The GTM kit hasn't been as promising IMO. In talking with Sharif, it requires alot of work for correct fitment unlike the TT solution traditionally sold from Greddy. While it does produce the power, I think good will come to those who wait in this case.

Again, just my personal opinions based on those I've talked to.

Keep in mind the various years and style. With different ecu and parts (fuelpump) (exhaust for the g37 sedan) manifolds, ect. ect. between mine and christians car There were not really any fitment issues that im aware of. With the new g37 sedan which sharif is currently working on alot of things had to be changed and moded to work. I think you will find fitment issues with any kit that comes out for the g37. But this is just my opinion and can only really be answerd when other companies come out with kits.

I Don't relay think you have put in too much thoughts into your statement or maby you are confused because basically what you're saying is that Forged Performance don't know what they're doing .

How do you explain MODME DOING A DIY ON HIS BACK IN HIS OWEN GARAGE WITH OUT ANY FITMENT ISSUES IN A MATER OF FACT HE DID NOT EVEN CALL US ONE SINGLE TIME REGARDING ANY PROBLEMS .

Here is the thread so you can see for yourself

https://www.myg37.com/forums/engine-...2-install.html

So i suggest you have another conversation with sharif to clear up your confusion.

Throughout my install, I've learned so much about our cars and turbos in general. There are so many different areas where if you dont tighten it will leak, if you overtighten it'll break. From my experience, the GTM kit is very well designed and made. You can make adjustments to make everything fit well. The quality is also superb, I broke a few drill bits while tapping holes on the stainless steel intercooler piping.

However, there are also a few things that the GTM kit slightly lacks in. Although it's full kit and includes everything you need, there are some things that GTM expect you to do yourself. For example, the PCV fittings are not prefitted onto the pipping, you have to tap your own holes.

I dont have any experience with the greddy kit but I can tell you that you can't go wrong with GTM. Even though Sam and the guys at the shop are extremely busy and are hard to contact sometimes, they are very responsible and will take care of you.

I had some issues with my flashed tune and Sam personally tuned my car on the dyno. He spent at least an hour dyno tuning and working out all the small issues to make sure the car runs smooth.

I'd seriously consider the GTM but if you have the time, see what comes out over the winter months.
