i don't know what you are talking about here BUT i'm not calling anyone any names at all, this community of car enthusiasts and i have a story to tell. Don't like it? don't read it! With that being said Merry Christmas from Africa and i hope i'll have some video's to post when i get home.
Your wait time does not even come close to what I experienced---I went through a three year build process, and I just wanted to tear my hair out.
In the end Sharif finished up my car with 744whp on his dyno at 21psi. The car was/is a freaking monster and it took all of my frustration and pain away the day I received it. (Sharif did not have the car for most of that three year time period by the way).
But you are also right, that you are very likely to have issues with the car that will need to be addressed from time to time (and yes, it could blow up in 5,000 miles). You can only live without the car so long before it's not worth having it anymore. Consider staying on the conservative side of the tune unless you can afford to take your car to Atlanta anytime you need to.

Is this the GreddyTT with the HTA upgrade?
Wow that is just crazy. Sorry but I would take it out of that shop and take it elsewhere. Obviously Forged doesn't have the know how to do the job right and fix the issues. I've heard MANY horror stories about that shop. Why do people keep taking cars there? There are quite a few reputable and more experienced shops out there. There is a point where you have to cut your losses and just take it elsewhere. I'm very sorry to hear of all your troubles. I wish you luck!

This coming from a shop owner in MI that supports AAM. Like they haven't had any horror stories.

People keep taking their cars there, because they stand behind their work WITHOUT threads that call them out. Now you know. Good luck with your own shop. I know it must suck to have prospective customers in MI shipping their cars all the way to GA.

Can you record a dyno run and post the graph when you get to it por favor, i think we've got a few people other then myself interested in seeing what these turbo's are capable of. GO Sharif!!!
