I don't know much about flashes and I don't know a lot about forums. One thing I have learned about forums in my short tenure here, is that if sombody's Porsche hiccups, we read all about it on 6speed. Why, anybody else with similar problem, etc. Why is it that, if there are all these alleged problems with GIAC, they have not come to light earlier.

 

Can I get an AMEN? I'm glad someone finally said it.

 

I dont think there are any issues with the typical flashes, just some guys with 700 kits from earlier Porsche models. But then you have to ask yourself when changing out so many more parts the easiest thing to blame is the software for a CEL etc.

 

I am still very happy with the work that GIAC/AWE did on my GT3 and would highly recommend both of them without reservations. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiaw3YHrRMs

 

Can I get another AMEN?

That is exactly my point, and I have been telling people this for years. Faulty hardware, poorly engineered hardware, and lousy vehicle maintenance can make a software calibrators life miserable.

We have developed a variety of mass market kits for VW, Audi, and Porsche. They have all used G.I.A.C. software. G.I.A.C. is only as good as the tuner that is developing the hardware. We have a team of engineers on staff to make sure that there is no guess work. We strive to make sure the hardware is perfect BEFORE G.I.A.C. gets involved. Once we have all bases covered, they tune it.

I think many 6speeders don't really know too much about our company. Let me give you some info that some might not know.

1. In business for 17 years.
2. G.I.A.C.'s first dealer.
3. Located in Willow Grove, PA. We occupy a 10,000 square foot facility.
4. 20 Full time employees.
5. On Site exhaust manufacturing. All Porsche exhausts from start to finish, except for tips, are made at this location.
6. CNC machine on site.
7. CNC mandrel bender on site.
8. Mustang AWD chassis dyno.
9. Hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of test and manufacturing equipment.
10. Winners of multiple awards and shootouts.
11. Over 400 wholesale accounts worldwide.
12. Shipping 40-60 packages per day.

We are not working from our home, nor are we only sustained by our local market. We are an engineering driven company that plans on raising the bar VERY high in this market.

This is just some of what it takes to make it easier for G.I.A.C. to do what they do.

 

HOLY HELL. I have yet to see that video of yours. The car sounds SICK! Cup car!

Really impressed... I am glad you like it.

 

+1

I was at VIR before 4th of July and heard a 997 GT3 RS with AWE exhaust...it was unfreaking believable. The sound was pure sex.

 

Here is another example of how we engineer our products. This particular component is for the new Audi 2.0T A4.

sounds like people are just looking to point the finger

 

If companies like yours keep there word there would not be so many people reporting to others the negative experiences that they have had.

 

Nice. The car sounds great.

 

Mike,

You guys at AWE make great products. We have definitely enjoyed and been impressed with the exhausts that you have sent us over the years.

 

Sounds great. Do you have a version of this video without the background music? TIA.

 

Andrew. Nice to see you posting. There have been several discussions over the years about issues your clients have had with their cars. As I notice you are only on your 15th post, it's understandable you have not been involved in any of the discourse over the years. I went to your web site, a few month back, to try and get Garrett on the phone. No phone number was listed. I'm glad to see you are finally available to provide service to your customers. I had been having issues for years. My first issues began in 2003 with the GT640 kit, prior to GIAC/EVOMS using the diode. 5 years of discussions, on this board, have occurred with not a single post by anyone from GIAC. I'm glad to see you have decided to get involved. You are correct, I no longer have a need to get in touch with you.

Mike

 

Excuse my ignorance but what is diode? And why was it a culprit to the GT700 problems?
