Also, they are not selling the MHI turbo kits... they are selling the V3 kits based on the Garrett Turbocharger platform...
For those thinking Sam just walked with the GB money you would be dead wrong. He ran into production issues... The manifolds to fit the MHI turbos and the turbos themselves had issues. He went through over a dozen investment casts for the turbo manifolds alone... which is what was taking so long... I saw them all lined up on the floor and held them in my hands... The money from those sales went to the kits the problem was he did the GB too early and hadnt finished the development of the kit. I was saying this back in the day when issues started arising. This was a bad business decision and many of us got burned... He attempted to pay back people and I know he worked out deals with several people but I dont know if everyone got taken care of. Now I know some people may be able to upgrade to the V3 kit with Gamma in order to offset their loss. In that they are being very generous... they are not bound legally or morally to any former customers of GTM.
