IS VERY VERY VERY WRONG.

A little bird told me today that the new owners is.....














MIKES FATHER!!!! So, if anyone is stupid enough to believe that they are going to change is in for a rude awakening...IIRC they did this once before, but Mike bought the company from his dad. Stupid is as stupid does i guess.

WE all knew it was his dad from day one we just couldnt get proof.

Thats why AAM wouldnt answer when we asked who it was here on the forum.

They need to just stick to making parts that seems to be the only thing they are good at.

Same here, the first time I met you was at the AAM BBQ when Claude and a bunch of people were there spring of 2009 when I first got my G35TT.

I always had good times with Clint and Jon, and I own some AAM machined parts, but i've never had any work performed by them. I have no bad feelings or hatred, just wish they'd run a sale on that fuel return system

AAM stage 2 fuel return system.
1. fuel rails had to be knotch cut on top because they wouldn't fit properly under the stock intake manifold.
2. The entire system leaked like hell.
AAM Oil pan spacer.
1. Leaked like hell from the AN bung fittings and just pain sucked a$$.

Or maybe I'm just bitter.

^ agreed Barny, I have AAM
1. True dual 3" exhaust
2. 3" Down pipes w/ open dumps
3. Oil pan spacer
4. Fuel return kit
5. Oil pan spacer
6. Throttle body spacer
7. Plenium spacer

I have never had a problem with anything except the the exhaust being very tight. But thats what you get when you stick an exhaust of that size on the car. I installed it with the car on jack stands. Luckily Mr. Hill was able to make it look perfect. I never purchased the rails, so I cant say to the quality of them. But they sold a lot of them. Sorry you had so much bad experience with them. I wouldnt allow Mike to tune my car anymore. That was lack of knowledge on my part. Frank (tuner) showed me what a real tuner can do!!! My car has never felt so crisp!

thats because everything Frank touches turns to gold! Frank is hands down the best mechanic I have ever seen. I am so glad he got out of the crap hole and started his own thing.
