Charlie is a badass welder. Sheepey does a lot of EVO setups. You will see them popping up more and more.

Well my car is SLOWLY coming together since I have changed my mind a few times during this build. An update on my Sheepey hot parts though... the downpipe didn't connect to the test pipe-exhaust, it just came off the elbow joint and cuts off to the side. Not what I ordered and was told by Sheepey built to send my ENTIRE hot parts kit back to fix just the down pipe. The O2 dump tube is right against my radiator, not sure if thats a huge issue if i have it heat wrapped.

I purchased a full hot parts kit and i/c from sheepey some time ago...

ill just say this......

Alex is one of the nicest and coolest guys to talk to. great guy.

when it comes to stuff fitting perfect... or getting stuff shipped quickly... not so much.
it took months to get my last set up from him. Keep in mind....... it was all custom stuff... but still i thought it was way to long when he promised 8 -10 weeks to begin with.

he always answered the phone, always emailed me back.. .but just never really came through on the time line i wanted.

the looks of the hot parts kit is fabulous... who else makes bad A stuff like this... Rad dumps out the hood.. good stuff.

the dumps didnt fit right tho... i sent them back to him last week. they arrived yesterday for him to modify and get back to me quick so i can get the car back on the road.

im crossing my fingers they get shipped to me quick.

Join the party! My mistake was to ask him to make me a FF kit for a Tial housing. It's obvious he didn't have one since none of the v-clamps used fit properly and the charge pipe didn't reach the Sheepey intercooler either. Months of wait and back and forth emails and I had to take the car to a local shop to fix the issues and got an ETS intercooler. Would I do it again? Not worth it for me. If I was local to him, then yes!

They are good people, lots of experience but the execution lacked, esp with customer support! If local yes no problem, but I'm not boxing entire kit up to ship on my dime to fix a issue they created. Now I'm in the same boat, going local to get it fixed and spend more money then I needed too.

Sent them a message a week or two ago AGAIN to see if they would fix my downpipe they didn't finish and have not heard back, granted this project I am working on is taking forever and I ordered the kit in 2013 but it is a HUGE pita to figure out who will fix their mistake. I can't see boxing up the entire kit to fix this one pipe, it is sheepey's design so I would imagine they could get this knocked out quickly. But the old sane I guess, 'you get what you pay for'.
