yeah i think it's around 439 on stock cats! OMG it pulls like I would have expected......i now truly LOVE the JWT kit.....just need to get used to the ATS clutch again after driving a stock A4 for 3 weeks....After everything I have gone thru with my install having to be done twice...I feel I have mislead people with my previous ranting and raving....Frank's work was meticulous and even complemented by the folks over at Performance who did my recent overhaul. I feel bad that all of this recent shop bashing will impact his personal finances for that he is truly a wonderful mechanic....I would damn-near fly him to NY to do the work on my car....Yes I am pissed that I had to go thru all this B/S to get my car fixed.....but I can still say Frank over @ AAM did do a great job and none of these problems were installation "errors". I would still recommend people use him for installs to this day.

I will second that. Frank does really good work. He has always been there for me when I have had questions and gone out of his way to do the best job possible. I trust him completely and can ony wish him the best.

LOL......I had my install done @ AAM and made the stalling known to them time and time again.....SERIOUSLY they knew for months and did nothing....a mistake was made but it was because frank installed the fix from JWT's web site but that doesn't work with the TT kit. PM made my car run 100% so I don't see how it is their fault at all. They have a sick track record with JWT kits and I trust them 100% too. After making AAM aware of my problems for months I gave up and gave another shop the job. I am still confused as to why Jim Wolf himself had to replace my SS box because my previous one was touched by someone that screwed things up quite a bit. All I said is I have nothing against Frank.....but this problem should have been addressed months ago when it became overt.

I'm confused. Was Frank the one who screwed up the wiring on your SS box, improperly torqued the turbo manifold, and kinked the vac lines, or was it someone else? Fill me in; I guess I don't know the whole story.

The SS box was installed perfectly but was tuned by someone else and that is what got eff'd up.....the manifold that was loose was the adaptor from the turbo to the CAT and my exhaust has been off and on so many times that I cannot directly blame anyone.....Frank did a good job installing.....the ball was dropped when I was complaining about the issues with my car and noone cared to do a damn thing to fix it!

I am glad to see that you're finally enjoying your Z, instead of having it sitting in the shop.

It sounds like a totally botched up job, whoever did the first install. What a mess.

Where are you hanging out these days.
