Just another reason for me to buy xs power headers instead of kooks this fall . If I'm sending big money out for headers then I am not waiting months, once funds are sent I want my stuff asap

It doesn't seem to have anything to do with Kooks, appears to be due to who they were purchased through.

Thats not competent thinking. You are confusing the manufacturer with the vendor.

Wow! And I thought I had it bad when I had to wait 1.5 months for my kooks x pipe through this vendor. I wasn't in a rush and always got respond through them and was offered a discount on another item. I feel real bad for you guys. I hope you all get your stuff soon

Ordered in March and was told 6 weeks. Since the 8 week mark I have been told...

1. My headers are the next to go out.
2. My headers have been sourced through another supplier.
3. My headers have been sent out for coating.
4. My headers are going to be moved to the front of the line at coaters.

I still have no headers. Or X pipe. Or tracking number. Or expected ship date.

I ordered my wheels in March. Now the latest news from vendor (who I have to call for updates) has now told me the wheels will be in my possession June 22 or 23.

Yeah, sure.

These wait times are absolute bullshit.

Not same vendor, but just throwing it out there that another vendor is pulling the same crap. Can't believe vendors can do business like this.

This is the start of week 11 for me. They missed the 3-5 week estimate by a little bit...

That means either the headers are about to be here, or they are trying to minimize the refund people receive should they want out of this deal.

This is just ridiculous. Even if you had to wait for the steel to be forged in India, then shipped to the U.S., then the headers manufactured, then put on the back of a donkey to trek to your house at the top of a mountain.......


you would still have them by now......

But you can. He seems pretty practiced at this, threw some shady **** at me too. And told me he was offended that I didn't believe everything he told me.
