Can't fault him for putting family first.
It is actually fairly normal as most guys who buy this header will not pay for before and after dyno's.

well, can you tell me how many are on his staff over there? That might answer questions on why it's taking so long.

There is also the possibility the system is behind and just hasent updated, that happens often too. Ive had package say they were electronically submitted and show no movement, then receive them and all of the sudden all the tracking and delivery info shows up. It happens
That's great...how can you have someone present sign for it, if you don't know when to expect it?

Just checked the tracking number and 24 hours later....no change.
Hmmmm. Is the system behind? Is the package still at ???

Can't tell anything...

I too have had items shipped both USPS and Canada Post, where it shows the initial activity and then nothing before it arrives.
As far as signing goes, it will just mean a trip to the local post office to pickup and sign for the package. After waiting this long, going to the post office won't hurt. Obviously JBP wants a record of everyone receiving these things so there aren't more problems.

Other members will thank you for that, even if they won't help pay

Have you sent JBP an email asking about 6 others getting this tracking info but not you?
I was under the impression that JBP only knew of 6 not 8 headers and I have no idea of who's who.

Looks like it may a courier service though (Purolater Internatioal) so I have no idea on where their "local" pickup may be... But we'll see....

hmmm... I have not. I did send them multiple emails requesting information as to when my header would ship. pretty much got the same general email everyone else got. "headers will ship at the end of the month"

Pretty rediculous if you ask me.... im surprised they didnt send a tracking number to all their customers on this group buy. I'll shoot em an email to let em know. If I get another general response, I will be requesting a refund; I think it's only fair. I've waited long enough. I know your car takes up their time, and it being rwd is cool an all. But I could really careless about them serving you as a customer at this point... what about my needs? I paid too...

Thanks for the assistance Rod

Pretty lame that I had to do this on my vacation. But I honestly have hit a wall, and need something more than a blan/spat out answer.

email send to JBP TODAY


"Hello -



I apologize that I am constantly having to email you guys during your busy schedule with Rod's RWD cobalt, and other time consuming projects.



I ordered your cobalt/redline long tube header back in April. It has been 4 months now, and I really havn't had any detailed information as to if my header even exist.

I was under the assumption via the cobaltss.net forums that I was of the remaining outstanding 6. Apparantly the remaining 6 have already recieved their tracking numbers. And I'm not the only one who is having this issue as well.



If you would please take some time out of your schedule to please REALLY assist the remainder of this group buy and bring it to a closure, it would be greatly appreciated. And may even save a few or more customer relationships between you and the COBALT/REDLINE guys.


If you require any personal information of mine, please reply back and I will gladly re-submit you my information.

Otherwise, my email is my full name; if thats all thats needed to look me up in your database.



Thank you,

Steve Flit"

JBP asked for my order number. So I gave them that and my virtual reciept.

"Being lost in transport" is based off my own assumptions. I do not know if it is truely lost.
