Lee Posted July 5, 2003 Report Posted July 5, 2003 Well I can see the problem now! Pan down to the pics. http://www.efi-street.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=8861 Quote
patgizz Posted July 5, 2003 Report Posted July 5, 2003 idea: take the thing to a muffler shop that can mandrel bend, have it copied all in one peice, get yourself a filter, and sell the one from shane to someone else that will use it. Quote
89oldscutlass Posted July 5, 2003 Report Posted July 5, 2003 I havent said anything but after looking at those pics of that crappy weld job Id be pissed too. Quote
Maverick Posted July 5, 2003 Report Posted July 5, 2003 Thats alot of money for some shatty weld jobs. Im thinking of going after some new air-intake action, and after hearing all of this, the money he wants for the product he delivers isnt gonna happen. Maverick Quote
Guest TurboSedan Posted July 6, 2003 Report Posted July 6, 2003 fwiw, i have not seen my finished crossover pipe or crossover pipe welds themselves yet. lolumz34 - i know this isn't about CAI's or anything, but the welds and customer service is what i'm concerned about. i am more local, so it's not so critical to me i guess, but that's the only reason i 'butted in' in this thread. ALTHO, i met him personally and he seemed like a good guy. i didn't look at his CAI's for myself when i was in Loveland, but i'll be paying for it when i see it (the x-pipe). i think Shane needs at least give some type of reply, but then again he has my TGP x-pipe finished and i don't quite have the $$ yet, so i have no place to argue with him. hope this all turns out good. my .03 Shane i'll be picking up my crossover pipe ASAP.... joshua Quote
lolumz34 Posted July 6, 2003 Author Report Posted July 6, 2003 Well... I've now called him twice, and left messages both times, clearly leaving my name, number, and reason for calling. Still nothing back Quote
Aaron Posted July 6, 2003 Report Posted July 6, 2003 my welds are of very good quality, even Luke and John said so themselves, so maybe his shop just had a bad day, cuz he doesnt personaly do the welds i dont think. Quote
lolumz34 Posted July 8, 2003 Author Report Posted July 8, 2003 So I'm still calling.. I am calling him during the day and leaving very polite messages about how I would just like an update. Still nothing. Quote
Brian P Posted July 8, 2003 Report Posted July 8, 2003 I don't think it's worth calling anymore. He's got your messages and he will do as he chooses regardless. I don't even know what you can do from here, less you kick his ass or something. Quote
lolumz34 Posted July 8, 2003 Author Report Posted July 8, 2003 Well... Since I paid with paypal, I can protest his acct with paypal. If he doesn't do something about that...he can be shut down with paypal. I don't want to do that...so I am doing my best to get this settled. I should not have to do this to get this dealt with. He should be calling me. But hey...everyone here now knows about the issue. And I will soon take this to every other message board. He has until august 1st. Quote
Ouija Posted July 8, 2003 Report Posted July 8, 2003 DAY 54 and still waiting....does not reply to my e-mails..i give him till the end of the week and then im gonna stir up shit Quote
Ouija Posted July 8, 2003 Report Posted July 8, 2003 . I don't even know what you can do from here, less you kick his ass or something.[/quote if i dont get my package theres some" legal" ways....since i have proof of payment with paypal Quote

And I will soon take this to every other message board. He has until august 1st. you know... You're gonna wait till august 1st just to get a call back?? you're a fool for waiting this long and if you wait longer, you will probably lose your chance to protest his account and not see any chance of getting your money back. I dont know how you even waited this long! Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted July 8, 2003 Report Posted July 8, 2003 I'm with Brian on this one. I'm pretty sure PayPal has a time limit on filing complaints too, you'd better get on the ball with this. Personally, I think you guys have way more patience than I do. I had an Ebay seller send me the wrong item once, when I emailed him about it, I didn't hear back for 3-weeks. I was forced to file a complaint on PayPal and guess what, it worked! He sent me the correct item so I cancelled the complaint and all is well. Go ahead and file the complaint NOW before it's too late. If he comes through, cancel the complaint. It's that easy. Some people just need a fire lit under their ass. Quote
Ouija Posted July 9, 2003 Report Posted July 9, 2003 thats what ill do...i give him till the end of this week...its been 54 days..do yall think its too late?? Quote
Ouija Posted July 9, 2003 Report Posted July 9, 2003 yeah i think its too late... http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/gen/ua/policy_buyer_complaint-outside Quote
lolumz34 Posted July 9, 2003 Author Report Posted July 9, 2003 Ok..fair enuf... But there are ways other then that... He called me tonight... And even tho I asked him leave a message, he did not. Quote
Ouija Posted July 9, 2003 Report Posted July 9, 2003 But there are ways other then that... like what? im in canada too so whats my options? Quote
Ouija Posted July 9, 2003 Report Posted July 9, 2003 while im at it i gotta question about the intake...someone told me that in winter i have to take it off because of the cold , is that true or is he talking out of his ass? Quote
lolumz34 Posted July 9, 2003 Author Report Posted July 9, 2003 Not true... The only reason you would have to take it off is because of wet. But even that is not really an issue tomcat23's intake went right under the engine...he had his year around and his car worked fine. The filter was just a little rusted...but other then that it worked fine. Quote
Guest TurboSedan Posted July 9, 2003 Report Posted July 9, 2003 fwiw, i drove down to Denver yesterday and tried to call then tried to stop by his house in Loveland. no answer, just a nice black TGP sitting out in front..... joshua Quote
Ouija Posted July 10, 2003 Report Posted July 10, 2003 what else can i do besides a complaint at paypal? Quote
Ouija Posted July 10, 2003 Report Posted July 10, 2003 shiiiit im in montreal it would cost me 5 times the cost of the intake just for gas ......but there must be some legal stuff or something Quote
Ouija Posted July 10, 2003 Report Posted July 10, 2003 well i finally got my shit today!(redz) wtf its in not in metal its like in plastic or somthing .....anyways how do i connect the sensor thats on my filter box to the intake...doesnt fit in the hole on the intake?!?!? do i have to take off the plastic thingy that connects the sensor to the air box?....somebody help!!!
