I've never bought from GTM before. I've never even heard of GTM until I bought my Z. But to see what you guys are doing by giving the Garrett ball bearing turbos as a no-cost upgrade as a reward for sticking it out in this group buy definitely gives me confidence I made the right choice to go with GTM. So I appreciate this upgrade and I don't mind waiting more for things fall into place in the best interest of all.

Sam@GTM, have a speedy recovery!
Same ^^ I never changed my decision and wasn't hesitant over the Date Schedule. Things happen for a reason, Patience Is Key. Just my two cents

Mike told me it was fine to pair up the internal wastegate setup with my F.I 2.5" Non- Resd T.P and CF CBE butI'm afraid of boost creep so idk if I should upgrade to 3" exhaust or go external with my exhaust setup????? Some Info would be appreciated, Thanks!

External are awesome but the 3" downpipe is not going to mate up to your exhaust. Will need some modification.

Yes mike mentioned that and just the thoight of cutting my exhaust and welding a 3" flange to mate is just Pure Suffering and Agony to my soul :/ but is it possible and what would go for external or just replace exhaust?

Welding a 3'' flange is nothing. Not sure I understand your last comment?

Weld a flange. Easy, simple, and not costly

Mega are you doing your install yourself? You need to let me know if your ever coming into central Texas for a show or something (San Antonio) so we can meet up.

Did Mike think boost creep would be an issue with that setup? I'm planning on running basically the same thing:

GT2860RS 0.84 A/R
Internal wastegates
GTM test pipes
FI 2.5" CBE (12" res)

Mine Non Resd straight through from T.P through CBE that's why I chose the exhaust for this turbo setup but Im still in that debate because NUNBERS is important and mating a 3" downpipe from EW to a 2.5" cbe wont that restrict flow/power? (Or whatever its called)

*also mike told me that wasn't gonna be an issue with the "18G" turbos and I'm assuminh neither with those but I rather want to avoid it if I can no?
