I drove 60 miles last night. My Z has the AAM test pipes, y-pipe, and single exit exhaust. Man is that thing so loud. I had one hell of a headache, but it sounds so damn nice when you hammer down.

At least when AAM f*cked you they weren't trying to come off as your friends. I guess when they do it like that and claim to be your friend it makes it worse. Not really concerned since it was more of a car friend/aquaintance than a friend but it did help me to learn a lesson in that regard. I hope Frank continues with his business practices that he has displayed so far because some others follow the saying; the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. The shop of choice for a few years now rarely mentioned or recommended for example. Shop owners need to see that with the internet the cutomer is empowered with all kinds of knowledge and we aren't going to go to a shop that rips people off/does poor quality work.

LMFAO can't even realize an exhaust isn't fitting right because the sway bar is on backwards so you take/send out incorrect exhaust measurements? On an $80,000 car no less. Dumb*ss.
Extend a customer's build time and again, keep the car for a couple of weeks after he(customer) tells you he wants to take a loss at your shop so it will be in the hands of a capable tuner(I refuse to refer to this guy as a tuner)/shop and you still deliver the car with oil leaks/other bullsh*t wrong, but mainly an incorrectly installed injector for cylinder #3. There went that motor. This is all documented/being documented.
Getting upset the same customer wouldn't let you work on his GTR.
Moving customer cars by using a dyno tie down strap tied to a hitch and wrapped around the front sway bar, popped off a blue G35s front bumper.
