I am sure you will get the same answer he has been giving the other 2 parties. "I'm working on it and it will be taken care of next week". I know Marty (Woodster) has been more than patient and the other gentleman on 6speed has been a good member for a while with no reason to lie, so again, nobody really needs to "vouch" for anybody else, Neil owes these dudes $ and the bottom line is he needs to pay them instead of spending $ on new dynos for his shop.

Interesting, they are not too far away from me. I know Brando has had work done at Orton on his C4S and he seemed happy with it but you'd have to ask him. The Orton guys are registered here, maybe they can chime in?

I hear ya. I'm just offering a courtesy to members of the community. You never know, when someone broaches an issue face to face, it can change the course of things.

At this point, a little face to face won't hurt.

I believe that would be an excellent idea.

The truth needs to be known. If there is an issue, hopefully it can be resolved as a win win situation. If it continues as it has been, it isn't going to be pretty. I really don't want to see Neil get hurt and I definitely don't want any of our reader's hurt either.

I recall that there were problems with him a while back, on the other place. Things go quiet, then the chatter changes to 'Neil's a stand-up guy'. Now, we're back to this.

Why does the automotive community not have a zero-tolerance policy for this kind of thing? The only bright side of these business ethics is that at least you don't have a Viper. The tuning market for those cars has a few notorious shysters...

You are SO wrong...This guy does things like this regularly!
