 Gecker!
I just want to post up about my experience with the folks at Gecker. I saved up and finally ordered my exhaust for my 35. When I called up to ask a few questions and order it the guy I spoke to was very helpful and knowledgeable. Cool. Got the order placed, the pipes shipped the next day. Got them, and I received ones for a 23. No biggie (I hope) so I called them up to see what needed to be done. I believe I spoke to Sheldon. He apologized several times, told me they would ship out the right ones (that day) and send a call tag. UPS picked up the pipes and the day they got back down to FL (tracking them on the ups site), mine showed up just up like he said. Man did everything he said he would. Heck, he didn't have to ship them till the wrong ones got back to his shop. If I didn't read of the problems here, I'd say, actually I will say hes a good guy to do business with. I know theres a few here just hammering on him but thats why I put this up to say he does good things too. I will be doing more business with him in the future. Now I have no incentive to say nice things about him but I just felt its fair cause everyone reads about his mistakes, so I figured I'd post up how my dealings we good.

 Re: Gecker!
I just ordered some pipes for my rig didn't have any problems getting them. Will say they they need someone in charge of quality control. My pipe had some spots that needed to be welded better but I didn't minecause I'm gonna reweld the whole thing anyways.

 Re: Gecker!
The pipes look bad ass they just need to spend five more minutes for a quality check.

 Re: Gecker!
My welds look good for the most part like I said they just missed a lil spot while welding one of the pieces. But as far as being functional they are 100%

 Re: Gecker!
It sounds like Gecker has a love hate relationship with thier customers. Customers either love or hate them.

 Re: Gecker!
I saw ballers pipes last night. They look OK and hopefully they preform and the welds don't bust but only time will tell. I know when I spend my money I want my sh!t to look good and not like something built in a highschool shop. JMO!

 Re: Gecker!
Finally got around to bolting the pipes on. They sound really good. Haven't hit the water yet, hopefully soon. I might bolt the stock back on to do some actual comparison runs. Not sure yet as the lower bolts are a real pain the azz to get tightened. If anyone has any tips, I'm all ears. Half tempted to get some allen headed bolts and use a ball ended allenwench next time.
