Default Thank you Mina Galleries!

Mina Galleries is such a great place to do business with! It has probably been 5 years since I ordered things from him yet he remembered me and was a joy to work with. He gave me a spectacular deal on the pulley, intake and filter for my 2002 XJR. On top of that hes also sending me a tool so that I dont have to remove the coolant pipe from the car like I would with the Eaton tool I have for Cobra superchargers. That saves cash in coolant and seals and hoses plus a lot of headache! Cant wait for the new parts to arrive. Should really be able to hear the blower whine now! Before with my 99 I did just the pulley and filter and that really woke the car up. Cant wait to see/hear what that full 3" intake pipe does!

I hope your experience is different from my last 2 w/ Mina lol. Took forever to get anything shipped or even a response once paid.

Good luck & keep us posted.

FWIW, BBB has several complaints. Could be that 99% of customers are very happy & only a few have bad experience.

I've had nothing but good experiences with Chris at Mina but I'm local and have been to the shop many times. He even took the time over Thanksgiving weekend to install my supercharger pulley himself after I butchered the first one! He only charged me wholesale for the replacement and nothing for his time and labor. He's a real stand-up guy.

Huh, Chris always had good contact with me. Heck they didnt even charge my card till the day after it was sent out. Came last week and will prolly install it on Tuesday then bring it back to the dyno. But took about 7 days to get everything. Dont seem bad to me.
