Arrow Canceled my granatelli :sad face:

Had to cancel my granatelli order today. I really wanted the intake but just couldn't wait any longer. I called them again today and they said the same thing "next week", I said oh no you don't , cancel it.They were alway's really helpful and courteous but I just couldn't hold out any longer. So I called up doug at Bamachips , man he's a really cool guy, and ordered the JLT2 SCT2 combo . Should be here next week . Now it's really going to be a hard wait!

I think it flows a little more air. With Doug's help, it should make a couple more HP.

JLT II and SCT is what I run, you'll be happy

I don't have a fuzzy feeling about a Fuego tuner. No local support (for a while anyway) and won't be good for any mods past a CAI because nobody will support it. Kind of like having an Apple computer, it might be better, but everyone uses PCs

I guess I just had good luck. I ordered mine from Morgan last Monday. Shipped on Wed. Arrived today, and dyno'd tonight! 27.9 RWHP gain wahoo!

Im sorry you had bad luck. I hope you are happy with what you ordered and I'd have probobly been dissapointed as well.

Did you order the polished. If not that's probably why you got your's so quick.

You are right. I got the raw aluminum to match the raw ford valve covers!

40 days waaay too long.I just don't get these vendors...They want your business but can't get you product I was gonna get Granatelli polished,but I couldn't get them to call me back..They lost the sale to Brenspeed. I'm happy with my JLT2 and sct2 tunes. Brent is also a kick *** guy to work with .I also saved a bunch of money..My cai with custom tuneswas 554 shipped...4 days later Can't beat that with a freakin stick

Was your 27.9 RWHP also with a re-flash ?? or just the Granatelli cold air by itself ?? Just curious...

PVC tubing does not flow more air - neither does a tight 90^ bend. If I were not Granatelli saying it, it would not be bashing but I am sure some will say I am causing trouble - I am not trying to.

Again I know we put off a few people do to the polishing/Chroming issues we had so I am sorry AGAIN for that

My question to 2005sonicgt is why not switching the order to satin - IMO it still looks better and costs less.

Again not entirely true. We never said NO LOCAL SUPPORT. Who said it would not be good for any mods past a CAI. We will always support the part. The comment about Apple is true though – at this point SCT and Diablo have the edge if you really think a custom tune is a necessity. Look at it like this, if our flash tools work as well as our CAI systems do that is bad for all the shops that make a living selling customer tune under the auspices that it is required. Do not get me wrong customer tunes will always be spot on do to factory variations but it is tough to argue with 27hp out of the box

40 days is out of the question – I agree. Not sure why it took that long we have been shipping weekly as they trickle in. As for not calling someone back, our presence on these boards and attention to detail speaks as to how we try to treat our customers – not calling someone back is not normal

I still think the granatelli intake is the best intake...but I am about to
order headers and I was going to need a tuner anyway's so I just decided to get the intake/tuner package with custom tunes. If there was a gms/tuner package with custom tunes I would have been all over it

That is fair - Fuego will support header upgrade as well

Bad analogy. There's nothing I can't do with an Apple or Linux box than I can with a Windows PC.
