Just be careful man. Please. Been over a $1k in labor due to removal and installations of the same part.. I'm in the military...definitely not made of money. That's $1k lost in the ether for something that should have been good from the start.

Crossing my fingers for no problems. I appreciate the heads up. Definitely would suck and I hate supporting companies with questionable customer support.

Got a bunch of work done over the past weekend.

Stage 3 Southbend clutch and 19lb flywheel installed.

Intercooler, Supercharger Cooler, and Oil Cooler Installed.

Cranked her for the first time.

The 30minutes previous to this were spent panicking because the car wouldn't stay cranked. It wasn't until I strapped on the HFCs that the car fired up. Not entirely sure why that worked, but I am not looking a gift horse in the mouth.

and the money shot...

weaponx · 05-04-2016, 09:51 AM

Love the new look. Boooooooooost

Finally, the "tragic" part of the story.

Everyone knows about the problems GTM had. I got my supercharger kit BNIB from a forum member here. Going in to it I knew I would have no support from the vendor. However, when the switch to Gamma occurred last year I reached out to them (Sam was still around), and he said he wouldn't have any problem sending me the box tune file for my car. Unfortunately I wasn't in the country and couldn't get to my ECU to get the info needed for him to send me the file. No worries, Gamma was a "new" company and surely they wouldn't mind sending a file to an old GTM customer. Fast forward to the past few weeks. I emailed, called, facebooked, instagrammed and couldn't get a hold of the #@!^%$@$%^ I mean literally a dozen attempts or more to get a hold of them. Seems like the same ol' GTM to me (maybe worse). Anyway, I am only a little heart broken as I knew this was a probable situation when I bought the kit.

Good news, my brother and I are going to AAM next week to get EcuTek'ed and Tuned (including launch and traction control). Excited is not sufficient to describe how I feel. Can hardly wait! Hope to be posting up dyno charts soon.

All of this just under the wire to make it to ZdayZ. May is going to be a good month.

yea, i agree. we decided on AAM Competition up in Maryland, they are EcuTek Master tuners. my intention was always to wind up on EcuTek, but I was hoping to delay the cost til later this year. alls well that ends well though. stoked about going EcuTek

sneak peak on some of the exterior add-ons. i decided to stay pretty mild with just some CF accents. i love all the body kits and options for the Z but I wanted to stay close to the original look. Since, that's what I fell in love with when I bought the car.
