do NOT buy turbo parts from AF-Performance !!
 
I bought Hondata s300 from them over a month ago, and still haven't got it, nor I've seen a shipping number or something.

Lately, I see other pissed customers, one of which bought some exhaust in April :shock:

The company doesn't respond to emails, phone calls, and pms since two weeks ago.

Check this out: Their toll free number doesn't work since Sunday, the 26th ?!?!?!?!

unbelievable ...

and I even bought my radiator from them an year ago .. WTF

Hmm...that sucks. I got my 440s from them a long time ago, I didn't have any problems. I guess it took maybe a little longer than other stuff, but it wasn't too bad.

But that sucks man, hopefully everything gets worked out.

I ALMOST bought my S300 from Ricky as well. I wound up ordering it from ImportParts.com - much better.

bump so that everyone would know ..

I won the claim from paypal, but he had no money in his account, so no refund

almost 2 months now, no money, no s300 .... but I'm about to bring their sorry asses in small claims court very soon

yeah... i ordered a walbro from him last year about this time, and it was supposed to be next day service, well i didn't receive it untill 4 weeks later. After 3 weeks of waiting and no response i just started posting a bunch of ---- on his posts. I guess thats what it takes for some people.

I'm glad you guys have done that though - it is what convinced me not to buy from him.

Wasn't that Ricky guy an employee or partner of some other company that fucked a bunch of people? Then he claimed he had no control over it, and then he opens up another "shop"?

Sounds like Tim at "Turbo Elements". After ------- the whole mirage community as "Speed-Options". ::)

A fraction? zero divided by anything is still nothing.

-----------

update:

I've got the system. It took 2.5 months, and I bunch of crap that I went through. And Ricky only started to take care of the so many unhappy customers because he got banned from H-T, so he couldn't sell his stuff there ... and that's a realy big deal.

anyways, one of the mods (Type X) went into personal PMs and phone call with me, so he kinda pushed Ricky a bit, so I've got a call from him finally and we resolved this crap.

.. hm, it had to be H-T to step in hard so that Ricky started taking care of orders and such ..
