Been 1month now since I ordered my IAP kit. Got my jack and jackstand ready.Going to run seafoam prior to installing.Got 4 friends coming over to help hold and hand me tools/beer.Got my camera fully charged to take pictures of complete install. Don't know if it's goign to be here this weekend though.Got e-mail said it was going to be shipped in a couple days.So that means next week.That hurricane is suppose to hit this weekend.......I'm just getting paranoid about my kit since I just got scammed.Goign to spend more $$$ on gas driving to his house then what it's worth but the fact that he did it to me.Keep me updated Marc.Can't wait till it arrives, keep up the good work.

None of my business but if you are that worried about it call them instead of posting up a bunch of threads, I'm sure they are busy in the shop and not surfing nico. You will probably have better luck reaching them by phone. From what I have read in the IAP thread it takes a solid 4-6 weeks, also I’m sure summer is their most hectic time, but I will let them answer for themselves. IAP is a good company and very upfront... I have met Mark personally and from what I can tell they are not in the business of scamming people. Don’t forget that Monday was a holiday.

just making sure because if you had been running regular you would have to get out of the system before you boosted...or else engine go b00m

Florida, relax just a liiitttle bit please! I know you're anxious to get your parts, but it WAS one of Marc's original stipulations that the first few kits would take some time to come out. I am 100% sure that you will get everything very soon and in excellent order-- plllease just relax a little bit and quit posting updates every 5 minutes about you not having your kit yet. You WILL get it soon, THEN post about it! We wanna see pics!

I'm just paranoid.Because I got scammed.Taking care of it now.....And haven't been able to get a hold of them. Was told still on track for Friday but guess something came up or they forgot about the holiday.I work 7-5 and just haven't been able to contact.Don't know if my mail is messing up or just bad timing.I know they are working hard, I'm just stressed.I couldn't install anywayz this weekend due to hurricane Dennis.I could, but my dad would kill me if he saw my car in the living room.I know there busy just wondering if anyone has had trouble lately getting a hold of them.Or if I just got bad timing(wouldn't be surprised). Keep up the good work IAP can't wait....

I'm waiting now.Sent a couple emails no response yetalthough this is about the time he replied to my others..But power is going to be off in a couple hrs.Unless hurricane dennis spares me. Hopefully we don't get hit hard.....So now it won't matter when I get my IAP kit as long as I get it before next weekend.

I'm bugging him for 2 reasons.1 is to see if we were still on for delivery. 2 is to make sure he got the correct mailign address. If he makes me wait that's not very busineslike, due to him holding my money for a month now.I'm just liek any other customer concerned abot my product. After recent events I've gotten paranoid about any purchases I have online. I just want to be updated.

Last week at the car meet.One tried to burn out and just burnt his clutch.While another that was in a puddle couldn't even spin them.I'm going to blow out my clutch and roast my tires on the first night.And my brakes will be gone as well. This is my friend's dad's neon.He runs faster than the srt-4's and he's only got 7lb of boost.

What do you expect it's a neon? He runs a 13.7 on 7lbs.Think it' s a T3.... Going to quit working when the UPS man arrives.
