GTM Performance Engineering: MHI Twin Turbo Official Release

In all due respect, what did you expect?

You have dyno numbers, with no proof of such a vehicle ever running. There are no miles on this kit, nothing. Nothing running, nothing being tested. I was scared off this kit, because I did NOT want to be a test mule when paying for a finished kit. I don't pay for promises, it shouldn't work that way.

F.I. did not make their kit available UNTIL they had an operating prototype, this prototype is running flawlessly, has been and now has mileage behind it.

You guys keep ******* around with phone calls and "private" information, yet there's nothing out there.

I am patiently waiting on my FI kit because a)worth it and b)it exists! I get updates that are available to ALL buyers and not used to push their product.

Best of luck to you guys tho, I hope it all works out.

You act as if FI is rocket science. GTM has been pushing the envelope for many years. No testing needs to be done. That's not the issue. Your argument is very invalid. Your not involved so get the hell out. But I'm sure you'll come back some other off the wall passage that you think will justify your actions. People don't know how to keep there mouth shut and have to get that last word in. I'm sure you'll think its funny. I assure you it will be lame and everyone will be laughing at you. Now go justify spending 10K+ on a FI kit that will make the same numbers as this kit on a stock block. Lol.

Um they've had a prototype for quite some time. In fact, they let me take it for a test drive months ago.

SPOHN, I feel for you. I've been in your boat a time or two myself. It doesn't feel good. You're the only one that can make that decision. And you're going to be second guessing yourself after you make it.

I've never said anything much in this thread. I want to be boosted too. But I'm not going to put big money into a group buy until I can see the finished product. I can go either way, this kit or FI. I got the money. But neither company has put a kit in anyone's hands yet. The general public. So, I'm holding back.

Yeah this had me confused as well.

Check out my thread on myg37.com

Wattles is the guy who has had the 16G kit on his car for months now! Or are you guys saying that there is no 370z with the kit installed? G37 or 370z = practically the same platform.

The demo car I drove was a 370.
