Actually they did not take the money up front....At RB Racing if you ask enough questions you find out that they make everything as it is ordered and exhaust does not seem to be their main product. In fact, I got the distinct impression that they really don't care about my little $8-900 at all. I guess their bread and butter is higher end custom turbos and other things?
There has been a ton of interest in their 2-1 on our dogs because they are supposed to be really great performance headers (mostly increases torque) and they don't look like ass. There have been some issues with how long it takes to get them. I have the unique opportunity, since my bike is down for 6-8 weeks, to see if they have gotten any better about their delivery time. Just trying to be helpful, shit I'm not doing much else all laid up.
It's not that I trust the "nice lady on the phone" its more of no bike and they haven't taken any money from me at all. Plus, I have exhaust to throw on if they take too long so they won't be keeping me from riding.
