RE: FRPP Kit vs. GT Take-offs?

sorry to hear about your jba dilema. the shop i had install my kit took care of it in about an hour. they did have to heat up and straighten it out a bit but they ended up getting it pretty dead on. good luck with your refund situation. be VERY VERY persistent with JBA but remember to stay sincere about it. try even complimenting the overall product which made it even more dissapointing that you got bamboozled. i did this strategy with another car product and got all my money back without it getting messy.

lol, good thought.

I'll definitely keep that in mind when I talk to them about it.

And in fact, initially I was extremely impressed with JBA, because the rep I talked to when I needed to special order it through my local place was overly helpful about calling them and setting it all up for me. Of course, at that point he was selling an exhaust and not taking it back, so who knows how that'll change.

Hopefully they're still pretty reasonable about the situation.

I don't understand how you are having so many fitment issues. Sounds to me like the wrong kit came or mismatched parts ended up in the box. I don't have the JBA exhaust, but I do have their headers, and the quality was spot on. Anybody else have this kind of problems with JBA kits? I know you must be pretty ticked off right now. You need to take pics of all the issues and post them.

RE: FRPP Kit vs. GT Take-offs?

sorry this is a 4 day old thread but i dont how the problems with the jba h-pipe are, could i get a better description of this? i was looking forward to buying this kit but now im freaked, so does the ffrp kit sound good with the x-pipe or would it be better to get another system with an H ?
