can't get ahold of Delteq

Does anyone know what's up with Delteq?
I've been trying to reach someone there for the past three weeks. Calls always go to voicemail, but the recording says the inbox is full.
Has anyone heard anything?
Thanks,
Kory

Welcome to the club man. I had a delteq setup on my car and the ignition module went bad. Tried to contact them for many weeks then gave up and went back to stock. I'm currently saving for the ltcc setup.


What a waste of $600+ dollars...

Be nice to know if there is trouble over there.. Just put delteq on my car a few months ago.. working fine for now but support is a big deal with us performance types.

Keep us updated if you find someone home.

Your module went bad too. I thought I was the only one. The crazy module is over 250 from autozone, and over 400 from gm. Wish I would have known that before I bought the delteq. The ltcc doesn't use a regular module. The ls1 coils have built in modules.

This is what went bad on my delteq setup. The plastic is very low quality and warps easily as you can see, which in turn will damage all the electronics inside. So basically now I have a coil setup and a bunch of useless wires.

If they were at least reachable and would offer a solution, I wouldn't be so upset.

So buyers beware, delteq service is nonexistent, and quite frankly their product isn't nearly worth the hype/$$

Are your coils/module in working order?
If so how much do you want for them

Interesting.... the guy who designed the Delteq also designed Electromotive's SDI/Opti-Eliminator. Had the same problem with him at Electromotive.... suddenly lost interest in the product and never would respond.

Glad i never went with the delteq. I even had the coils but luckly I sold them to an asshat.lol

yeah i got the already cut to length wires for the OVC setup and they are GARBAGE. yeah they have a lifetime warranty, but obviously that doesnt help when they do not respond.

Not good, bought mine through Pace also however.

When you look at the site and see:

Peter Visser, Mechanical Engineer: Pete has been moved to an undisclosed location.

That looks like a joke, however my investment in their system isn't laughing.

Sounds like y'all are dealing with shady **** from people that don't give a damn. Their rep is being torn apart like this.

I just bought a new module/coil for the opti. If it runs with that I will probably get the msd and be done.

By MSD you mean cap and rotor not the $500 mistake everyone likes to push right?
