That's from JTran, the guys that built O&G's car. Straight up the best shop I've ever seen. I'm taking my WS6 to them here in a year or two when

When I ordered my SC kit it took about 8 months to get... And came with damaged charge piping... Still waiting on a replacement pipe, been almost a year now... I think you'd almost be better cutting your losses and jumping over to BP or FI.

Did you order the GTM SC kit via a group buy or just a regular order ?

You have to call EVERY DAY !!! Get on Sam's azz every chance you get. Talk to Pablo and see if that gets you anywhere. You can't just 'wish' it into your possession.

Yeah I've been calling every day, like I'm not one to be annoying but it's seriously the only way to get a response. We'll see where it gets me though, and if anything's damaged or used at all I'll be SO PISSED!

Dudes been building turbo kits on VQ's for years, he just doesn't blast his shop all over the forums like others because he doesn't need to. His business has taken off and grows every year because the way he treats his customers.

2 years ago he was tuning VVEL: VVEL control unlocked

built more VQ37VHR's than any other company I know and countless VQ's in general: JTran Motorsports basic shortblock details

How about pushing a stillen kit to the limits: Vq35hr 20psi stillen blower

Sasha and JTran go way back, here is one of the first low mount kits ever on a VQ....5 or 6 years ago....custom setups are JTrans middle name!







This setup ran 10.'s w/ power in the mid 600's till he blew the motor failing to upgrade fuel pumps :/

Yea, I do most the repping (fan boy) crap on here for them, but hey, I've known him for over 8 years and he is the best UpRev tuner on this side of the US! Not to mention he has helped me out numerous times over my 8 years of owning VQ's!

Back on topic, sorry for the thread jack!

I hate to continue the thread jack but I can't help it. I've had a business relationship with JTran for over three years. I really hate to call it a business relationship because they treat me like family. He has given me free wisdom and knowledge on many occassions. He tuned me NA and he will be getting the G with my BP kit. He is an enthusiast. He loves builds whether its his work or yours he's always willing to help.

He is definitely not the type of guy to add or pull timing to push his product. If they say that's how the kits perform, than that's how they perform.

Sorry...back to the regularly scheduled program

Sorry, just saying trq can be made with timing I'm not saying he sucks or is good. I have no idea.

Hey bud. We're probably a little sensitive on the subject since JTran has treated us so well, which is nice considering some vendors (to be left unnamed) continue to **** on their customers.

*hands up* still in it - found a pro uprev tuner not too far from my place about half hour away today as well, so there's an upside!
