GTM Performance Engineering & Forged Performance

Now I'm confused. Guess I'll reserve judgment until the day I deal with him personally.

Don't argue with me, there's a thread on another forum that details the experience a little and I also heard it straight from the shop. I don't want to get involved in this drama, but I don't know that its fair to judge Forged so harshly when I know for a fact that GTM products aren't exactly perfect either.

That being said the issues were not extreme and all taken care of, luckily the tech we had doing it was very patient and did a great install without complete instructions.

This was done back in September and the car is still running strong without any issues.

Is Sam perfect? no, but does he try to fix issues when they arise? yes, I can't complain with the end product and we would have no issue doing another install of a GTM Kit.

LOL don't be, yes it was a trying experience but not anything that I would would say is "shady" that is a strong word to use and I don't think it merits to be used with our experience with GTM then and now. As I said the issues were all addressed and the best part is that the car is doing well
