Well, the car is running. Driving it (gently) up for a tune tomorrow night. I'll post a long review of it in a few days.. right now all I can say is never will I buy anything from FA20Crap again.
I did learn something from all this though.. Just because they are a forum vendor and have a nice looking website - doesn't mean shit.

I won't be purchasing anything from FA20Club ever again, either.
They have ZERO, ZERO, ZERO concept of customer service. VERY Late shipments, missing parts, fitment issues, shoddy craftsmanship. I recently gave them a shot to redeem themselves from my crappy modular header ordering experience this last year... all they did was solidify their place in my mind: worst vendor I've dealt with, hands-down.

This is in no way disagreeing with anything said here. I'm just sharing MY experience.
I've had a great experience with FA20club. We did a mobile tune on my supercharged setup and it's been amazing. I have given the car HELL. I mean it. I've done six 2-day track days, drifted it...A LOT, and even drove it across the country with zero issues or even the slightest hiccup. That's all. |

Refund
I've been waiting on a refund for a month for my turbo kit. Been really getting a lot of reassurances from them but no money!
So no kit and no money... bad news man |

How much did you pay and how did you make the payment?

$4620.95 via Paypal I have no recourse with Paypal or the Credit Card company at this point. The only option remaining appears to be legal proceedings. They have been very disingenuous in their dealings with me on this matter for months now. All I want it my money back which they have assured me I will get... but that's been every week for 2 months. At a certain point you feel like a sucker who has been taken advantage of. |

Ryan is correct. The 45 day period was up by the time I realized I wasn't going to get the balance of the product. I would Highly recommend people pay with credit card if your company has a longer dispute period.

Damn I didn't realize they had a limit. That definitely won't work for any FA20Club purchases. I guess it also empasizes only purchasing items that you know are in stock and can get within the time period. If you don't get the product in a reasonable time, file the dispute. My advice at this point is to continue to keep in contact with Toni and remain level headed and he will keep selling parts and hopefully get you the refund you deserve.
