I was there when it happened and I spoke with SAM several times over the phone.

I hope this thread gets locked by admin. Not to cover it up or anything but to prevent the situation from going all over the place as it is starting to. So I say lock it and if Joe or sam have a update to pm admin and them unlock it for that and then lock it back up after the update

This just shows that you dont know what is right and what is wrong in terms of the turbo kit. I posted a picture of a package list; the part numbers are for employees to pick out the correct part. If there was a sticker like that on every single pipe, then the kit would look HIDEOUS. The installer would have to spend extra hours remove the stickers. If GTM included "white serial part like that", you would've made a thread complaining about how ugly it looks.

When I said it would have been nice to receive a part like that i meant in the condition it was in. Not the searial number part. Plus had it been a "sticker" I would think it would just come right off. With the engraved number underneath.
If you think my points and complaints are not valid more power to you. This is not your money being spent. This is not your product you've been waiting to received since December and it's now second week of march and product just barely got sent. It was people who were saying bad things about Joe as if he made it up this isn't just one thing it's a pile of things. I want them to give him and everyone after him excellent service every time. So they know there are certain things you don't say to someone especially if you're in the wrong.
Ownership of problem, Genuine apology prompt and effective handling of the problem.

I'm done repeating. you have been informed.

I'd like to ask why the kit wasnt shipped UPS or FedEx? Instead broken down and shipped By other means.

Sam stated why he didn't send it FedEx or UPS and went out of company policy to send this one. I am guessing it was something to do with Joe being in the armed forces.

Parts got thrown in a box that were bad and the people that do the shipping thought it to be new and associated with the parts he needs. Could have been prevented, but hey **** happens. The story was stated from sam and from Joe's wife. Sam is sending the new parts you stressed your concern but yet continue to rant like a little child. I don't think he would ship this purposely because any half brain moron knows that this is going to raise a alarm and now he has to deal with the situation yet again and get all new **** shipped. Why would someone intentionally do this? come on people. If your using this for a reason not to buy a GTM FI kit I laugh at you because there are more success then failures with this kit on are forum. I actually think this is the first and only issue present.
that could have happened...not a bad thought.

Then came up with excuses every time Joe called as to the reason why products hadn't been shipped yet. Not manning up and Calling Joe the moment he knew there was a problem. Even though he said things would be done. This is were the frustration is coming from. That is the other reason why the video was made. I believe it states that in the beginning of the video.

GTM's actions spoke much louder than there words.
in other words:

When GTM would give me a timeline/day that the new items would be shipped etc and it wouldn't happen...He would not inform me unless I contacted him. He did email me 1 time about something not being able to happen. This also happend with the original shipments. BEFORE ANYONE SAYS ANYTHING...I understand its a business and GTM deals with more people them just me. I only wanted to try and make her post clear because I didn't fully understand.

I think that is what she is saying...

Everyone needs to calm down too, you guys are everywhere and the SAME EXACT THINGS are being said over and over and over.......get it.

posters who go back n' forth (Joes right, GTM is right) make up your mind and stick with it plz. We are both right in many aspects. Wording has alot to do with peoples perseption on what is said and can also create assumptions if not properly said/typed.

The MAJOR ISSUE now is installing in time for the car to ship. Like said before, if this didn't happen then I would already have it installed and ordering more parts so I can play even harder there would be no vehicle shipment issues.

Im sure Sam is going to still help me out (I dont want to find post), I have no fear in that. Like in the Navy, being put in such a high position means YOUR name is the one people will see. The guys below you never get mentioned and have less responsibility. Just so happens someone messed up somewhere and "Sam" is the name that is out there and is why I would have rather kept this to "GTM" because it's not just him who is involved.

Another problem is, like I said, This isn't the 1st things I have shipped here. Had the same setup on the last car and so far this is the only shipping issue with this car. All the care packages I have recieved in the past 3 years have also been unscathed.

@bullitt: I could tell you were becoming very short and upset, trying to use insults like "immature"... "bad grammer" and "...kids" I'm 22 and she is 31 (refer to Kieri avatar . Insults are not needed and I do believe you may be the only one using them on the regular. I apologize for anything said, on anyones behalf, that made you upset.

@GTM: Thank you for being proffessional about the situation and for posting your side of what happened.

Was told by SAM
Due to the size of the box, USPS allowed us to ship it only one way, there was no options .
This kind of set me on fire.

WHAO!!!! that is alot of opinions

I'll post later but for now I'm at work:

shipping to guam takes 2 wks priority mail from Indiana (place of residence)

GTM has sent new items (slow shipping as mentioned before)

OP is not Joe...its this guy

Guam has a 1/4 mile track and autoX...but I C what you mean, no highways is an epic fail

Real quick, the video was a way to SHOW that what was said in the dragon thread by chii370 wasnt a lie. It was a way to show our side and numbers. Of course GTM is going to post here, just look at the title. Everyones story has 2 sides...stories usually involve more then 1 person.

I had no intention of video getting onto the forum and is why It was never posted by the wife or I. I also wanted to keep the dragon thread clean and not to create a mess.
