i have had mine ordered for well more than a month, but Tim has kept me informed with problems with getting the wastgates and with getting the adaptor plates made, also he has apologised for the delay on quite a few occasions now, i fully expect to receive the wastegate in the near future as i have bought from Tim before with no problems, i am just trying to be patient without sending too many emails on the subject!!

In Tim's defense (not that he needs one), there has been backlogs and shortages on many items from the main suppliers in the industry. Nothing can be done about it except to wait....

First off, Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! Ok we have some Tial wastegates here and we are in the process of CNCing some adaptor plates.We were farming out the adaptor plates to a local shop but they hjave been unable to fulfill our demands so we bought our own CNC.We are now making these plates in-house along with some other things like fuel rails, turbo drain plates, etc......So we expect to have finished the first run of 25 sets of plates on Friday of this week(no four day weekends for us).So that is what is going on.



On another note......we would be interested in making more parts on our CNC so........if you guys have any ideas, we would love to hear about them.

Hi Tim,

Still no news from you unfortunately
What's new about the plates ? Did you manage to get/build some ?
When do you plan to deliver the wastegate + plates ?

Thanks

Seb

Sebastian and Graeme,



Your wastegates will be to you this coming week.The plates are finished.I am also going to send you one of our new MBC pressure relief controllers(when they are finshed on the CNC) because of the delays.
