Well, they are located in South Korea and are a new company. Alot of the company is still being put together and the bugs working out. If you read at their site, they are...

QUOTE
kSpec will slow down on getting orders for about 2 months.
It will be fully up by the end of February.
Korean staff will have to attend a camp for 2 months.
The site will still be open and questions can be answered.
Orders that are made before Christmas are in the works.
They are being delayed because of Christmas season.
We will do our best to fulfill customers' needs.
Thank you.
Now, myself and my wife may work for them for a bit to help out during this time, so there may not be too big of a interruption in their business. David and Matt, the owners, are both well knowledged in the Hyundai aftermarket and have been a big help to me. Just give them some time to work things up.

Let me know if I can help.

We emailed about the headers.

On the TB's, I only see one that goes above 60MM, and that's the "Throttle Body C"

Throttle Body C

Did you pay air shipping charge of $100?

I've just send out bunch of catalog to Motor Magazine in Korea, and EMS Express Mail Service charge me $70. FEDEX quote me $140, so...

No sarcastic remark intended.
