Getting parts for these cars is like X-Mas throughout the year

BTW - I had my S in for service yesterday and I had to drive around in a standard clubman............ughhh! I thought I was going to die on the expressway as I tried to pass people.

 

Hi Hector, is it possible my Down Pipe is on its way to get heat coated? Maybe? Fingers crossed

 

 

diego is the dog, and hector is the shop owner. LOL you've got it backwards.

 

Ya I know, I was being a smart a**. Maybe thats why he hasnt responded to me. I was just kidding Hector. I know you are the man

 

I laughed.

 

I laughed reading that post. Diego's **** is truly a blessing! Hows everyones DP coming along?

 

dunno about the DP's, but my catback is finally finished & on its way first one off the new jig.

 

Nice! I want to see how the new catback style looks since mine is slip-fit.

 

Hi Hector, 10 days and no update. I am waiting patiently. Do you have an ETA on my down Pipe?

 

So Hector basically makes a sick a** down pipe with no CEL issues and then disappears? Where are you Hector? I was hoping on getting a DP too!

Any of you guys that put money down at least try calling him on the phone?

 

Ya I payed in full, I just tried calling him today. No answer so I left a message. Hes probably on Vaca or something. I have been watching him since he got on here, he seems stand up to me. But I did pay with credit card, so if in the end he never gets back I can always dispute it. But im sure he is around, I just hope his health is fine. Come back Hector, we miss you...

 

Should i go over to the shop with a crow bar? Its only 30 min. away.

jk, hector would destroy my puny self. but hector is a pretty good guy, i wouldn't expect him to ditch you guys. if any of you have paid and need his cell number, PM me.

 

No one is implying that, Like I said he is either on vacation or sick, Im sure. The thing that sucks is Im waiting to get my tune untill I put on the DP. and I cant wait to see what kind of power I can get out of my settup.

 

I think he's just buried with work, no time to chat on the internet, I got my Fedex tracking information in a very brief email today.

 

FYI, I had an email from Hector yesterday. I have a R56 cat-back pending.

He has been swamped with family doing things around Orlando, so the vacation comment above is spot on.

I think his note said he only has to weld my exhaust up, so I hope to see a shipping number in the next week or so. Remember he is not a factory, he is a "two person shop", per his comments to me.

I'm looking forward to see what my unit looks like and the sound.

 

Nice, thanks for the update. That means mine is getting closer

 

I wish I could get in touch with him, I've got a tuning date with Jan in 2 weeks. I'd be willing to drive the 7 hours to get one from him. I called his number but it's disconnected and I hadn't received a PM back from him.

I just talked to Hector, he is at work and answering the phone. He has had a ton of people visiting him in Orlando. But he is hard at work. My Down Pipe is at the ceramic coaters, Whew hew . Thanks Hector

He said he just hasnt had any time to update the forums. I told him, you just build your exhaust parts and I will let the people know whats going on

 

What number did you use? I dialed his number on his website???

Thanks,

Mark

 

When you said his number was disconnected I panicked and called him right away.

He answered second ring, are you dialing one first?
Just kidding.

 

I dont have hectors downpipe, but I must say.... downpipe FTW =] sound and power! sweet

 

That's GREAT. I just called Hector. I'm driving to FL this weekend to have him install a downtube and entire exhaust system.

Does anyone have a sound clip of his full exhaust?

Thanks,

Mark
