TPI Parts .... EXCELLENT!!!!

I just got a bunch of stuff from Angel at TPI Parts. He was extremely helpful, knowledgable,and EXTREMELY fast on my order.I got all the O-ring kits for my fuel rail, fuel lines, & Injectors, and new Runner Gasket kit & Tool for my SLP runners.The GM o-rings he sold me were CHEAPER than from my local dealership By ALOT! (plus they didn't have them all in stock)
I had also got a Fuel pressure Regulator (the TPI Parts Billet one) last week after calling in for an order. I assumed it was the whole kit with the diaphragm from our conversation, but it wasnt. When I got it, I called and explained it to Angel, and he was nice enough to offer me a refund without re-stocking charge. HOW MANY COMPANIES WILL DO THIS WITHOUT AT LEAST EXCHANGING FOR SOMETHING ELSE?
I did return it, and baught all the o-ring kits & gaskets in exchange.He even sent my new order on my word that I would send back the regulator the same day he sent my stuff in exchange. (which I did).
Try getting THAT KIND OF SERVICE AND TRUST from ANY PHONE ORDER!!!!
I absolutely reccomend TPI Parts, and will do more business again.
A++++ service. He bent over backwards to help me.
He even gave me cross reference #s on stuff I could get locally, and technical advice on problems I had with my TA.
Thanks again Angel, Your'e the BEST!
SUPPORT THIS COMPANY.... YOU WILL BE GLAD YOU DID!!!!

I've used them a few times before, and always had good dealings with them. Most of their Delco parts are cheaper than the stealership, plus they ship out fast.

Re: TPI Parts .... EXCELLENT!!!!

I ordered a TPI bolt kit from them and it was really nice... had all the bolts neatly seperated in small bags and labelled clearly. Very nice!

Re: TPI Parts .... EXCELLENT!!!!

I tried calling to place an order, but got no awnswer. they have some strange business hours. I plan on calling again, just haven't yet.

I'm glad to hear its a good company to deal with, since I'm so far away.

Agree, I've never called them, but have ordered via their web site a couple of times for products I couldn't find anywhere else. Price was good and delivery was fast.

Re: TPI Parts .... EXCELLENT!!!!

Angel and TPI are the best, hands down. I've bought a lot of stuff from him. I either use TPI, Summit, or Modern Muscle. I like Angel's company best.
Just got my wiring harness rebuilt by him. He was very communicative and made sure he fixed my wiring up as I wanted. He will always help you out.

Re: TPI Parts .... EXCELLENT!!!!

Have to throw in another vote for the service at TPI parts, never had a problem getting hold of Angel on the phone either when I'm ringing at odd hours from aus.
