Default GT Motorsports = GODLIKE

I just want to thank Sam and the GTM crew for getting my car into perfect shape. Before I drove down, she was running super rich, poor, and barely made any power (370whp) with the crappy Unichip. Car would also hiccup once in a blue moon, and I was overboosting dramatically as well.

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!!!

congrats!!

Did you change anything or did he just retune your unichip?

What are the mods on your car and what were your #'s before and after?

I want to take my car to them to get tuned when I get my utec installed.

Congrats again!!

That's the great thing about the way Sam tunes. It's so smooth that it does have a stock feel except with a lot more horsepower! Congrats bro.

I am really confused by these types of statements. A good setup along with a good tune will have smooth stock like feel. My car has always been as smooth as stock, even with the out of box unichip.

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!

I don't think the OP or myself are trying to say that other tuners don't know how to do this. Any good tuner will make your car have that "stock" feeling. All we are doing is giving Sam his props for being one of those guys.

So if, GTM = GODLIKE, does this mean that Sam is over 7 feet tall, shoots laser rockets from his eyes and his shit smells like rainbow sherbert?

^^^ Good point. I hardley think that Sam walks on water In fact I have seen and heard quite the oposite (which I will keep to myself), I do agree that GTM does pretty good work, but as for all the Sam and GTM are gods crap Lets be realistic.

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

You think that 370 rwhp is 'barely making any power'????


AND you are on a stock block?

I asked the same question on the G35driver board but no one ever seems to elaborate If you make a statement like that then it would be nice for the community to know what happened as there are always 2 sides to a story.
