It sounds like Joe and Dawn just want some free $hit and to pick a fight. Also, Joe needs to whip Dawn into shape and chain her back in the kitchen. I've never bought a single item from GTM, but this story wouldn't stop me from doing so in the future. Some people are just crazy, and Dawn appears to be one of them. Perhaps she should also consider spending less time haggling with businesses and go take some literacy courses. Her grammar blows.

As for shipping times, has anyone looked up exactly where Guam is on GoogleMaps? It's on the other side of the planet. It's obvious US Mail would take forever to get there. Moral of the story: businesses shouldn't ship anything of value to Guam and Guamanians shouldn't expect speedy deliveries. Why does Joe need a turbo-powered car on a 30 mile long by 4 mile wide island anyway?

Sounds like one of two things happened:
1. Someone at GTM (not Sam, obviously), tried to screw some people over (GTM, consumer, or both).
2. Consumer tried to (and accomplished) screwing over GTM into getting a new kit to replace a busted up one.

Just playing devil's advocate.

To the friend or wife whoever you are. We understand your plight and the situation. however, your actions here were completely uncalled for and unwarranted. Vindictive action due to emotions is very immature and irresponsible. Next time you have a problem with a company I hope you have a cooler head and atleast a little patience.

I tried to make the video as light hearted as possible and easy for anyone to understand.
Didn't want Free $hit. Just wanted Joe to get his Money back and never to spend a dime with GTM again. GTM didn't want that offered replacement parts and AFR gauge that Joe had previously spoke to Sam about.
Even though they said it would be taken care of. The piping wasn't even shipped till a few days ago.(This problem has been going on for quite some time) Joe will be leaving soon. The car will have to be shipped. Will the parts arrive on time? We shall see. If the original parts were properly wrapped, undamaged and shipped on time. The kit would already be on the car and shipping to somewhere else. That wasn't the case.If GTM had done what they are just now doing. Weeks ago the video wouldn't have been made and we wouldn't be reading this thread.

Dude...I really hope that when you posted this, it was out of humor...I won't read to deep into it, but this remark can be taken very offensively by locals here....

Shipping methods to Guam are ridiculous, and if you have experience of ordering parts from our end of the planet, you know better than to expect speedy deliveries. As stated earlier by Simota1, going USP or FedEx to Guam is double the price...for example when I ordered the Stillen G3's it would've costed me $400.00 just to ship FedEx...At that price I could've bought two sets....Now if this is what it costed you on the stateside, would you pay that?

Joe really sorry to hear what you had to go through...I can totally understand your frustrations...especially in regards to time since you're leaving in April....If GTM ships Parcel Post (Snail Mail), its gonna take about 4-6 weeks to get here...They can go Priorty, but because of the size of the boxes, its gonna cost a pretty penny....but then again the US Postal Service can down grade Priorty mail to Parcel Post based on Weight and Size...this is what happened when I ordered by clutch kit from ZSpeed. Unless GTM ships out all the boxes at one time, and you're not scheduled to leave until late April, it may not make it here on time before your next station...I wish you the best of luck.

don't worry about the comment man, he just doesn't know. Hopefully someone at USPS is motivated to get packages shipped ASAP

With just shipping prices alone I could have bought a SZ 6puck/flywheel combo... exhaust on its own was over $500 to ship
