Say goodbye to Alphawerks crap

AW is totally crap;

Pros:
NONE

Cons:
Bad customer service
Bad QC
Bad product
Bad price




I bought a headers on Oct 02;

I've spent half month to deal with this crap

Yesterday, I decided to buy another headers instead.

SAY GOODBYE to AW, I will not buy any AW crap product again

I have contacted the AW and the seller several times; they refused to replace it for me

I am going to file compliant to BBB and paypal (to get my money back)

I have learned a lesson; for car parts, I will go for Comptech if I have money

If I don't have money and the parts is not important, I will go for the ebay brand (e.g. megan/OBX)

I know exactly what you're talking about. Had the same problem. Had it "REPLACED". I now put them on the car and it makes horrible exhaust sounds and resonates also. I told Carlos in the first place to provide a new set and he told me "you're getting a new header". he calls me later and tells me that he's sending the same header back "because it doesn't make sense to send a new one", I was speechless at the moment but he assured me that it will be good. NOT!!!

Right now I am really itching to create an Anti-Nexus website. And let people know what they're all about.

If they admit that they produce 4-5 defective pieces out of a 100 they should expect to loose some revenue on that and live up to their name by replacing the damn headers.

mang stones are the way to go.. they are the first headers to fit perfectly on the 1g 3.0 w/no mods.. i think i was the first one here with them.. also get the type s headers, which is what i have, not sure if it makes a difference with the fitment but the rear header has an "s" bend in it so 1 you know which one goes on the back and 2 they have been fitted and verified already.
