Default Anyone got a dead horse I can borrow for a minute?

So Steve moves from Motopersona to GRD. Right about that time I order APR's stage III. I've been on the phone for months with whom I can only guess to be customer service at GRD. APR has told GRD they will be shipping a few kits to them at multiple dates only to be empty handed once the date had come. I keep calling in hopes that there is some news. Nothing. I call today, and now APR is backordered again. Hmm? How can a placed order get skipped over twice? This is where I would insert an ignorant comment about APR's customer service, but it's not really their fault. It's just a shame that APR can't do the manifolds in house. I believe this is the limiting factor in an otherwise great company. I would think that by now, this would have been a non issue. It's gotten so disappointing that I'm thinking about canceling the order and just moving on. I mean nothing makes a better case for getting the damn EVO. >

***I have no issues with GRD. Those guys have been great with follow up and I want to give them my business, but this is just getting ridiculous.***

Default heck, I got skipped over twice on a stupid boost gauge....

nevermind on a S3 kit...worst customer service...EVER

If they learned how to stock parts and work better with their manufacturer...maybe they could keep their customers happy.

Default I'm giving them till the 1st of June to get a set date otherwise I'm out.

It's a shame to get this far only to quit, but hey, what are you gonna do?
