So, the engine stops abruptly because you ran out of fuel? (That's what you posted on the YouTube comments section.)

Pictures speak for them selves. I really hope that built block (that I can't find the post now) they show built in the middle of a dirty shop is not in your car also.

W - O - W is all I can say! From what Ive heard in the community Forged has a pretty good reputation and Sharif is a respected tuner. However, this TT install is clearly the biggest hack job POS half-*** attempt ever. This has lawsuit written all over it.

And I must give Juan props for presenting a very professional, WELL documented public complaint instead taking the low road with profanity, threats, and zero proof, pictures, etc. Those pictures tell the whole story. If the same care went into dyno tuning this G that went into the install then its a safe assumption that negligance blew this VHR.

And the way I read it is that GTM saved the day...they fixed what Forged f'ed up. Props to them.

Unbelievable. The twin turbo install I did myself on my gto with ZERO experience looked MUCH better than this. Ridiculous.

WOW.. glad SAM chimed in here. This is the reason I am driving from Edmonton alberta canada to Cali to get SAM to install my SC. You got to really really trust your shop to let them do this kind of work. I don't trust my local shops so I am going on my road trip. the only other option is to do it myself. If you do the work yourself you can only blame yourself.

Damn...

Damn.
