Yep, I agree. Stephen is a really cool guy and has a very good development car too, hehe. I have gotten two sets of speaker rings from him and they were both flawless with all needed hardware.

Keep at it man,
RJ

Another thumbs up for iaperformance. I had bought the speakers adaptor plates from him, and when the rear adaptors didn't fit right he retooled them and sent the retooled version out to me rite away. Awesome products and awesome customer service.

Hello All,

I wanted to chime in here...

I had ordered a part from Stephen at IA Perfomance and it turned out that the one he thought had been shipped was not what was correct as to what was advertised.

I wrote Stephen letting him know of this problems and I was waiting for the typical, "well, you have it so deal with it routine" or the complete lack of responsiveness that many seller's have.

To my suprise I got a the COMPLETE opposite. Stephen was EXTREMELY responsive and EXTREMELY concerned about the issue. He gave me a full refund and did not even give me any sort of run around I have heard many other people having to deal with.

I have been buying on the internet since 1998 and I have dealt with all kinds of vendors. I must say Stephen's response, concern, and quick action easily sits in the top 5% of my best experiences.

Hats off to Stephen... great vendor to deal with and a good person.

Kevin

Kevin- I'm happy to hear my reaction was well accepted. I hate mix ups (especially due to my error) and like to resolve them as quickly as possible.

Angry Stephen and IAPERFORMANCE

I ordered a Twin scroll kit and it arrived with two 50 gallon bags worth of punuts! Everything was nicely packed and wraped. Few days later I ordered a ABS pump, that I needed FAST and told him to send it out as soon as he could and send it fast. It was thursday I think when I called and orderd the used part. A Box from USPS arrived today and inside again is a heap load of penuts and a pump neatley wraped with foam on both ends Wasn't expecting the ABS unit until Tuesday but hey now I have a reason to skip work.



Thanks, keep up the great work!!

Thumbs up

Just ordered from Stephen and have sent several emails with questions relating to speaker installs. All have been answered quickly, sometimes within minutes! Very helpful vendor and if the adapter rings are half as good as the customer service, I'll be set!

Thanks www.iaperformance.com! Highly recommended.

Yea i bought an OBD relocater kit (which ironically i never used, lol) but it came in no time at all. It was much more of a "kit" than i pictured. Hell it had instructions which is more than i can say for every thing else i've bought. Not only that but i asked a few questions about his tranny swap into the wagon as i had a gc8 which was similiar. My questions were answered very quickly but most importantly they were thoughtfully answered. You could tell he took the time to read and understand my question and answer it fully. It's alot better than a "blanket" answer that is all too common with many vendors. Unfortunetly i haven't had the need to buy more stuff, but hope to have the chance in the future.

I've never evevn bought anything from IAPerformance, but I e-mailed Stephen to ask him about swapping JDM drivetrains into Wagons. He was polite and helpful, though he knew who was getting the sale and that it wasn't him.

Well, Stephen, she's done, V7 STi RA Spec C goodness shoved into every corner of my super-sleeper.

It's one thing for a vendor to support a paying customer, yet another to discuss pros and cons with someone just leeching information. Thanks, IAPERFORMANCE, and you're on my list of future vendors.

Oh, they are ALL envious. Of everything except the clutch chatter from my Exedy twin-plate...

I think that if I spend another dollar on my car in the near future, my girlfriend and a knife are going to have a surprise for me while I sleep. But I'll spread the word...

Ordered a completel Ver8 Longblock w/ twinscroll from Stephen. He found a freight company that wasn't going to charge me twice as normal becuase of my location that his normal freight company considers rural. Got it to me right on time before I left town despite the shipping setbacks. Very smooth service. Stephen answered all my questions quickly, and dealt with me calling him over and over again

Version 8 Engine is beautiful. Should have it up and running within the week... hopefully.

tim- good to see the project is progressing. Are you still doing the write up on the install? Our new site (almost finished) is looking for more tech articles to add. This one will be of great help to all other GC8 and similar subaru owners.
