I would have but the dyno at his shop was occupied and plus, he charged me for 2 hours of dyno time when I started the project. He was done b4 and went to dyno tune it but the heads lifted and the gasket blew. Also 1 of my turbos went bad. He went to schedule another session but the dyno shop was booked and I thought, well if im paying for it anyway, might aswell take it somewhere closer to home and where they can get it done right away. GT Motorsports has a rep of delivering when they say it will be done... I didnt wanna wait anymore basically

lol, are you talking about "The Dyno Shop"? I don't know how they get business with the prices they charge.

negative. Not yet, GTM is working on the car right now but its just a matter of time until their finished. Thanks for following up though. Sam just left out of town yesterday for like a week and a half so I will have to wait for him to get back. Im not stressing about the wait too bad though, Ive already waited forever.
