Still dont have our product. Ken has pretty much disappeared, Business voicemail is full, wont return e-mails or PMs. Funny thing is, his account is logged onto here on HT everyday. he owes us $2209. And I know many others are in the same boat. If you are owed anything by Ken, PM Andy@AMR with your info and what is owed.

I am out $3000 with manifold and turbo

I had this problem in the past with Ken, but gave him a second chance as I was in need of this stuff within 2 weeks, and he promised it would be done. He kept up with me for 2-3 weeks..said it was almost done and was shipping out soon. I started calling last week and I couldn't get ahold of him anywhere...via Facebook, Email, Honda-Tech, and business phone. None-the-less, I cancelled the transaction with my CC company and contacted Full-Race for my order. These guys had what I needed IN STOCK and it will be here this week. Full-Race is top knotch and they will get my business from here on out, I suggest you guys do the same.

I do know they have been backed up for some time which makes me wonder why they are still taking orders when they cant get out the ones they have. I had a good experience with them, Hopefully Ken will get on here and also fix this mess. Its a shame because i have their setup and the manifold and everything is very nice hate to see another company go out like this.

I had good dealings with Ken but thats just me i dont have anything bad to say but if theres something going on people should know before investing thousands of dollars.

No concrete info that i saw other than his main welder quit. The rest is all speculation.

Also his dealers are screwed as well. I was contacted by ClubRSX.com today as well as someone at Church Automotive! This was basically a ponzi scheme of sorts from what we have gathered. Also this does not include the cracked manifolds he was sent and other parts which people did not receive back. There are also quite a few people who were sent kits with many missing parts, and only got partial kits.

I finally got it shipped when i said im calling my credit card company and im going to someone else.
dont take this as bashing as this was just my personal experience and i did get my full set up and the quality seems really good to me no problems or complaints on the setup. However with people posting of longer and longer wait times for setups it seemed this might come to pass i was just hoping it didnt. Ken always made time to answer any of my questions through my whole process of getting my stuff i hope there is a good outcome for this and maybe a reasonable explanation besides he bailed out on everyone.

Im not taking anyones side here, i cant really take a side anyway since Ken has yet to post up on any forum to defend himself on here or any forum for that matter or at least give a explanation which seems odd since if anyone ever said any thing against his company in the past he would post up with in a hour or so. To all who are out money i know everyone feels for you and hopes this gets resolved and someone has answers for you soon.

I have contacted him about 25 times since, and he said everytime "should ship in the next few weeks"

I also PERSONALLY met him, carried his bags from his car, and shook hands with Ken in April of this year when he flew out the Maryland. Here is a pic to prove I met the ***.




And he still had the ***** to lie to my face. If I knew this was going to happen, I would of knocked his short *** out right then and there.

So yea, one year later, after waiting and waiting and contacting and being patient, personally meeting him, I still have only a third of my kit. Thanks Ken. I hope you die in a fire.

It was nothing but lies and i caught him more then once trying to back track and cover a previous lie. Long story short after ignoring my calls and emails for months at times i finally threatened after about 6 months to call my credit card company and he finally sent me one of many bogus emails with tracking numbers and when the first box arrived the parts were incomplete and some of them were the wrong parts. The fit was horrible on the charge pipe and i had to do major modification. The A/C kit is terrible when it comes to fit and engineering. The distance between the A/C compressor and the downpipe is about 2mm which renders the A/C system useless practically. So after about 8 months i had most of my kit and I hope no one ever has to go through the same thing again.
