ESS Supercharger Leadtime

Hi Fellas... just wondering how many of you decided to supercharge your car and how have been your expirience.

I ordered an ESS kit on Dec 2018 and I am still waiting delivery. I ordered it through a third party and so far my expirience has been horrible. In Feb I started following up on the kit status and all I got is lies and misinformation from customer support. Im so frustrated that I am considering giving up and request a full refund.

Not sure what to do... mixed feelings about the whole situation.

Are you getting the run around from ESS or the dealer?

That's unfortunate you were getting the run-around from a vendor. It may have been relayed from ESS to the vendor which was then passed onto you.

ESS uses the gen 3 now. They have been for over a year

Post the info of the vendor.
I get so many PMs asking for a kit but I decline those request due to what you went through.
5 months wait what a joke. I can TT a Lambo in 2 weeks.
