...... I have tried all ways of contacting but no luck. Only way left is for someone to go down there physically and check things out. I just hope they havent run away with our money To be honest, I don't believe they would do that - They have a large customer base with folks in Lancaster. I believe that they have just taken on more buisness than they can manage with the amount of people they have working for them...
The bad thing is, since they have too much going on, they don't seem to be available to either finish current projects, or answer the phone or emails like before (or are avoiding either due to the back-lash thus far).
I have emailed Mike B about what the situation is. It has been 2 weeks since I've visited the shop, and so far no resolve. As you can tell from my signature, it has now crossed the 5 month barrier. I have attempted to call Stafford all week, but he never picked up his phone, and his voice mail box is full.
I can only hope that Mike (aka catalyst) returns my last email, as I have stated that if they cannot deliver the goods by mid june - that I want a refund and will purchase a Max-rev stainless manifold. I have already been in contact with Max-rev, they have parts ready to ship. I do not doubt their quality, as they are a respected member of the Honda-tech forums (plus with other members here using their parts)....
All I can say is that I hope they do get their act together, as SF does make some nice parts, but they have more pressing issues - such as getting their shop in order, getting caught up with the log of back-orders.
If you are reading this Mike - please feel free to chime in....
I agree with opto. If I dont see my kit being shipped by mid June, I want a refund and SF would get a legal notice from authorities.
As I said before, being late is one thing, but not responding to your customers is no way to do a business.

We really can't blame you for anything, since it all lies with SF. When the time comes, however, if people are considering legal action they'll probably just need you to be a part of it.

I was talking to Mike today, my red kit was sent to someone who was supposed to get a polished kit, so he has it back now, and will be sending to me today. Another bit of good news is that he port matched the header for my P&P head, thanks man.

I'm just waiting for the triple T fitting/hoses, and the intercooler mounting rods.

OK I spoke to Mike and Mike just now ...... (finally) and Mike B told me that he has my kit ready in a box, with my Stainless steel equal length mani right in front of him all done. The only thing holding my kit is the external wastegate that they are expecting to get in a day or two.
Well, at least some positive light!
