    Okay guys i new to the turbo world and always hered good things about turbo daves so i called him up and he talked to me and we picked out my turbo which is a borgwarner s475 and this was on feb 11 2011! I paid for it that day and he sent me a invoice to my email about a hour after the order which i was really happy about and told me the turbo would be there prolly not that monday but the next because he has to send the covers out to get machinend for the 75 wheel i said okay cool thanks alot! well two weeks go by and nothing! so i email him and ask whats up and he emails me back and tells me he called the place that machine his housing and the dude that normal dose it had broke his colloar bone couple weeks back but he is back at work and was backed up but said he would try to get it finished to and shiped to me at the end of the week i said okay cool! well two more weeks go by and nothing and i emailed him and called and left messages and nothing!

    what should i do guys? I called my bank today and they said i can come in and fill out so papers and they can protest the charges to my account and most likely get my money back since i never recieved my product but i want that to be the last result! should i give him more time or what! im i going about this wrong?

    Shit happens, and sometimes its out of control of the vendors. I'd personally give him a little more time.

    I always use a credit card with buyer protection, that way if my product never makes it I call and let them deal with it (like ebay purchases) luckily in all the years it has only happened 1 time to me. I would think if you cannot wait for the product he would refund the money without to much hassle since he missed delivery date by so much.

    ya that and he has had a lil bit of a health issue here and there along the way also so he is def trying to keep things rolling so give him a lil more time between that and the vendor issue just my .02
