I bought my GT35/40 from Ivan at RPM. Still waiting on it though.....taking way too long....Turbosmart was out of WG flanges and that set the entire order way behind....I am hoping to have it in my car in about a week...we'll see though.

We shipped yours this past week. You should see it on Tuesday.

Everytime I have ordered a kit there is always something the manufacturer is waiting on to complete it.
I have one extra kit in stock and have ordered a few more.

Ughh. I feel your pain. I would be calling them every other day.
The problem is that the majority of the products for the industry are not made in the states. That means everything is coming from Japan etcc.. via the slow boat.
Long backorders are not uncommon. I have sometimes had to wait 5 months for stuff to arrive.

The more I thought about it, the more I realized that they could be coming straight from Japan. My problems, and i've had a bunch, have all been from total lack of communication, not the wait.
Sorry if you caught the brunt of my frustrations.
You guys have a great reputation, and i'll be ordering from you regularly as soon as my porject gets off the ground. I pm'd you Jason, but I figured people needed to see a public apology.

That's a class act. Not many on this forum apologize for what they type.

For the record I have received the rest of my kit.

It was not my intent to lash out. I did call Jason when I got back to the states and he worked it out. Just if you order anything from ANYONE; prepare yourself to wait. We are not dealing with parts for a Honda Civic.
