Good points but your name does not do you justice. Did you even read the whole thread before you put in you 2 cents. SBR sounds like a bunch of nice guys but the way they are defending themselves is uncalled for. Go and read any of the other forums. As soon as the heat turns up SBR starts getting real defensive and NASTY. That is not right. Live up to things and change. Damn this thing sounds like Divorce in the making. Anyways I have nothing really to say about SBR because I have never order anything from them. You get shafted every where you go. Some of us got shafted bad by a local shop here. Not mentioning any name. I am glad it took about 6 months to get my stuff before things went south. SBR your reputation is following you from one forum to the next. Keep up with the way you are acting and soon there will be no forums left. GL on this forum SBR. No, I am not taking sides. I am just pointing out the facts.

Yep, I read the whole thing from start to finish. It's been a real long day at work after reading that. Anyways, the comment good points, but my name does not do justice, what does that mean? It's a damn screen name!
I agree about how people present themselves but the internet is so hard to read. How would you take it if you where going to a forum to try doing good and you where bashed? If I called your cas a pos you would get defensive.
Sure you shouldn't piss off customers and I agree there, but you also have to see both sides of the picture. I am not a SBR groupie or anything, I just wanted to point out some good things I noticed about them when I got my order.
Either way I just made a name here to show that I do have a good story from SBR and I will continue to buy from them. Good luck with all of this Mike and crew.

Re: Whatsup From Slowboy??!!!
A few years ago I purchased some spark plugs from slowboy, and somehow I guess I missed un-checking a box with the newsletter thing when going through the order. Now I can't unsubscribe from the fucking thing because the link just takes me to a broken site that says "Your Logo Here" So I've been just putting it in spam that last year or so.. fix it so I can unsubscribe please.

Re: Whatsup From Slowboy??!!!
I'm going to chime in here as everyone else sees fit to do so.
I have only had one transaction with SBR and that was the very 1st thing I ever bought for my dsm, a boost gauge and a MBC. I will not do business with them again because of all the negative things I hear about them. That may sound like an ignorant act but at the same time it makes perfect sense because there are allot of other vendors out there with little or no negative rep.
There is no other dsm related company out there with as much negative publicity as SBR. It feels like everyday i log onto talk or tuners or link there is someone criticizing or complaining about another SBR product or service and everyone that replies scolds them for using your company, how can you fix something that?
Not to be repetitive but your company sucks. I refer anyone who asks me about anything dsm related simply to steer clear of SBR instead of referring them to a specific vendor, not only have I said this many times I have been told this many times.

If you will not do business with us becuase of what you "hear", that is fine.
How was your transaction with us?

Your missing the point, everyone knows that word of mouth is one of the most powerful advertising tools but at the same time it can be devastating to a business if there are bad things said.
Obviously you know that there is something wrong with your company's reputation and you are trying to salvage what you can. Say i'm wrong whatever but everyone knows thats why your still on this board trying to see why we hate you and what you can bend to make it seem that your company is not that bad.
The single transaction i had with you was not a bad one but at the same time its not at the same caliber as spending thousands of dollars on turbos, short blocks, ect. and having issues with it then having to deal with your horrid customer service and ultimately being screwed out of time and $
I dont like you. I dont like the way you have conducted yourself on this board. I dont like the way your employees have conduced themselves on this board. I will no longer go on what i "heard" about your company, i will go on what i have read in this thread, is that a good enough reason for you now?

Sorry you do not like me.
I can honestly say I have never judged anyone the way you judge me.
I have to meet someone before I can judge them, and even then I am a bit cautious about being to quick to judge.
Go on judging people, and stealing from their bucket!

Re: Whatsup From Slowboy??!!!
Wow, 23 pages. This is great. Didnt read it all because I feel it is not worth my time.
But My first buy I made with them was for a bunch of stuff, rebuild kit some SS bolts and whatnot. I got the SS bolts and they were the wrong bolts, I was missing washers and missing bolt and wrong size bolts. Called them up and they said they had a new person doing the packaging. Wonder how many times that line has been used...

Spend your money at one of our local shops, the prices will be just as good if not better and you'll meet some new people in the process. At least one shop crew is at Applebees every week with us too, sometimes two.

Re: Whatsup From Slowboy??!!!
For those of you following what has been happening with my intercooler pipe it was delivered to Slowboy this morning. USPS.com confirmation # 0306 0320 0003 2201 5784. So far in their e-mails it appears they want to take care of me. They now have my intercooler pipe and the ball is in their court now. As promised I will keep everyone updated on what happens.
