450 times how many units? I doubt it is equal to one persons car. They are dealing with tons of people on ONE product, not finishing an engine. It isnt ust about me, but seriously give me abreak. The lectro polish was a gimmick to delay the shipping. It wont change the performance and they think they are doing us a favor by doing so. Whatever happen to the option of choosing electro or not? I bet the majority of the buyers would have opted to not have it polished and get the units 2 months earlier. Its just bad business that is all.

But please be welcome to your opinion. BBB will soon be involved........

Oh and what he is doing has nothing to do with the number of people waiting on their header. Can you say discrimination. Money tied up or not, its all garbage. He chose to have his car down and build something unreal. Wouldnt they have more time to complete his project if the headers were gone and done? Or maybe not run a special with someone's car there with thousands in it on a dream project.

"by the way guys we are running a special, but due to an extreme car project and a not optional electropolish finish, we will ship in four months" Thats the truth which should have been stated on the site. we are all waiting for this unit to complete certain tasks. Not just HP but tuning, increased nitrous, etc..... To hold the orders on one person car is ridiculous.

Leave them alone man. Again your starting a fight your not going to win. They are giving free services and I would have chosen to do the electro polish. Its not a gimmick. They are giving you a superior product and things take time and there are complications some times. Thats life. Stop comparing these headers to Rod's car. I dont care if there are 2000000 headers times the $450. There are priorities everywhere. They need to get the headers out, they need to finish both Rod's motors. All you doing by comtinuing to complain is creating more problems.

I understand people are angry but JBP is not going to walk away with your money, you will get the most superior header on the market. Give them a break.

I swear, chevy should have given away bricks of cheese with the cobalt to go with all the whining I hear about my parts arent here the day after I order them, etc, ect.

Again we well now you, are lucky that anyone ver even bothered to take on the aftermarket for these cars.

YOU WILL GET YOUR HEADER.

oh and by the way if you look hard enough you could have found the JBP phone number, I would leave it here but I would prefer I didnt facilitate you calling and yelling at the guys trying to work hard on the products. That would be something else that would delay deliver

Question Shipping

No need to call, I wouldnt expect an answer. Just bad business......Take on an order that can't be handled is a problem. But let me just get one thing straight.... Ur telling me that an order placed at the beggining of April should not arrive until July?

Thank you SSLOW. at least someone agrees.....

First off it's business. Period.
Oh and OMEGA. Rude or not, Did YOU get asked for the electropolish to delay delivery 2 more months??? Im the only one sticking up for bullshit.

I never said that an order in april should take till july. I said quality takes time and complications arise as well as things getting slowed down by outside forces. There are more things going on then just the headers, you cant seem to understand that

Im going to go with the old statement, you should have bought a honda, that way all of your parts are a dime a dozen and most of the time in stock

That's it... rant time...

First, JBP got crucified for months becasue some dick weed told everyone that their header didn't fit.
So, they offer it to every one at an incredible price... although the lead time is very long (which we were all told about well in advance).
Now, people seem to get their ******* panties in a bunch as when it takes a few weeks to get made and shipped out.
**** PEOPLE! Custom built parts are not simply stored on a shelf!
And on top of that... shipping from Canada to the US is not simply a week long, we have to deal with your tight customs, due to anti drug trafficking and anti terrorism laws.... thank you much.

With that said, not everything revolves around your ******* header. In case you guys are out of the loop... there is a very expensive build going on there, that has been put on a time line.

Quit ******* bitch, or get out!

No, it's you being a whiny bitch.
I did not ask for it, as it was part of the group buy. We were told weeks in advance. Maybe you should check in every so often.
There is no bullshit here.... what's what makes you think that your $400 is a bigger priority than a everything else. Like every other project, or having to run the business itself.
Grow up dude, or at least learn how manufacturing works.

Like seriously.. this is why I canned my intake manifold... because I don't want to have to deal with all you crying girls on here.

Calling names shows the maturity. Its BAD BUSSINESS. WHAT don't you understand about that. YOU tell a person a date, that date gets outdated by months, there is a problem. So ur little posting rants which are trying to get me to ball up in alittle corner is minor from the faxes being sent now. Keep talking omega, its in one ear, out the next.

Im guessing you go on all the forums of bands, and game manufacturers that delay the release of the album or game because of un forseen complications or things that just took longer then anticipated. Hope you get paid to complain all day long about delays in manufacturing and production

Wowo hilarious. If your so into the way business works youll know that the BBB, is not going to do anything in the near future except put a tiny little tick next to the name, and thats only if they are registered or recognized by the bureau.

You just need something to whine about and you found something. Your the reason vendors get bad names for no reasons except to cause problems and have the last word.

yes but did you read they are not recognized by the BBB

and you have now lost on that side of the battle, any more you woukld like to start

just cause they are in there doesnt mean that the BBB will do anything, just means they know of the business, and in this case the BBB does not recognize them as a member, so they will not act on complaints

also if you are so smart and you found them in the database, which is very easy to do, you should see that there are 2 phone numbers.

Basically you just need something to complain about, thats your problem.

I'm not calling names per-say... i'm merely pointing out the fact that your don't have a clue.

If you wanted something quick, you should have bought it off ebay.... if you wanted a quality precisely built part, you have to wait for it.

Ask the guys who bought the Rebel intakes, they all had to wait for the lead time, but love the amazing quality of a hand built part.

I don't like the how long it is taking to get this header. But I wanted it for a long time and just kept waiting for it to go on sale. Now I just have to wait for it to get here.

Omega, sorry to hear that you are backing off of the intake manifold. Honestly though, I didn't understand how the whole process worked before. And I am (was) one of those waiting for the rebel intake, where they also sent me the wrong package at first. Having to wait blows, because I have other things that were waiting for this but let the product speak for itself. Make the judgments then.

Hopefully, those of you that are savvy fabricators would change your minds and help out those who could really use the parts that you envision. I still don't have anyone around here that I would trust to work on my manifold and have been waiting patiently for someone's mental light bulb to light up. I'd gladly sent it off to someone on here that has the ability to do it. I don't but I also don't mind to pay for something done right.

Well, I'm still going ahead with the design of it... I just won't be publicly selling it.
You and a select few other people who have shown a keen interest are still going to be kept in the loop. I'll be keeping you guys posted in the coming months.

yea guys, i only asked for a tracking number because i have to schedule 3 other dates that rely on when i get the header. other than that, i would have never bothered, just think that they are shipping out 50+ for the gb and probably even more of them if ppl bought after and they have victorys car... thats a good bit to do and for them gettin out all the gb headers id say thats pretty damn good thing to say about them, regardless of if we got a tracking number or not... i am not and would not be disappointed

Yo thats exactly what im saying all this comotion and we dont even know for sure what the header is capable of doing ! All this wait regardless of the cause has got to be worth it !
