Problems with Stage 1

Okay, so while I was installing the kit I noticed one thing that is really bugging me. The wiring harness from "Racetronix" (whoever they are) looks like it wasn't made correctly. The firing order for the cobalt is 1-3-4-2, and the harness looks like it was made with the order 1-4-2-3. I installed the plugs on the correct injector (in accordance with the numbers on the plugs), but the harness looks like a rats nest. (wires look to short or to long) I've sent 2 e-mails and made 1 phone call with no reply. I really hope I hear from you guys because I'm satisfied with the custormer service so far, I don't want this to turn ugly.

The next step for me would be to modify my old harness with the EV1 plugs, I then would expect some money back.

Can anyone explain this one to me?

Thanks?

Car is sitting in the driveway, not driving it because of the code and harness. I'm about 1 day away from ripping that kit out and sending it back.

Still no communication with Rebel.

ATT: Rebel Auto Worxs

Here are the codes that poped up when I plugged in the scanner as mentioned in my e-mail but in more detail:

- P0300 Random misfire (probably when I was running the harness the wrong way, they are not coming up anymore)

- P0315 Crankshaft Position (CKP) System Variation Not Learned (I'm not sure about this one but alldata says the crank will re-learn it position after 5 warm up sequences) This happens on start up and keeps poping up

- P0172 DTC P0172 Fuel Trim System Rich, This just looks like you tuned the mixture up to rich, its an easy fix and I'm not to worried.

Please respond

HELLO!!!!! REALLY????? WTF MAN????

Its been 3 days since my last e-mail, don't tell me that you didn't get my e-mails or you've been busy. I've been sending them to you everyday along with these board posts. Your communication was awesome before I paid you, then it stopped after the transaction was completed.

Now I have to hire someone else to fix your **** up because you simply won't communicate with me. I've been more then accommodating to you and now I've had it. A good tuner stands by his product and makes plans to fix mistakes, you don't, so what does that make you.?

WTF man, thanks for ******* up my car. And you welcome for me doing a parts run for you because you didn't have the correct pulley when I arrived. Thank **** I didn't need a tensioner, or the whole trip to your shop would have been a waste. There is an hour I'll never get back.

Thanks everyone on this site for helping me with this install, because Rebel didn't. Really, you guys helped out a lot.

From what I saw in their shop a week ago, and from what I'm hearing now. It leads me to belive that they are on their way out. Noone is buying **** from them anymore
