because the plating company is busy filling other orders, wouldn't there would have been plenty of time to simply cancel an unstarted order?
tooter

That you're satisfied is all that matters. :smile:
I know nothing about what transpired and figured that there was lots of time to save money by cancelling an unfilled order. Even if there was a cancellation fee I believe that you would still be ahead.
This was such a custom 1 off piece that returns and cancellations aren't really a possibility nor would I do that to the finisher or MI. I prepurchased the unit and even after the finisher quote, asked jeff to send the unit off ASAP and get it started. With the manifold almost 100% done it would be so unfair of me to try and ask for a return or to try and cancel or reverse the finishing process. It is just one of those things I have to live with. Losing a small percentage and helping someone pick this up at a discount is well worth being able to make 2013 the year of the boost for me lol

Of course not MI. :smile:
Your transaction with Garm and Jeff was completed when you had already paid for their manifold. I was only referring to your transaction with the finisher, and wondered if it would have been possible to cancel the order at the time you bought the forced induction. "8 to 10 weeks" can only mean your manifold sits around in their shop while they're finishing other orders.
cali yaris
04-05-2013, 08:15 PM
^ He didn't have a transaction with the plater, we did. There are numerous steps to this process, doing one piece at a time through all of them would make no sense at all. Instead, they run several pieces through each step. All the pieces in a batch are finished together.

Never seen that before. Looks so good but hazardous to your health at the same time.
hazardous to your health is a good thing. I'm firmly in the camp of living too long is a bad thing. We're supposedly going to live to 80, isn't that enough? Some people even believe that within that lifetime medicine is getting ready to make the jump to Star Trek levels, meaning life expectancy will double, or something ridiculous.
I'm not sure I would want that. Unless quality of life is vastly superior to what it is now once people hit 50+. If 100 - 160 becomes the new 30, then ok, I will take it.
