I thought he was like a "shop *****", that just hung around all the time.... Now that you say that, I think I did see him pick up a broom or two one day...

Not trying to imply anything negative.. but the guy was waiting a long time for his kit and that is simply excessive.. I was telling him don't waste your time waiting on a pre-drilled pan when it's very easy to drill and put a fitment in on your own. This should not be a show stopper. In fact an oil pan should be the last of your worries if you are boosting.. anyways.. carry on...
The "plug" in my signature are for companies with whom I've completed successful business with, and I believe in their customer service.
Yeah, well, this is what my completed business/customer service.....AND bolt on/out of the box product does for me.....

To have more fun then most in a tC!!!!
I figure if I start popping some kids out and the wife gets on my case about having a 2 seat tC, when we need a big SUV. I can probably sell the kit and recoupe some funds, but still have a car for a few years that is what I want.
Considering you get d ick back from a dealer for aftermarket parts, and good luck getting more then blue book in my area for a used supped up tC

It's still something more then nothing at the dealership.
A stage 0 is completely different then a Stage 1.5. People waste their money on superchargers all the time on SL for the tC. Getting a used $5000 kit for $2000-3000 is a good deal for a lot of people. I don't think I would really have a problem selling it on here since I take care of my car, and the after market parts I put in to it.

Just got done talking to Kenny, or the Janitor and he is sending me the pan.
So it is all working out. Figured I would keep you posted on this issue. Didn't want anyone to lose any sleep because of this
