Maximum valve lift on low load conditions with the vvel turned down is 2mm, combine that with open throttles and you get overboosted positive displament chargers pushing more air than the engine can use. By all means dont believe me and make a kit for it. I would love to be proven wrong and put a twinscrew on my car. Maybe you could fo some crazy bypass valve stuff to get around it.

Here is something different for all you to read.... It showed up today.... Not only did GTM send me a replacement tube for the one that was dented. They sent a set of tubes to replace both, as well as new silicon couplers. Maybe this is the start of them turning over a new leaf... One can hope.

Bobby is trying his best to come up with a solution if they send another part that doesn't fit. Sam could f*ck up the nicest dream, between him and my bad luck I'll be lucky to get my car at all. If this sh*t don't end soon I'm gonna have a stroke with all the other crap happening in my life. |

Wasn't your oil fittings mixed up and were used in the incorrect spot Infidel? I could've read your last response in yor tread incorrectly though.
I hope they are turning over a new leaf! They received my car Monday, two days early , and started working on it right away from what Pablo told me. I'm goin to call Monday and get an update from Sam personally. I hope they recover from the mess they have out themself in the 8 months or so. They were great at one point. That being said, a bunch of other companies are raising the bar very very fast, VSR, FI, BP just to name a few. Hope this platform continues to expand.

I am getting my stage 1 TT kit installed. I was originally supposed to be a DIY project over the winter, however they sent me a defective drill guide to tap into my cylinder head. It wasn't cast right or something so was missing around ~10mm of metal, because of that they are fixing my head for free. I figured they might as well just finish the installation of the kit and supporting mods as well as the tuning while it was down there.
I made it a habit of calling Sam everyday to get him to figure out how he was going to fix GTM's screw up. I have no problem at all with calling them everyday and being that little pest who will keep them on track. When you're holding onto somebody's $50,000 investment, you have every right to ask for as many updates as you wish.
