Thumbs down Full Throttle Performance Parts!!

I got the link off of www.turbov6camaro.com so I thought I would buy some stuff from ftpp.net. I ordered a set of plug wires, 3 coils, and 6 packages of 2 spark plug boot covers. I got 4 different packages on different days. 1 box was just the plug wires. 1 box was the 3 coils. 1 box was 1 package of spark plug boot covers. 1 box was 4 packages of boot covers. So I never got the last set of spark plug boot covers. I called and e-mailed hims numerous times and he always says he will get another set out to me, but I am yet to see the last set. :banghead: I ordered them June 27th. Today is Sept 20th. So I guess I'm going to just give up cause it doesn't look like I'll ever get the last set. So now I guess I will be riding around with 10 boot covers and not 12. I'm going to try to find somewhere else to order them. Cause I'm damn sure not gonna order anything else fom him. Just thought I would vent a little a let some more people know about it. Sorry!!

well keep in mind, josh doesnt have a warehouse. he puts the orders in with the different companies. if you got 4 different shipments, you ordered 4 different brands.

i had a GREAT experience with him. i got a comp cams k-kit for my red camaro. he actually called me to verify that i wants 1.6 rockers. everything showed up quick and the only problem was that comp sent me rockers hardware oh 3/8" instead of 10 mm, which after a quick call to comp was resolved.

I ordered my Wings West kit from him along with a bunch of performance stuff for my 3.4 back in the day. I never had any problems. I'm sorry to hear about yours. Of course I ordered back from him before he changed names and there was still the other co-owner.

I don't think that that will help, I have called and talked to him on the phone and threw e-mail, and it still hasn't gotten me anywhere

Yea, I know how he does it, it's through drop shipments, but I ordered 3 different brands not 4, and I still didn't get everything. And he hasn't fixed the problem.

I've never had a problem with him. He even helped me put when JET was taking forever to send my underdrive pulleys (took them 6 months!) and asked if would rather go with the cheaper ASP set and he'd refund the difference.

... why in God's name do you need twelve spark plug boot covers? You have six cylinders. Spark plug boot covers protect the wire boots from being burnt by the exhaust manifolds/headers. Those other six ends, yeah, those go to your coils. There is no danger of them being burnt at the coil. Why would you even waste your money by buying twelve?

I know how many cylinders I have!! Thanks!! I know where the boot covers are suppossed to go!! But they will also fit on the coil side also. Not to protect them, but just to have a nice looking polished cover on them. There for dressing up the engine bay a little more. Trust me I know what I'm doing. My car is all for show, that is why I did this. All your smart comments still don't help the fact that I got screwed when I ordered them and didn't receive them all!!!!!!!!! Thanks!!!!!!

All those extra exclamation points really got your message across that much better. No, really. I'm serious.

Point taken. Not my cup of tea.
