Still no refund. Getting pretty sick of this. I've called 5 times trying to get an update. 4 out of 5 times Sam wasn't around and no one else could help me. Finally got in touch with Sam and he said he would call me back with the status but never did :mad:

Trips thanks, at times I feel like the forum protects vendors more than the actual members but you've proven me wrong.

My apologies to you, and others waiting for a reply on status of money transactions. :ugh2:

I just noticed GTM has no actual vendor section to make threads to ask questions or to post a problem

And because of that Im going let this topic stay as there is nowhere else to post it on the forum.

if its going to stay, can we at least keep it civil guys so people that are still in the group buy don't have to read through a bunch of bs to find updates?

way to state the obvious... i know that, but there are posts from other people that are good to read sometimes as well. all I'm saying is we don't need 10 pages of constant b*******

Or hopefully Spohn gets back in the groove and makes witty comments to keep us entertained.

If anything, I bet your wife is happy though, no? :icon18:

On a serious note, I plan on shooting GTM a call on tuesday after my exams to see where we are at, and to discuss some thoughts I had on doing an E85 setup for the car. Maybe switch over to a tuner setup to find my own fueling stuff? Who knows.

Update: We finally got a response from our casting company today on the status of the cast parts that we have had on order with them. They are telling us that we can expect to have the parts within the next 30 days. The parts we have on order are our new, updated cast manifolds, new turbine outlets for the factory cats, and new O2 sensor housings for our modular 3” downpipes.

As for our mandrel bender, there have been numerous setbacks with the bender supplier. For starters, we were supposed to have the dies in hand before the end of this month as of their most recent schedule. That has been pushed back since the original wiper dies were not leaving a desirable finish on the bent pipes and had to be reworked. This of course was after our metal supplier sent the incorrect temper piping to the bending company to test the dies and ensure they work correctly. The bending company is estimating that we will have the dies in hand on November 8th. They expect that they can have the bender setup, up and running sometime between November 11th and the 15th.

Please be advised that this is information that is passed on to us on when we can expect things to happen. Given all the setbacks we have seen thus far, this schedule is preliminary and not set in stone. As such, this schedule is subject to change.

As we get information in that changes any of the projected dates, we will post up the information. Also, bear in mind that once the parts come in, we will need to process them all, do quality control and then start packaging up the kits to ship them out.

We have a system in place that will allow us to ship the kits very quickly and we are already working on putting together the components that we already have in stock in anticipation for the arrival of the final components. Without going into great detail, we have a system in place that will allow us to put a turbo kit together complete, in a box, ready to ship within 2 hours.

We will also be posting two new threads. One will be about the latest results from car that got our first iteration of the MHI kit. The car had 10,000 miles on the kit and we brought it back in to tear it down and inspect the system. We will be sharing what we discovered and give some more insight into this new system. The second thread will be about the GTX upgrade option.

Thank you guys, for your continued patience.

Why do i have a funny feeling that they will start shipping just before Christmas and everyone stateside will spend their Christmas break doing their installs and I will spend my Christmas break waiting for my kit to clear customs! :(

You guys have waited this long, now that they have the machine operational. Do you really want them to rush while they're bending all the pipes? Quality remember. Be patient the day will come.

Update: We are happy to report that we have been bending pipes the last couple days. So far, so good and it is getting easier and smoother by the day. We are waiting on an update from the casting company and as soon as we have one from them, we will post that up.
