ive emailed you it seems like dozens of times, with no response. ive called your house several times and left messeges on your machine and with your mother(i think). its really important that you contact me. its been like 3 months since i ordered the manifold from you. if anyone else has a better way of getting ahold of this guy, PLEASE, let me know.

Yeah, join the club...parts were supposed to be here two weeks ago...he now has 2400 dollars of my money and I havent seen a damn thing. He gave me two tracking numbers that were worthless and then I wasnt able to contact him again last week. He's apparently in Colorado right now, or was over the weekend. I plan to try to get ahold of him again today.

Amen to that...he's definitely fallen off of this board and I never see him online either. I talked to Ian today and he HAS gotten his turbo and stuff, so maybe I'll have luck...we'll see.

Yeah, legal action would be bad ;) Something I am considering unless I can get ahold him and he has a damn good explanation. My dad (he's tired of the car in the garage and I'm only home for summer) has offered to drive to minnesota with me to pick up the parts since shipping seems to be such a problem, if you can make it to Dallas, your welcome to come :D

the last i heard from him, he was having trouble with customs. that was like 2 months ago though. i think if he really had the parts, they would be shipped. i just dont think theyre in his posession.

Well, he last told me that your shipment had been screwed up by his partner and he had turned it over to him...so take that as you want, he should have at least notified you of the situation.

Sorry about the drama you guys are going through! I hope you all can either get your parts or just plain 'ol get your mone back because times are tough and this turbo stuff ain't no joke whether you're rich or not. Just getting a hold of him now seems to be an issue so I extend sympathy to you guys. It happened to me with an intercooler from some guy in Illinois and luckily for me after 2 months, he did not cash the money order.

I don't get how people that treat their customers like this stay in buisness. It's just rude, unperfessional and uncalled for, especially if your one of the ones who gave the guy money already. I feel the pain. When I sent my car to Kansas city to get the turbo on it, DARK SOL MOTORSPORTS had it for almost 4 weeks. I called about 15 + times a day, just to get a machine, inwhich they nevere returned my calls. They put on about 700 miles on my car and a year later I spent another $1000.00 to get their f***ups fixed. I feel for you guys-- sorry it's happening.

Back for an update! I finally got ahold of him and he said his dad had come into town/he had been out of town and had been really busy. Apparently the parts didnt ship out because his partner didnt pay the Airborne Express bill but he assures me that if I call him at 11am in the morning he will have the tracking numbers for me and everything will be on the way here. So it's looking up but I'm still waiting until I can play with the stuff for any rejoicing.

I used to have a del Sol so I hung out at darksol.com ALOT a few years ago. I have never heard of anything bad from these guys. I know Dave personally and he is a great guy. I wonder if they are under new management or have lackey's working for him now. That is VERY disheartening. Sorry to hear that one.

Well, it's halfway through thursday and nothing has shown up yet...I guess when he says this week, he means the VERY end of this week. Rtsol, you get that refund yet? James...what's your story?

Well, nothing came today either and I called...was told he would be home around 11...then called three times after eleven and got no answer...well one time it rang like twice and then went silent and then I got a hang up tone...you know, like someone hung up on me. So the parts damn well better show up tomorrow or I'm really going to be pissed off, I ****ing hate it when people ignore my calls, there is NO excuse for ignoring someone's calls and not e-mailing them back when you have 2400 dollars of their money and nothing to show for it.
