Another satisfied LPE customer here - Ed and the gang installed an intercooled Magnuson on my '04 in October - did a great job and I was well taken care of. Bob

Thanks for all of the support guys, and everybody that feels the need to jump on here and post negatively, thank you too! you are the reason we try so hard to please everyone. Just think, if we can make the negative people happy, then we will be perfect!

Well I just got back from trailering my '02 roadster down to Lingenfelter and the place and people are very impressive. Tim gave my and a buddy the full tour. They seem to have the process dialed in and just the shear volume made me feel very comfortable. The whole place seemed well organized and I am looking forward to their expertise. Hoping for 450rwhp with the head and cam package along with the long tube headers, intake, x-pipe, tuning, etc. I will keep this forum updated.

I had problems with them pulling the same crap when they did porting work on my ZR-1. To make it short the work sucked, they took twice as long to do it as promised, never returned calls, and when asked questions on the work done the response was " that is the way we do it". Had to send the parts off to be redone by another vendor. I would not send anyone to them.

I have a large deposit down on a package, and I cannot even get a return call or return e-mail in anything under 2 days. Does that seem odd? If I ran my business that way I would be closed in a month. One of my e-mails, which was actually a request to add to the order, took NINE days for a response. I would really love to hear from someone that has worked with Lingenfelter recently regarding the health and status of the company. Thanks.
They haven't been "Johnny on the spot" sometimes answering my emails. But, alot of people don't check their messages as much as I do. Everytime I talk to them on the phone, they're there. Sometimes they're busy, and I call back. But, They're where they're supposed to be, whenever I call them!!! Oh yea, they've never given me the "bums rush" yet!
