FT-86 Speedfactory / Kartboy
 
I recently ordered a Kartboy shifter for my 86 from Ft86speedfactory.com.

Price: Good (slightly cheaper than most but around average)

Customer Service: Fantastic (made a mistake on my shipping address, emailed them and they had it changed in an hour, and the package still arrived on time!)

Problem: I order the part on 03/23/13 and according to the website my order is still processing. Upon order Iwas ssent an automated email with an order confirmation, but beyond that no other emails were sent, so I was in the dark whither my parts shipped or not.


Over all: 4.75 / 5

I've had the same "issue" with not knowing what was going on with the order - turns out my email Spam filter was at fault.

There's a good chance if you check your spam folder, there's an email from JB Autosport confirming shipment of your order. :)

We're working on getting tracking numbers to the site in a more timely fashion, it's two separate systems we use. Definitely one of the areas we need to improve on. We always get the part out though. :)

Appreciate the support.

Shoot either way simply because of the customer service and selection I'll be keeping my business here!

Kartboy

Bout their short throw shifter.

I am thoroughly impressed, on their website they claim a 28% reduction in throw but it feels like 50% the pattern goes from being a decent throw with some slop stock to tight precise shift pattern with a click of each gear you'll be having so much fun shifting you'll look down and see that you're going 120mph and not notice it.

Installation was a breeze, but was hard ripping panels off my brand new car lol. Once you get the panels off its about 12 bolts and 3 clips away from victory.

Overall: 5 / 5

I highly suggest buying one from ft86speedfactory.com :)
