Nice pickup. (pun intended) I was in the market a few years ago and never pulled the trigger. Now detail the engine bay and show that sucker off.

Yeah....? I would also like to know...? The most hated shop in DFW..? That is pretty harsh? Chris @ TSM built my C5Z.... as well as my former Fbods.. they also did a great job on my Lightning... Do you have "personal" experience? OR just Hatin' in general.?

Thanks for the props on the Truck... It's fun!

Brother, I am very interested if you still have it when I get my annual bonus.. Did you own a Lightning @ one time? What else has to be done ( other than alignment) when this kit is installed?

No not hating at all. I know about 2 lawsuits pending on them right now. There's about 15 threads of unhappy customers in the coyote world. They lied about a truck they didn't do (my truck that I sold) claiming they did everything until I reached out with pictures and me telling them that they did not do the work. My buddy had them price out a job via email once done they wanted 3 times the amount and wouldn't stand by what they quoted him on doing lighter brakes on a 5th gen. Same night they kept talking **** at the track about it and I told them don't worry we won't ever go there again. There is lots of hate south of Lewisville for sure. I just get upset when its close friends of mine having to give up on projects and the whole car sport due to a very poor job. Again it's my opinion about TS.

I respect your opinion.. As we all have them. For me, i cannot see myself taking any of my cars to anyone else. With regards to lawsuits, anyone can sue anyone for just about anything.. It's all about the "FACTS"... Not inference, and opinion or what somebody "thought" ya know.?

Kids (18-20 y/o) w parents w BIG money building 600+ HP new 5.0's... just to have little johnny go out and beat the **** out of it, break it and cry "it wasn't built right", i never drove it over 70mph is laughable.... Wouldn't you say.... That is just an example....

Regarding the price out via email.... Was that with tim? Or Clint? I myself go directly to Clint to quote any work done to my vehicles and he has always done me right. Sean has been tuning my cars since his days back @ LG and i tend to stay w folks i trust.

To be clear... I am not downplaying your experience.. Only sharing mine..

Yes, I see what your saying. PMP in forney sure loves all the ex TS customers though.....
Sean is good with LS no dening that. Clint is who I have notice doesn't care for customer service. They used to sponsor on camaro5 so prices were givin through PMs at the end of the day once the work was done he didn't stand by his 1st price. My thing with them was the fact they claimed they built as in interior paint all the cosmitics on a custom truck that "I" had done on my own but claimed they did. It got a lot of attention on a dyno day they had back in 2013. I emailed them all the before and after pics asking them at what point did they do this? No email was sent just questions on the setup.

No, I have never owned one, the kit is at my work. They ordered it for a client a few years ago and its just been sitting. It probably will still be here just let me know. Just an alignment is needed
