Glad that DezilZ got his car back and it runs right.

due, "have seen and heard" doesn't mean sh*t if you have not experienced it.
I had a F**k-up tuner and Sam and The GTM crew fixed my problem. Yes, Sam is avery good tuner.

Yeah and as others stated on that thread, he is pairing a single exhaust to a TT set-up.

He wanted to make 400/400 but he made 380 / 370 or something like that. It would've easily been fixed with a more appropriate exhaust.

For him to blame GTM is just absurd. That 'mistake' was all on him.

There may be more to the story but I'll label this guy a noob.

Oh ok. As suspected, there is more to the story not related to the power the car generated.

Looking forward to your responce and I don't think you're a noob now since it has nothing to do with the power.

This should be an interesting read.

Well, I finally got to take my car down to GTM last Wednesday, and Sam really took good care of my car. Even though they took a while to tune it, everything was done meticulously and the end result is simply perfection - the car runs like stock, feels like stock, and the power delivery is very, very SMOOTH . . . . . something I am NOT used to feeling considering I ran the Unichip for about a year.

Sam also took the time to write me 2 maps, even though I'm running stock block. I must say the 7psi Map feels faster than my car did before Sam did his magic.

Overall they are great, I would recommend anyone in California to go to GTM because their customer service and quality are top notch. I'll wait for Sam to chime in or make a thread if he so chooses.

Thanks GTM, car feels f@cking amazing.

GTM FTMFW!!!


Can we see a dyno of this f@cking amazing ...god like ...tune ?
You started with 370whp...what is it now...like 600whp ??????

This should be a fun thread !!!!!!!!

No matter what business you are in it's impossible to satisfy 100% of the people 100% of the time. I'm interested to see what Kevin8086 has to say. All I can say is that I have dealt with Sam and GTM on multiple occasions now and I don't have a single issue with Sam or any of the other fellas at GTM. They are beyond professional and will go out of their way to make you happy and make sure your setup is done right. The only "complaints" that I have ever heard about GTM is that they are "too pricey." And all I will say to that is, you get what you pay for. Every penny that I have spent there was worth it and I will be going back to GTM when I am ready for my next round of mods.

I am sure Sam is a great tuner, but I laugh at the thought of him having some magic "stock feeling" tune that the other tuners in the country are without.

Oh.. and congrats on getting the car properly tuned!
Basically what you are saying is that when you changed from the Uni-chip to the FCon you did not feel any difference? I would have to disagree with you on this since the Uni-chip is a piggy back system that uses MAFS (Mass Air Flow Sensor) offset for fuel control and CAS (Crankshaft Angle Sensor) offset for timing control.

The FCon, as you know, has its own injector and coil drivers, which is why it will improve the driveability and boost transition feel, which makes the car much smoother. As a matter of fact, every time we have upgraded a car from a Uni-chip to a FCon we have always gotten the same feedback as Devil Z.
