Thumbs down SP Diesel

Curious if anyone else is having probs with SP Diesel and customer support . Bought an Eliminator and a turbo timer on June 8 ,received both on July 2 !! After spending an hour climbing under the hood and dash apply power to box ready to see some serious power and NOTHING ........... bad box ..... !!! Spoke with Shawn said he would send a replacement and still no box and they will not return phone calls ............ getting real peeved here !!! Everyone beware I am out almost 500 clams and I am not letting this go away . Hope the moderators see this since they are an advertiser on this site to save someone else the frustration I am going through !!!

I'm not going to get into it yet, but I'm on my second box. Third is in the mail. If this one doesn't work.... three strikes and it's refund time.

Same story here. Finally got the timer to work.

But the eliminator did not work. Sent it back and still waiting. They said they would send out replacement as soon as possible. Been over a week. I don't know... starting to wish I would have bought quads box instead. Might end up having to do that anyway. Very bad customer service. If they are overwhelmed with responses, they need to hire more people.PERIOD!!!

Sorry to hear you all are having issues, I have had nothing but good experiences with my SP Diesel products. 422 rwhp out of the Eliminator is not to shabby, I'm sure you all will be happy once they make it right for you, sounds like they may have had a bad batch that got out some how.

My first box didn't work brand new. I'm already on my second. I'm now having a problem with boost (it's only stock levels not going above). They are also supposed to be sending me a new harness to correct a 111 code. It took a month to get my origional box back in May. I've been waiting on a new harness for over a month now. The only way you find out that there's a problem is by bugging them. They don't ever send you an email saying they recieved your order and it's backordered.

When it was working it was a great box but stock boost and a constant check engine light are annoying. Plus they're selling them for less on Ebay than you can buy them from their website?????????

Well this is looking worse and worse. I think I'm just going to request a refund I didn't spend $30K+ on my truck to plug a sub-standard product into it that keeps tripping the MIL and f's with my boost (I too had problems with boost not going over 25psi)

I had tried to order the Eliminator when it first came out and the order was cancelled by SP Diesel because they said they were have major issues with the electronics. At that time, I was offered a deal on the box when it became available. I decided to pass and it looks like they didn't get the problems fixed. As far as customer service goes I was pleased that I got my $$ back so quickly from SP Diesel. Given the history of problems with the box, I'd think they would provide the same service on the refunds.....
