This is one of the more intriguing cars we have tuned lately. Very impressive work done by RPM/ProRides. I was told that the three exhaust systems on this car (with two sets of electronic cutouts) took over 40 hours to build. When we started on this car it barely ran. The E67 ECU required a beta version of HPTuners to tune and many hours of correspondence with HPT before the car was brought to the dyno. We were pleased with the initial tune on this car and the horsepower numbers were impressive. I believe the car weighs 2600 lbs so run the numbers on your 1/4 mile calculators, it’s scary… RPM builds some very serious rides! GTM#2 is scheduled for tomorrow.

Just heard about this thread and was checking it out, I have found in this business not to trust anyone. I only meet the doc 3 times and he has spent a boat load of money with us. I just found to work on anything, buy anything, or go anywhere for anyone, to cover your ass first. We all work to hard in this car world and think everyone is like us, but they are not. Protect yourself first and it should all work out. At least I hope. I have learned the hard way twice and both times it was by people that really aren’t car guys that thought they were and I payed big time for it. Time and material only when there is a deposit first. It just hard because I have to pay someone to take care of the customers and the employees just to make sure everyone is on track for the same thing, customer get excited, employees want to go above and beyond and you have to keep them on the same page to build badass shit thats the hardest part!!! ---
