No, not at all.

What they where doing is taking a 50% deposit upon order then the balance several months later (without permission and months before delivery).

I ordered mine December 2012. Was told April delivery, then May and then June. The balance of payment was taken in May. It was delivered in July 2013.
It took 6 1/2 months from order to delivery.

Reading the US forums it looks like delivery had slowed down even more but they where still taking full payment. I wouldn't like the chance of anyone who had an order seeing there money.

They have been slow at delivering for years.  When I researched them 3 years ago, there was more bad feedback than good due to taking the money, but dragging their feet on supplying the goods. I happily went with a different company and had no issues with my TKO conversion kit (although I haven't fitted it yet). I'd guess there will be some interesting threads on a few of the US vette forums right about now.

having done a tremec magnum into a C3
I don't under stand  the need to get these conversions
for those who are going to instal it them selves
as it is quite easy to make the stand box fit with only minor  tunnel work and it all looks stock when finished
Bfit
just a bit of subject but those interested in converting look ate the alternatives first
