Having an issue where the casting company adds to much material and the time to goto market is delayed due to having to hone/extrude the pipe is WAY less of an issue than the pinging/cold/hotstart/drivability problems the Stillen kit has/had...I would take a delay of part over tuning disasters any day of the week.

Talking to a company's chief promoter is the easiest way to become biased. Looking at all of the data is the way to make the most accurate and unbiased assessment of the situation. This is what Chris is trying to do. Stating that he is misinformed is insulting.
If you want to call things like difficult hot starts a "tuning disaster", then then GTM has a tuning disaster as well. The tuning problems that I initially had with my car were not issues that could lead to engine damage or failure. Those issues were fixed long ago. My car has been running perfectly since September. GTM has had a problem getting their kit to market. Once they start getting more cars on the road like Stillen has, other problems - like GTM's hot start issue - are going to show up... Just like they did with Stillen. Then GTM will go back and fix those issues, just like Stillen did. GTM's mass deployment of the kit and the surfacing of problems still has not happened. They have two cars on the road (shumby and dreamer)? Stillen went through that process in June. Implying that GTM is "ahead" of Stillen is simply not accurate.
