Smile Rate GT Motorsports intalls on FI supercharger

We need some info about GT Motorsports in LA. Anyone have any good or bad personal experiences at GTM?? Would you recommend?? Want to have FI (supercharger installed in my 350Z) I was planning on having them pick my Z up from Monterey, Cal and have them drive it down to L.A.

I just want to make sure we're making the right decision. I spoke to SAM.

Thanks for you input

Haven't heard anything bad about them yet, and I'm sure you already know my opinion. He stands behind his work, and that, is what makes him great. The knowledge, expertise, and experience in pushing a current platform's limits is what they excel at. So, anything less than that extreme, across the spectrum, they are experts at.

Once you're in, he'll give you his cell number to be reached 24/7. In case of any issues. You'll be in good hands.

A little off-topic but may I be a test subject for the HR n/a cams please?

To the OP, I have heard nothing but good things about GT motorsports. Sharif at forged recommends them so they must be good.

The facility is great. My buddy Blu_Blrr got his single turbo installed there and seems to be pretty happy with them. I will get him to post in here.

Got your email, Vince-


Yes, GT Motorsports are very very good at what they do. In my opinion, they are the embodiment of professionalism and when you see their facility along with all the cars in it (with much of them having quite extensive work done) you will see what I am talking about.

I will be turning my Z into them probably next weekend to reinstall my single turbo system. They are a one stop shop, pretty much and one of only two shops that I completely trust.

I think you will be very impressed with their facility, quality of workmanship, engineering and end product.

No corner cutting, no shade tree mechanics or shady dealings. GTM top notch all the way!

THere is simplt no one better out there...period.

Top notch facility and Sam stands behind everything he does.

It'd be foolish not to go there, especially if you are so relatively close.

Some would say that, yes.

I know it sounds cliche to say this but you definetely get what you pay for and it's nothing outrageous as far as the price is concerned.

If there does happen to be any difference in price from another shop in regards to labor or equipment, the difference would be small. Overall, their pricing is competitive.

+1 with everyone, Sam's shop has the experience behind them, and the capable facility / staff. I think they can accomodate your build regardless of how crazy or subtle you go.
