Afte going to their website I still had a question or two. I called them and after discussing a few things, was quoted a price. The price seemed very fair especially since it was my understanding the price included the switch and ability to change between maps. I gave the guy my cc info and the deal was done.

I received the package promptly and with the help of a friend, the install of the pipes and stage 1 was easy thanks to very clear instructions. However, no dual map switch was included. I called my original salesman back thinking maybe that part was overlooked when the order was shipped. I was told that the quote did not include that optional accessory. After rehashing the original call/order placement he didn't remember it the same way I did.

I accepted the fact that I screwed up when I did not get the quote in writing before giving him my cc info and completing the purchase over the phone. So rather than bitch to Jaime, I let the matter go as it was my fault.

So, I did not blast them, rag on them or tell anybody not to buy anything from them. I simply suggested to the OP not to screw up like I did and make sure you know what you're getting and what you're paying for. This goes for any company not just Fuel Moto.

I am happy with the pipes/setup and accept the lower mpg as a trade off for a better running bike.
You don't owe anyone an explanation. Sounds like it was a simple misunderstanding, since this is about the only negatives i've read about them, i'd call it an isolated incident. For what it's worth, you can use any make or break switch as a MAP switch. Radio Shack has alot of differn't ones that will work.
