Default GTM TT kit?

Hey guys,

Im ready to make the jump and go FI. Ive been looking at the GTM kit and have read good things about the kit it self, but bad things with their customer service and business ethics. Have they gotten any better since that group buy a few years back? Is it worth pursuing or should I look into another kit? Thanks!

It is Gamma now, they bought the company from GTM so those concerns are issues of yesteryear. Jayhova can speak to their service and product, I'm sure he will pipe in here.

If you are looking at only twin turbo kits I woukd look at AAM or fast intentions kit over gammas kit ...that just my opinion even though I'm using a GTM supercharger kit. I think you would have more support with fast intentions/AAM over gamma

If is twins, the only choice should be fast intentions and I say that coming from an Aam kit. My dealings between the two has no comparison because fast intentions just can't be beat when it comes to quality and customer service.

This. There are only two turbo kits from reputable vendors for this car. Fast Intentions or Boosted Performance. It just comes down to whether you want one turbo or two.

There have been some great builds with their kits, but after their intake manifold debacle I would have serious issues giving them that kind of money when there is an alternative.

Have an AAM kit installed for almost 25k miles now with no engine related issues I am confident in this product. Haven't really had to reach out too much to the company so I don't really have too much experience with their customer service. Anytime I've contacted them they've gotten back to me relatively quick.

You are in Canada so I would agree with with Chuck, Boosted Performance or Fast Intentions. A major plus is Sebastian from SpecialtyZ does the tuning for Fast Intentions and can tune you remotely and he makes at least one trip a year to Canada to do dyno tuning.

You've read good things about GTM??? Where??

For twins, Fast Intentions all day

For a single, boosted performance.

Hey now, the kits they made before Sam got sick were solid. The problems began after they had to remove his brain.

I ordered their oilpan. Came with no instructions and missing parts. The new owner is in Dubai and his son runs Gamma. The son knows zero about anything. Always has to ask his dad for info and communication is horrible. I could only imagine what it would be like if I bought and FI kit from them. I eventually gave up. FastIntentions or Boosted Performance.

Yeah, the issue with Gamma is that they bought all the IP and manufacturing, but they either didn't keep any of the tech people or they had already left before the sale since Sam kept bouncing their paychecks.

I believe this is a misconception that seems to be accepted as common knowledge here. They don't have Mike@GTM anymore who was a primary designer of this kit, but they do have knowledgeable people there. The guy they set me up with for support, Jason, knew the kit forwards and backwards.

Was Jason there during the GTM days? From what I remember of the final days of GTM, everybody that knew anything left since they hadn't been paid in months. It wasn't that Gamma chose not to keep everybody, most of them left earlier.
