Ok, so I'v had a lil bit to drink and wanna make sure I read this correct. So if I wanna get my FI and built motor built by you guys you will send a truck to come pick up my car in Missouri free of charge? I swear if I just read that right than the lil LSX conversion can go out the window since I can actually have access to a damn shop. LOL

i really hope they don't grow in size. That is what happens to alot of good shops. They grow due to success, but eventually become so large that the quality of work starts to diminish. The larger the shop makes for more vairables to control.

how about other variables in the pricing? price of parts, price of labor, any changes there vs what you have quoted other people during their fi + engine builds?. Must they buy all the parts from you gusy to make this work?(like if someone already bought a TT kit for exmaple?)

We have all seen the horror stories on the boards, and accounts of customers spending 2-3 times what they should have, simply fixing a job that wasn't done right the first time, or the second time. GTM and FP's shops are filled with cars like this, and we want it to stop. We want to eliminate as much stress, and risk, from this process.
To this end, GTM and FP are pleased to announce free transport of your vehicle, to our respective shops, for all built engine/forced induction projects; one on the east coast, and one on the west coast! When your project is complete, we will arrange a complimentary flight for you to pick up your car. Additional arrangements can be made, if you would like your car transported back to your home. Past experience has shown, that most customers prefer to try out their car for a couple days, and then drive home. This allows us to familiarize the customer with the new vehicle features, and answer any questions or concerns, the customer may have.
Now, distance is no longer an issue. When you are ready, just call us, and you car will be picked up from your home, and delivered safely to FP or GTM.
We are looking forward to working with you all.

Can't go wrong with either of the companies, top notch service right there, and suits the needs of many who are deprived of nearby resources.

Fantastic idea! This is an incredible service to everyone that is thinking about going FI. I've already decided where I was going to take my car it get it built. So with this service, you’ll be saving me time, money, and mileage on the car.
Keep up the great work!

Agreed...Jeremy from Performance Factory offered to come pick up my car in his car hauler (3hr drive one way) to do some work on my Z a week ago.Looks like Jeremy is all about customer service as well.

i've also had the pleasure of meeting sam when he was here tuning GMan's G35... he runs the same tight ship... neither of these guys would put their names on the line by making an announcement that didn't come to fruition...
so rest easy fellas... sure, it may seem too good to be true, but that's only because it's unbroken ground in this industry... we all thought the Popeil Pocket Fisherman could never happen..but, it did! *ahaha*

The reason I have never saved for a built motor and turbos is because I dont feel that there is a quilified shop around me, and the cost to ship and fly out to you was just a little more than I wated to spend. Anyways, already started saving and it wont be long before I send my car.
