here another

WoW, they couldnt even get your car right the first time
https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....&highlight=grd

Ide find more....but i got zero2prove...lol

Tell Tuan whats up with the APS injector Kenny loaned Jason for the kit he sold him??? WoW never heard from the guy after that...its funny GRD dont pick up when people are mad....

So chris car ran fine for 3 weeks...then ...he went to GRD...right....3 blocks later "boom". Tuan being Mr. tuner shouldnt have touched that car or DYNO'd a car that he though was ****ed up.....Dont they check the cars before the put them on the dyno anymore??? So if it blows the customer cant blame them

Keep looking my friend.

They got my car right the first time. There is a lot more to my story than one thread. I had a bad turbo, simple as that, not their fault. Replaced the turbo, no issue. Hard to troubleshoot sometimes when one person is saying it is one thing and another is saying it is another.

The TN issue, well IMO, that's TN for you. If I were them, I would have said to DB, "sorry, I would rather not install that kit"

And then there is Chris' car: his car did NOT run fine for 3 weeks before he went. Chris' whole sutiation was FUBR (Bent fuel line, coolant leak, nuts/bolts in the IC piping, etc etc.) Even his rebuild was messed up. SGP doesn't properly crate his motor, lost his ATS clutch, sends his turbo housings off to jet hot to be coated right before the huricane and held up for WEEKS, and etc etc etc) For you to even post in regards it shows you know very little about it.

Like I said, you think I am BS'n everybody, get on the phone, call GRD and ask them. I probably talk to them 2-3 times a week and they have answered the phone everysingle time.

The car is driven to the shop a majority of the time. Would you like me to call them in the morning and find out exactly how many miles are on the car so you can make the determination if it is a daily driver?

Aren't you selling your Z???

See there are GRD and APS related threads around the internet, but for some reason, they get shut down, or everyone is quiet. Its funny every car that GRD tunes either smokes or has to get the turbos seals rebuilt...is it the kit? or the tuner. Ill be honest, i really dont care if i hurt feelings, but the VQ is not mastered yet, and all the SGP block dont last that long..IMO, though they are a great shop.

Tuan came to Texas to tune a unichip car, i think 3 people went...wow i think they paid a grip load of cash for a 15HP gain.....
