I must admit that I've never seen that happen before.. At this point Martin, I really don't even know how to deal with all of this.

Although I know that helps none, as you'd be without a manifold..



PLEASE call them.. I think hearing your frustrations personally will do better than me just relaying it. But I will still advise them of the situation.



PM me your address.



Justin





well they are the people that were trash talking me on the forums(remember the thread that was closed.. that i never saw) i'd rather not talk to them. and just so you know... i cant send jet hot anything without a reciept...... i already have a replacement manifold, where the welds are reinforced, so its better than the one from the kit you sold us.

i completely agree with what vosko and stangklr.



unfortunately, its late for me to realize that, i wish i had the the money when the crutial decions were made, but i guess the timing of my engine blowing up and everything wasnt the most opportune moment for me.



next time something big happens, you guys will hear about it in the "cars for sale" section of the forum. ill go back to bone stock fd
