ATR Performance

[rob86gn]

Anyone know the inside scoop on ATR? Website is gone, phone number disconnected, are they done for good or under another name or what? Can't believe all that inventory and machinery is just sitting...I liked their parts!!!

Thanks for the info, what a shame. Hopefully someone will buy it and re-start it again or somthing...

All of their equipment was auctioned ..So I think they are done.
My crossflow muffler went south /blow open at the welds and they sent me a brand new one free and paid shipping( ihad to ship my old one to em) this was about 8 months before they went belly up. Wheew talk about timing.

It was cool be cause the new muffler made the system fit better than the original.

TOO bad they are gone !!!!
I kept all their old catalogs and all my reciepts over the years form parts I purchased from em.

atr had the nicest tt setup ive ever seen.
now they are gone and i have to look elsewhere.
i just contacted ESPPERFORMANCE to see pics of their setup, ive heard its nice but i need to see it before i buy it!

Yea I miss ATR. I used to love going thru their catalogs. I have an ATR 3" Single Shot exhaust that is gorgeous and fits perfectly. I had a friend polish the pipes and they almost shine like chrome.

Now that I know ATR is gone, I will cherish that exhaust a little more now.

 

[stagemonster]

someone bought all there tooling and designs and invintory

 

[rob86gn]

Keep us posted, if you know who they are, as to when the company that bought their stuff will be opening up for business...

 

[231V6]

from what i understand ATR's equipment and inventory was auctioned off publically to MULTIPLE people, so the chances are slim that thier parts will be seen again. although im still going to be looking forward to that day

I am sure that Phil must be freaking out over what happened to his ex business....I was told that at the time he was thinking of taking it back...

Nice to see ESP is still in business after so many years. What are ya'lls opinions of them?

Their website seemed to have alot of parts listed.

 

[J-B Racing]

What are ya'lls opinions of them?

I had a very bad experience with ESP years back. I will never buy from them again...

IMO
