...wait for your manifold, turbocharger, WG, DV, custom down-pipe?

Ive just spent Alot of money to company for the parts, their work looks awesome, but I guess Im just a bit surprised the length of the wait.

Ive been told 3 weeks Before theyll have everything ready to ship.


What kind of times did you have to wait?

Stuff i ordered...
GT35R
Ramhorn mani
Tial WG
Tial BOV
VBAND clamps
Custom DP

 

I waited 6 months for my topmount.... that wasnt fun...
and it still cracked after a month

3 weeks isnt that bad IMO... but it could be better... they just probably have to get some of it in, and that can take time

 

ordered my current setup in begining june '05 got it late july '05. about 6 weeks. wasnt worried, there was a small back order on the turbo and manifold, they were ou tof stock on my gate, and since i needed something custom on my d.p. that took a little time.

i was patient. i dont think 3 weeks is a bag thing. as long as it doesnt turn into 3 months.

 

ordered a topmount on Aug 6th, came Sept 21st...was told 2-3 wk wait. But whatever, it dosent matter.

 

bump! any more timescales?

 

i have ordered engine seals that take a month, i have ordered turbos that take 4 days, depends on availability for any parts

 

3 weeks sounds pretty good in my opinion. some companies might have a stock but typically if you order direct from a supplier it takes time. i doubt you are the only order they are working on.

 

Imo do it through credit cards. That way, they shouldn't charge you until they ship it. Also it would be easier to get your money back. Always check up with the seller and get updates and check your money if its been charged or still in your account. As long as it is within the time period of being able to get your money back...it would be an ok amount of wait time.
