Todd is great.... if you are having a problem with Todd lets be honest its probably out of his control.... he wouldnt purposely delay shipping or poorly design something.... that would just be ludacris from a business standpoint..... but these things happen to all companies...... how many of us have taken our tCs back for recall warranty work??? I dont see anyone complaining about that!!! Point being even the largest companies with the best designers in the world(like Toyota, Nissan, Honda) have issues..... thats just the way things are....

I never had any problems with my motor.. Great price and great service from ERL.. You can swap and switch items.. send your own stuff in with your motor.. and they are done in a fair amount of time.. Prices are good as well.. you want a motor built right put it in hands of experienced people, they are the ones.. ERL AND DART are pretty much neighbors so you know what goes into ERL Blocks.. I've dealt with them and send a lot of my buddies down that way.. SETH is a good guy and they have several different options and setups.. My motor has my hand picked parts and they provided the rest.. But definately look around. Dezod is pretty much just coming into this market and so is P-tuning. I would like to know what dezods and p-tunings do.. cause my motor build has their stuff in it as well.. I thank todd for turning me on to ERL.

I mean Golden Eagle does blocks for the 2az-fe as well.. everyone over looks them but they provide Chris Rado of World-Motorsports most of his stuff and products he uses.. It's all a preference. Like a choice of wheels, tires, exhaust, etc.... The motor is only good as how it's put together and tunned.

all they know is they get stuff now, they forget that todd is only human. cut him more slack than you would dezod or ptuning. that have facilities.
i've been to todd's place, it looks like a house with a garage to me.
wait. it is.

Its still not an excuse to not refund money to ppl who have been waiting almost a year like some ppl on the boards. Business is business there are no personal excuses for not having good business practice and ethics. If he doesnt have the man power or facilities, then stop taking orders from ppl and putting them off for months on end. If every business in the world would stop because of minor personal reasons then there would be no businesses left.
And if you really wanna play the "ohhh hes busy" game, then he should write on his website 4-6 month wait instead of 4 weeks.
And i was not happy upon receiving my kit. The piping is total crap, and he still owes me and many others an spipe...but 4get ever seeing that.
Absolutely unacceptable

I think you missed the point about the refund...Todd was doing the guy a favor, letting him pay a little here, a little there, over the course of MONTHS! You think Dezod or PTUning will let you do that?
Obviously, the money Todd received got spent running the business...so then when all of the sudden the guy changes his mind, he want his money back. On that "special purchse", Todd is not required to honor the refun at all, but it seems like he is. So it's expected that the refund will take a long time since the money is not there.

Understood BUT,
Did this guy pay in increments after getting his kit? Then i could see Todd on the good side of this...
But if both parties agreed to the circumstances that todd would be paid in incremnts and when paid in full the kit would ship...then those conditions do not change the right to a prompt refund

I went through Todd for the ERL 2az-fe Race Package, and am just waiting for the engine to be shipped back.
Let me say that going through Todd and ERL has been far less of a hassle than it could/should have been. They've been so patient with me and my situation that I would recommend them OVER AND OVER. Whenever I've needed a question answered, I sent Todd a text, and got a reply within minutes.
As soon as the engine is back in the car, I'll post up like a muhfugga.

todd is not your mom. he is not there for you to send money for him to save up for you. it does not work that way. spent the money running a business knowing he had to keep that guy in mind and finish his kit. for that guy to send money over months than decide to change his mind is wrong.
