Good luck with that! I had received a partial kit.. missing a few odds and ends. We had initially worked out an agreement that the money owing.. I think it was around 500$, that I would settle for 300$. This was about 3 years ago. Contacted him every so often and he would write back (took a few weeks though) but it was always the same BS.

Funny thing is, is that I had always kept faith. He preached constantly about not being one of those vendors to just run off and fully intended to set things right.

I just gave up on the cause and classified Patrick as another $%?hole just like all those before him. My advice, move on and try to forget about it. You have 0.001% shot at getting something back for him.

His address is always listed if you want.. no phone number though

How does he have a 100% itrader rating!!?

[mac1]

the guy tried harder then anyone in this forum to turn things around after so much shit happened, i'll give him that. Still wish he was around just not trying his luck as a vendor.

I disagree, he never bothered to refund me even 25 dollars.

Last week I sent a certified letter to that address to see if anyone would take it but it appears he no longer even lives there.

This.

He wasn't one of those vendors that snagged a bunch of peoples money and then ran off. He devoted a great deal of his life, both time and money, to producing these kits. He had a great design idea and ran with it, unfortunately it didn't pan out which he was just as broken up over (if not more) than his customers. I was over at his house MULTIPLE times while he was scrounging up parts and money to set things straight with everyone. I can assure you he intended to do so but for reasons that I will not go into (it's not my place) he couldn't.

It just bothers me seeing people portray him as a crook, he was nothing of the sort. He lost much more in this business venture than any of you, trust me.

So if he isnt a "crook" why hasn't he gotten a hold of me to set things straight? Your telling me that he is so upside down on funds he cant even borrow someones cell phone and call? There is always a way only if there is a will.

what's he gonna say? he has posted about a lot of what happened and i bet it's his biggest regret ever. I was first to recieve and install his kit, first and only person to break the 1st gen shaft in the middle of Texas on my way home to Calif, immediately called him and he immediately contacted everyone to return or not use the shafts, not sure about everyone else but I installed the replacement shaft myself. He started sending replacement beefier shafts out to as many people as possible. This is prolly where everyone elses money went that still had not recieved anything.

So if he was a different person, stuff would have ended right there. The only part I regret is being the 1st person to install it, I really really wish someone else would have taken my place and found the problem before I did. I had to pay out of pocket to fix my housing twice at a machine shop because of reasons I dont even remember anymore. I even lengthened the housing on mine to put the bearing up against the pulley on the pass side. I had bearing issues up the ass, that i prolly had the kit on/off the car about 20 times in about 2 years I had it. I can honestly say it was the root cause of my back problems I have now but I was dead set on having it work.

He never gave me any sort of re-imbursement but then I knew others had bigger monies owed to them so I forgave him for it. I remember he started the 2.0L kits as a way to make funds to repay some of those people, not sure what happened though that was the plan. I remember talking to him about his stressed out he was and how much grey hair had had grown and how he lost his house and gf/wife, all of which I cant confirm but.......... Adlorin > probe addiction/PRD/CZT/PMO

that's my .02

p.s. i'm sorry if I sound insensitive to those in a deaper hole then I was.

hey if you still have anything KL worth supercharging, and are interested. I have a s/c mounting plate for the a/c location and i'll will give it to you so long as you dont come back around and sell it. You'll need m62 clutchted blower, long bolts, oil filter block-off plate and some piping obviously. just pay the shipping

[Jmalonejr93gt]

I don't know the guy. Nor have I bought any of his product. I feel for those who have lost money. But seriously fellas one man trying to be a vendor. That would be a great deal of stress. I have hoped that some others would try it cause these cars are so hard to find good aftermarket parts for. But in the same sense I understand that one person couldn't do it. It's too much. That's my 0.02 worth. Hope I didn't offend anyone. And again I am sorry for those who have lost money.

[mx7]

Is there anyone worth buying from anymore?

[Jmalonejr93gt]

Thats a good question...... I would love to have someone to get parts from....

[shaun708]

I'll say this, after reading thought this whole thread...if he did pop back up on the forums I'd be the first person pm'ing him to make me a kit. Regardless, there was no better kit made ever.
