I will not accept any money in advance as I am VERY VERY busy and am unsure when I will be able to ship your kit. rest assured I have not forgotten about anyone and I have a batch of kits about half done. I have very limited access to the required tools to finish fabrication at the moment, but I am in the process of negotiating for more time with the tools.

I will post back here when I have the current batch ready to ship.
i will apologize for that email and please disregard it. I have been pretty fumed about no correspondence. I understand busy please know that i do im going to school at night working during the day and trying to balance my family (wife and daughter) out in between all that. plus my max will be done soon and i dont have 2K to get it back. Im trying to find someone willing to lend it to me but im pretty screwed so ive been upset about that also. honestly an email on the status would have kept my cool. kev has been good about it with the pods and i havent bothered him once. however this is a bigger purchase and i get wary when i hear no correspondence, ive been burned on the net too many times and i thought maxima.org was a safe bet. When things started to go bad here i got defensive and pi$$ed. So all in all my offer stands if you need help with shipping for my kit ill try to help you out so i can get it faster cause the faster the better. Hope all goes well, im shutting up now. (for w bit anyway. LOL)

Update on Intakes:

Ok guys, here's an update:
John (little piggie) is coming up to visit January 4th threw the 6th. He's bringing the intakes up and we are going to finish the assembly on them. Personally I am aiming to have them painted and sent out on the 6th, but John wants me to specifically say that the assembly will be complete by the 6th, but painting is another story. He said he will be bringing materials to build atleast 5 intakes.


(I am also going to try to steal his welder and have him replace the studs on my car, I dont think he will go for it though)

Chad- Thanks, I was thinking about making him sleep in the garage, but then I figured he probably wouldnt sleep at all, he'd probably just stay up and tinker with my parts (maybe even reassemble/then deassemble my engine lol) .

Fosgate- Sure I doubt he forgot. Did you just order a MAF adapter or a full intake? He told me he'll be bringing some of the metal used for the plate part, and a 3" hole saw (I want one too ).

what can I do to the intakes that I help build... hmmm Maybe i'll paint the intake silver or black or something, mask off "MrGone", paint it red, then take off the tape. Then they will be MrGone Intakes (just joking with you guys).

Ok guys, I'm sorry to have to do this but... we were not able to get anything done John was not able to get the a hold of the welder before leaving. He still brought up everything incase we could get one around here, but it would have been to expensive to rent. We were even going to try painting them, but it wouldnt help speed things up at all since he would have to repaint parts after he welded, plus it wouldnt look as good as just one single coat.

Also he got up here a day late because he couldnt make it up from Vancouver, it was tooo icey, He just left about 20mins ago. He couldn't leave yesterday because of the ice.

I wish we could have gotten them out earily, but now it is back to John's origonal timeline.

(also I just want to say guys, don't get mad/fusterated/etc, John was just trying to get them out quicker than planned, but with out the welder it wasn't possiable. It was not a promise to get them out by yesterday, instead it was a goal.)

Oh well. I'm sure he will finish them when he can get the right tools. Hopefully it will be soon enough.

and for anyone wanting a refund, i am going to assume that john had to use all of the money for emergencies. so it is not there to give back. i cannot ever really know this, but have resigned to accepting that, too. and i am chill-pill about this. and realistic.

Guy's, I just wanted to let you know that he does have the pipes and all of that so if you have any doubts, dont. I should have grabbed a picture. It just is a matter of him having access to the tools to build them.

I just wish we that we could have worked on them while he was up here, it would have been cool. Also my neighbors must think I'm wierd, we had 3 3rd gens at my house. Good thing I moved the Mustang to my Dads house (crap, I forgot to show it to John ). We had my white 92, John's white 91(? i forget) and Anton's black 89 (although Anton wasn't over all the time). /OTness

I did order the entire kit. Everything was supposedly in the box ready to be shipped whenever he could find the weather/time to do it. Unfortunately he said you needed the maf adapter :-/

Wow, I should cruise the 3rd gen forum more often. Would of come to vouch for John sooner. He'll pull through. He did when it came to my CAI for my 2nd gen....which damn, if you guys haven't heard this thing, all I can say is holy crap. Just lotsa patience, and even more patience.

I've had...
damn... 11 3rd gens, 1 4th gen and 1 5th gen at my house. holy crap. Soon to be 2 more 3rd gens.

I need help
before I took the mustang down to my dads house, we had more cars than 'avaliable' driveway space (we could have fit 4 more cars, but then my parents wouldn't be able to get out of the garage in the morning).
