This is blowing up way out of hand.
Not like we need more opinions flying around and whatnot - but honestly, in the grand scheme of things, I think this could simply be resolved if GTM chimes in, and gives us a two things
- Make sure refunds are issued properly and quickly, and sort those out first. That would help customer relations massively. If refunds go out, people will be more comfortable with leaving their money in GTM's hands, and other people who want to back out will have the choice to do so, and promptly.

Give us an update on where they truly are with things. Honestly, if they were to tell us that the cast parts are not coming for another month or two, I personally would have no qualms about it. I understand that others would like their kits now, and it leaves them with the decision to back out or stay in it. For me, there is not currently another option of which I feel desirable with my budget. I am in no rush to have my car done - but I want to know when I can expect my kit, in a honest, no-bs answer.
Fast Intentions is obviously my other choice for a twin turbo kit. But it's also outside of my budget. I honestly still have faith in GTM - if they pull this off, they will have many happy owners of a kick-*** turbo kit, and lots of turbo Z's on the road. I honestly feel like this could be a pivotal point for our platform. Lots of new forced induction cars on the road, pushing limits and exploring new things.
