July 22nd 2006 - Important Announcement
We regret to inform you that JTuners is temporarily suspending most of our operations, as you know them today, until we secure a more reliable manufacturer of our highly customized piping to meet our quality and delivery standards. We simply lack the capital to invest in the type of equipment and labor necessary to produce these items in-house.

During this (hopefully temporary) suspension, we must scale back to operating on a very part-time basis. Thus, effective immediately, we will no longer offer the entire variety of J-Body performance parts we’ve carried in the past, instead focusing exclusively on the unique products we offer. We encourage you to shop for the other products with our good friend, Karo, at CarCustoms.net and will make it easy to do so through our web site.

We will continue to offer our 2.2L/2200 OHV and 2.4L DOHC turbo kits, as well as the SplitSec tuning solution, Yank converters and Patriot heads - however only under the revised terms and conditions. We realize these terms may not be satisfactory to many would-be customers, but we refuse to make promises we cannot fulfill. We will also continue development of the Ecotec kit currently in progress, but have no estimated release date at this time.

With regards to contacting us from this point forward. We can ONLY return calls 888-JTUNERS (588-6377) or respond to emails pertaining to JTuners turbo kits, Yank torque converters, SplitSec fuel/timing calibrators, Patriot heads or pending orders. We will no longer be able to advise on rebuilding engines or the merits, performance or specifications of products other than the above. We’re very sorry, but we simply will not have the ability to do so operating in a very part-time manner – and PLEASE be patient with us as it may still take a few days to respond. Emails are easiest for us to respond to by the way and you’ll get faster responses via emails than phone calls.

We deeply regret having to take this action, as we’ve truly enjoyed serving the J-Body community exclusively and wish to thank all our customers and assure them we’re still around for questions and/or advice (although it may take us a few days longer to respond to calls or emails).


That's what I think about it.

What Hypsy is trying to say is that the only way you're going to get one of their turbo kits is if you find three or four other people to cough up the cash to buy kits for their own cars too. J-Tuners has implemented a policy requiring a minimum purchase quantity before they will fill an order.

So the next place to call for a really nice kit is Hahn. Or build one on your own.

No what I'm saying is JTuners is closed. They aren't even working off their 5 kit thing anymore.

HRC doesn't make a 2.4L kit anymore. The one they used to make never sold and never got the respect it deserved so it was pulled. Gotta build your own if you have a 2.4L basically.

Well then. Lol.

Last time I read the thing on J-Tuners (maybe 2 weeks ago) they still had the minimum order going. Must not have updated their site at that point. Too bad Hahn doesn't sell the 2.4 kit anymore. I wasn't aware they stopped. But then I don't have a 2.4 anymore so I don't really keep up on the parts availability like I used to.

Sh$tty.
