Why not do research into the company your buying from before spending your hard earned? Hell, I've put in 50+hrs of research for injectors alone, let alone other parts needed for the Modular conversion into the AU.

i did but there is no where saying that he does not know what he is doing .have a look at his web site it looks very good ,way better than most turbo shops .he is very friendly on the phone ,and seams to know what he is talking about .if i would spend 50 hours researching every part that i buy then i would be in the grave before i would finnish the car .even then how do you know that you have done the right thing ?same as when i got the diff build i went with the dearest guy ($3050)that got recommended by lots of people ,and still did not get what i ordered .when i picked it up it was the wrong ratio ,and all they said this would suit me better .on the way home it was noisy from 55 klm -95 klm .when i phoned they said its my tyres .the original diff had no noise (only the bearings were stuffed .i also asked for my original gears back but they could not find them when i picked up the ute .what i am trying to do here is so that no one else gets burned ,and that everyone knows about this s**t head .if there was a warning about this guy i would not have been burned myself ,how can i research some one that has no bad reputation ? and most people that do a bad job do not stay open for long but it seems he has gotten away with it for to long .hope you get what i am trying to do now

Research the company and responses from customers to find out what they are like, and you get an indication of if you should deal with them or not.

wow how hard is ,there are no bad reports about the guy ,so how does anyone that has not dealt with him now that he is a bad business man . look you obviously still do not get what i am trying to do here .it sounds like that all the people before me that got burned did not care about it and left it at that ,but i actually give a s**t about it .i just do not want to here more people get ripped off like i did (SO THEY DO NOT HAVE TO SPEND 50 hours or so researching who they are dealing with
 .i have asked on this web page for people to come forward that have been burned ,but no one has .so if i would have asked is this a reputable dealer no one would have replied ether . no mater if i would have spend 51 hrs researching ,i still would not have found nothing .but you made me think why bother about it let some one els deal with it .it would be funny to here someone els go through what i went through .thats how i feel the other people have said to them self ,instead of acting to shut this guy down or at least warn people .its to late for me i do realise that .

Across several forums going back several years. |

Not sure if this follows forum rules - feel free too delete mods...
Just a couple I found real quick. People seem to have hit and miss with this guy, he's either completely awesome or completely crap. Just pointing out I have not dealt with him have only just seen various posts during my travels... http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthread ... id+systems http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthread ... id+systems |

But once I found the Injector I'm using, I then researched suppliers to find one that had a good reputation. As Deff showed, it isn't hard to find bad reviews about Rapid Systems, and I've found that with a few suppliers I looked at.
