For one I never saw 40 psi and yes is it your obligation to help with setting up a boost controller. Not blaming gtm for my motor popping but your service is just plain CRAP and that's why people are backing out of your group buy. What would happen if something happened to you sam would mike step up and run gtm? I think not and everyone who invested in your company would be SCREWED. And the thng is you think its only me who feels this way. Look around sam but I have a feeling you already have and don't like what you see but hey if it makes you feel better going after me then go ahead. I regret going with your company and wish I would have waited and went with a better company that actually cares about their customers and can meet a deadline.. Lesson learned and a 12k mistake!!!!!
I take full responsibility for my actions regarding my motor but maybe one day gtm can man up and take responsibility for all of their screw-ups...

Also I ran into the guy your company screwed in Pensacola Florida that spent 40k on your company. There are a lot more than 2% that have popped their motors and you and mike know it but you also know that will hurt your sales if the real numbers got out. I am not getting in a pissing match with you but I will set the record straight.

The forum members "Nissan370" and "FireDan50" also had builds done by that company recently. You should contact those two as well.

Please do share the info you get about VSR, previously S&R. Seems legit if one is okay with the single turbo route.

Sorry bro but I disagree. Unless the boost control was included or purchased threw GTM they are not obligated.

Really spohn, your so wishy washy on everything. And to be honest I really don't know if that even was what caused it because I had zero issues since. My main concern now is to find a built block to get up and going. I have better things to do besides deal with gtm on their issues.

Why you always come at me man? Dude, I like you and have no beef. But I'm going to come straight with you on with my feelings. That's not wishy washy nor is that a GTM related issue.

I will call around again tomorrow to some of these other places and let everyone know what I find out on options for others who will need a built block soon...
