Default Thanks to GTM crew

As Sam is probably to busy to post, I thought I would. I just wanted to thank them for all the work they have done on my build to reach this point.

I may have left out some of the items that have been done to the car but the basics are;

Wiseco®/GTM® Extreme Duty pistons 8.5 compression
Carillo rods
Mag and micro polishing of the crankshaft
Balancing of the rotating assembly
Rear main seal assembly
GTM® Race bearings (standard bearings)
ARP® 2000 11mm head studs
Resurfacing (decking) of the block
Boring and honing of the block (with a torque plate)
Assembly of the short block
Deathwerks 660cc injectors
Walboro pump

APS TT system
Fast Intentions exhaust and test pipes
Stillen Sway bars
GTM Level 3 transmission upgrade (including VB and Edge Racing TC upgrade)
B&M Upgraded Tranny cooler
Stillen Upgraded oil cooler
Crawford plenum spacer 5/16
Greddy catch can
Blitz SBC boost controller
Upgraded actuator springs (red)
GTM ECU reflash
HKS FCON V Pro
HKS FCON Navigator
Volk SF Challenge 19" rims
Tein CS coilovers

And the numbers are;





And my car;



The car drives like the day I bought it from the dealership, it still has the stock feel until you put your foot down . Again thanks for everything GTM (if your reading this )

VERY nice setup, I'm sure you'll enjoy it. However, judging by your build sheet, I think that car has a good bit left in it power-wise.

I think this is at 14psi but I am sure they will chime in later.

The car does have quite a bit left in it, this is on completely stock heads. The plan is to go back sometime soon and get their stage 1 head package, the turbo cams and external wastegates and then see what she can do. Just waiting on a quote for the work

Not sure if I stated that this is a 5AT

And I think Sam has a video of the car on the dyno.

The idea is to get over 500rwhp so we shall see.

To all the repeat customers, just make room for me when I return...

It was a pleasure working on your car, Glad you are happy with it. We have been very busy getting cars out, working on the website, etc. Haven't had time to post many cars up lately.

Here are some pics of your car with dynograph and video, hope you enjoy them!

Which return fuel system is in this car?

Your plates are available for the public to view on a daily basis.. They are on your car for the world to see. I never understood blacking out plates on the internet.
