I talk to the one guy all the time hes a great guy and has become a good friend. I would trust them though, they will make sure when you leave your car is running great. I plan on gettinga swap done in a couple months. Thats why my car is virtually mod less.

I have only heard of one issue with them and the lenth of time it took. After researching the issue myself i found that it was the customer's fault for rushing the swap. The customer grabbed a donor car without fully researching the car. Many parts were junk...

I'd be sure to find out if they are going to source all the parts for you. that way any error is on them and not you.

Yea and my friend ended up having to pay out of his pocket. I belive he said the block had a crack in it. Goes to show give him a good heads up so he can get a good donor car. If you have any questions email him from the site or pm and I can talk to him for you.

I personally wouldn't do it, there was a lot of problems going on with that store. I know some people got a fix for it, but he was banned from 2gn for it. Quite a bit of people on srtforums got stiffed as well for spoilers and leds.

i think the OP should read this thread before coming to any conclusions about the issue you speak of...

http://forum.2gn.org/viewtopic.php?t=24651&start=0

I don't doubt you, its just that i like to hear both sides of the story. Since he was banned, then we don't have his side. The thing is its the only place that provides this service. I have a buddy that will do the swap for you for probably less than that, but he is in Swansea, MA (He is a vendor on my forum)

There is a LOT. I listened to the guys on 2gn and SRTforums...he just seemed very shiesty. Neither honoring a refund, nor product.

A lot of vendors seem to be that way. They **** over their customrs for months on end, never giving them a product or their refund. It's really sad...I almost got screwed (of course no paypal support) but I managed to get money back.

Thats because people purchase parts from these small time vendors expecting service and parts to arrive as if they were buying from a huge company like Modern Performance. When in reality a lot of these vendors are literally working from their garage to bring us these parts...its also the vendors fault as well because they get in way over their heads with orders...

off topic but out of curiosity, is 13,995 for an 04 SRT-4 Flame red, stock, a good price?
