That there's an angry mob with torches and pitchforks; you're trying to be Ghandi but are going to end up like Joan of Arc. :rofl:

That there has been more than one screenshot of activity in this thread, and that just because you haven't noticed more than one instance doesn't mean other instances don't exist.

This has been a subject of discussion for months now. If you think we haven't periodically been checking for funsies and giggles....

Do you guys like turtles? This kid likes turtles.

12:06 am and 12:26 am were the only 2 screenshots. "He has logged in consistently since the last time he posted". We only have 2 logs. Idk about you but 2 data points isn't enough to establish consistency.

Im not ignoring other instances, a 20 min spread is nothing. I am well aware this has been going on for months, ive been here, read the thread. Why do you think I reached out? For someone who isn't waiting on a kit i'm surprised you are so invested in this thread.

Note the time between those screen shots. He has been on here on multiple days.

What if i told you that days are 24 hours long and those screenshots are not a 20 minute spread?

I'm invested in this because i intensely dislike it when members of a community that i adore have a bad time. Just like you, apparently.

However, the time for making things right was a long time ago, and the idea that it's up to the remaining customers to pester the vendor in question with "a new email" yet again (because that's worked super awesome before) is batshit.

Also: I know you're sad about this discussion, but if i could have my likecats back, i would super appreciate it. They are very near and dear to me. <3

I didn't catch the part where the screenshots were a day apart. Either way, I agree that he should chime in, as I already said. Im not defending him, I was frustrated when I ordered my ecu and it was over promised and under delivered moths later. So I know how it feels. Again, im just trying to help the community.

<3 and smoochies.

Federal Trade Commission and California Department of Consumer Affairs are a good place to start. One call can open an investigation. If there are 40 of you with money taken and parts or refunds not in hand then that crosses the threshold in California for a class action lawsuit and they can go after his assets and garnish wages for refunds plus attorney and court fees. It can be much more than the simple amount he stole from customers.

This should really open some eyes and should yield a response from TSE

For what it's worth, I got the TSE kit over 3 years ago and the customer service then was pretty atrocious. Though, I did eventually end up with all the parts I ordered, after about 4 months of pestering and physically stopping by his shop in San Jose.

Ahh, but you see, his shop folded up and he no longer does business as trackspeedengineering. And he no longer has a reputation to uphold since he doesn't do business in the miata community anymore.

Not sure why I'm doing this because no one else would give a f and tbh it isn't because I want to appear to be a nice guy or whatever, If you have paid for mani and dp do get in touch I can give you a discount, but will need some proof

I actually did msg him a couple of months back but no reply

I received an email from Andrew as BCC, so I assume it has been sent to everyone with outstanding turbo kit orders. Looks like Andrew is calling it and giving full/partial refunds to everyone via PayPal. Hopefully this works out.

Kraken's post is timely as I find myself in need of a down pipe and water/oil lines to "complete" my kit.

If anyone has a TSE manifold and don't have a down pipe and exhaust shoot me an email. I can get something made up for you.

and it looks cool.

I wish I'd taken my car to Charleston to have you do my exhaust. The shiz I got from artech (another guy who's since closed up shop) rattles like crazy and required quite a lot of hammering to make fit.

Lars made my exhaust and it's the best. Lot better than the stuff I cobbled together on my first car. Fits nice and doesn't smash into everything when turning hard, sounds as awesome as the big mag should. Can't really ask for much more!

I guess i'll hop on the train. If anyone has paid for a TSE kit and hasn't gotten their parts yet......I cant help you. Sorry.

It looks like Lars and Kraken are good men. I have hope for humanity. Spend your coins with people who care about others more than self and everyone benefits.
