Update on SF:

The last thread was closed. please do not post questions or issues you have with SF. i am only making this thread to ease the minds of some members on this board.

I talked to SF about 20 minutes ago. Catalyst should be online either tonight or tomorrow. SF has been working to split the shop into 2 divisions to increase productivity. They're also working on perfecting the kits to be shipped. Basically in theory, once people receive their due kits, they will appreciate the wait for the quality.

SF wasn't planning on bailing on anyone so please get that out of your mind. I pm'd eddie at truehonda letting him know this news so hopfully things will get back in order shortly.

I apologize for your inconveniences. SF will back up their product, even though it may take a while, as of right now I see no better alternative.

Good luck to all who is expecting a kit.

-Joe

Nope, just a customer from last year. I'm just showing sympathy because once you get the kit, you won't believe how you made it this long without it. I would NEVER drive stock civic again...

If this is the case, I am expecting no less than an absolutely perfect kit.

edit: emphasis on perfect

ok so my thread is closed great... anyways the news:

Called Mike from an alternative Area code cell phone and he picked up. He said they have been working very hard and have not been picking up the phone almost at all. THe two teams thing is true. He deeply appalogized for not picking up the phone on me. He said they wanna get them out ASAP and he will put up tracking numbers with the names of hte buyers. This better freakin go through. I told him that a lawyer was ready for use but i still trust in them.


ANd please, can someone get me JOSH ROBBINS!!!! aka drivetofast

I second that. I just talked to Catalyst and he said that he should have some tracking numbers out tomorrow(5/14/04) but he logged off just as quick so thats all i got outta him. I dont mind a wait as long as its worth it.

I just stopped by the shop yesterday and Mike had four or five manifolds sitting on the bench. There was a shelf-full of turbos, also. So I wouldn't doubt it if some more kits shipped soon.

Woohoo!! I hope they get everything straighten out really soon. I'm hoping to get a SF kit soon as long as they do better with the time.

Eddie,

Could you PM about pricing on an SF kit? I'm really intrested in one, but wanted to talk with you first. And I want to wait until SF get ahead on things.
