WOW!!! We need more Affiliates like this TURBO IS HERE!!!!!!

Post by MR2lover »

Last week i order a turbo from Tim@xxxx, he got the turbo from the USA in 48 Hr WOW. He then sent out the next day. Super quick. Unfortuntly though the Shitty royal mail lost the parcel as it was sent 10 days ago and has still not arrived. Been to sorting office everyday and there are no parcels in the office anymore :cry: . To say the least i was pi$$ed :lol: So i spoke to tim who replies superfast and he said he will file claim with royal mail as luckily he sent insured =D>

The good news is tim said he will order up another turbo today for me and sort out the money later woth royal mail. This i think is just amazing, every other business should follow his great example.

WOW what a guy, any other business i exspect would file a claim with royal mail and take about a month. Then send out when they recieved money back.

Just wanna let you guys know how good he is. Unfortunatly the turbo wont be fitted for essex rr day but this give me extra time now to get more tuning bits from this tuning guru.

next thread will be : Tubby beaten by local postvan ... at least that way you'd know who nicked it.

Bad news it went astray, good news Tims sorting it all out. Bet he's glad he sent it out insured though.

I had a similar experience with my clear indicators. Got the note through the door saying they had arrived but wouldn't fit through the letterbox and to go and collect them from the sorting office.

Went to the sorting office who said they weren't there and that sometimes the postie take them to the local post office, drops them off then collects them the day later. So to come back the next again day.

Goes back the next again day and still no sign, the girl searched high and low for the parcel. This went on for about 5 days.

On the last day I went down again, still no sign. Then I realised the postie had ticked the package as a letter and not a parcel, so they go and check the letters (big bloody letter!) and it was sat there all that time!!! #-o

Thats good that you're getting it sorted so quickly. Like you said, there are a lot of places that wouldn't give a $hit. Big up to Tim! :thumleft:

guys there a bloody nightmare. Had late deliverys with another parcel thisweek already, a clutch for bry. Thankfully that turned up just at the last minute.

Going to be looking elsewhere for a courior now, hate these guys as there making me look bad. every package gets shipped the next day or earliest possible time. then these guys take 2 weeks to deliver. its a joke.

Anyway ryan thanks for the kind words, i'll do by best to get you one for the weekend.

probably why i'm still single :oops:

anyway ryan been looking at this turbo for my car. estermated to only have 300rpm more lag than the gt2860rs and is capable of over 400bhp and 400ft/lbs torque at sensible boost levels. Still 72% effcient like the gt2860rs.

Great turbo for the next step up.

matt you do realise the t3t4 xspower uses had an even more awkward fittment than a normal gt turbo. so even more fabrication will be needed?

he did but the t3t4 wasn't making the power he wanted to i managed to get a custom housing made up that allows a gt turbo to fit onto his very strange external wastegate arrangement.

So hes just swapped out the turbo

Try www.parcel2go.com, they're not too bad and you don't have to have an account. They can be a bit annoying sometimes with not picking up til the next day you requested but overall a good service I've found.
