I saw your car up there the other day and the fuel system was done and looks awsome they had the engine bay all repainted bc it was red and the car was white and they did a real nice job it looks factory. theres alot of **** to take out to so you can do a quality paint job in an engine bay,and were fixing some of the cobbled up wireing in there. saw the new motor there for the car. trust me these guys will do a great job and good jobs take time. they really did me up and it took time and mine was only a single. but thats how it works alot of planning and figureing out wher to get all that tubing that doesnt belong in there to fit somewhere. there is alot of steps to a project like this trust me I made alot of trips up there to see my car in various stages and there is alot of work involved.

Also, if you don't mind sharing, how much hp have you gotten out of your setup so far? If you car is the one in the video then I have heard it was suffering tranny problems at the time. Just wondering how it's working out for you.
On a side note. GMR has never given me a reason to doubt them in any way. They are nice guys and seem to be very educated on what they do. Since I can't drop by each week and see how things are coming along and they don't tell me much about what's going on I'm just getting a little antsy about getting the car back....you know...

Adam believe me when I say your car is number 1 priority, we want our kit complete as fast as you want it done. As Jason said it takes time and there were alot of things in the car that was done in the swap that we wanted to clean up. We would hate to have our name that anyone would think of as a subpar job. As far as updates, between other customers cars, internet orders and providing tech help to other customers we honesly have not had a chance to update you or the website as much as we would like, but progress is coming along on the car, we are even having to push customers back on our roster to complete yours. Which we are very lucky to have such loyal customers who totally understand and are as pumped about the kit as you and we are, lol I plan for quite a showing when we go to tune the car.
I will do what I can to get you some pictures ASAP. Please just bear with us and know that we are pulling late nights losing time with our families to help accomidate your schedule. I am not meaning that in a smart way either. We gave yo a date we planned to have the car done by and we have every intention to meet that finish date and will do everything in out power to do so.
Trust me it will be worth the wait, and I promise under the hood will be as worthy as a show car as the rest of it!!!!!

it made 406 rwhp and 475 rwtq and we saw alittle more but it kept blowing through the tranny and converter. I also need valve springs as the boost is holding the open at high rpms. the car was completely stock and i need to get a stronger tranny for it before we put any more tune in it or the trans will be all over the shop. It is running awsome and works great and I coulnt ask for any more from the car especially with no supporting mods yet.

Leo, sounds great man. Thanks for the update. Make sure you get that stuff on video when you do the tune since I won't be there to see it. Keep up the good work and I appreciate your dedication and professionalism in this operation.

Thats cool that there is finally a company that is open to opinions from us! I dont think I cant afford a TT system, so I wont comment on that, but Everyone should take advantage of this opportunity to voice what you would like to see in a massed produced TT kit! GMR, I wish you luck on the kit/sales!
