I will be running it N/A, before I put the SC on it.

How many times has he told you "He'll be done soon"? You need to stop trusting Sam and get a lawyer. You will never get a motor from Sam. Period. If you're lucky you might get your money back. That's the best-case scenario. Get an attorney.

And why would you run a motor built for boost NA? Low compression motors aren't going to be impressive without forced induction.

Interesting build. I used to have a high RPM ITB Civic hatchback, so to see a lot of negativity here about N/A builds is puzzling. My little 2.0 4cyl saw gains switching to a 3" collector and exhaust, so when folks here yell that 2.5" is enough for 3.7l, i just scratch my head.

Thoughts on where your restrictions are now? 3" collectors and 3" all the way back? More compression?

Yeah no excuse to have had your motor for what a year? Not Acceptable. But the fact is you accept it and Sam gets away with it. GTM has a lot of potential as you can see by the work on OP's car but my gosh they can't run a business. A year long build isn't even needed to build a 1000+ GT-R. That was the only negative drag back from this thread is that OP has GTM products and work done on the car because I won't touch GTM. But I'm happy it worked for OP. Happy OP went N/A. Your the first to do this and had the balls to do so. Going boost isn't everything. Every car is boosted these days. Maybe I'll just do cams and heads and call it a day. That's if I get tired of saving for a GT-R.
