Smile A big thanks To Jim, Shaun, Ritchie and the guys at JDM

I want to publicly thank the crew at JDM. With all the bashing recently, I felt it would be nice to see what the tuners will do for a customer.

They took good care of me the past few days. They installed my new Works blower for me, dynoed and tuned the truck,fed and put me up in their house overnight.

For all this work they didn't charge me a penny.

I also want to say hi to Kyle and Jeremy, it was nice to meet you guys. I know you will be a great addition to our lightning family.

Thumbs up

Don
I know what you mean i was there last thursday from 830 to 830 getting work done and everyone there was great. Jim, Shaun, George, Julie everyone. Treated me like i was family and like i said in my post went above and beyond what they had to. After meeting people in person it lets you see just how much B.S. there is on these boards.

Ya it has a nice whine.

So far so good, I had to adjust the boost bipass when I got home, it was oppening up a little to quick. I think I got it adjusted good now, in the quick test drive I did after I adjusted it feels much better. With anything new sometimes it takes a while to dial it in.

I couldn't get on it to much on the way home, because I had a short block in the back, that I deliverd to a guy in Mass that blew his stock motor. He tried to a hypertech chip and it went kaboom.

Thumbs up Don.

Dedication, devotion and just plain hard work in making our
trucks the best they can be is what I saw and experienced
when I went to JDM.
How anyone could bash this kind of work ethic and customer
commitment is beyond me.

Have a great day eh ! ......... Dave

Don,


Good Post, I think sometimes we take it for granted the Extraordinary Way Jim and his employees take care of the Lightning Community.

I didn't think anyone has run a Hypertech Chip in three years.

I know you're sleeping Good now that you have your new Tune.

Awesome numbers BTW

Jim

Don have more respect for yourself than this, please!
No Charge??? Of course not, they knew you would go home and post good things and after all the money you spent, you shouldnt have to pay anymore money.

Later...

dude, I'm sure its not about the money...

I wanted to pay in full for something custom made for my Vic, and Jim flicked me off anyway... too bad I had a whole list of people ready to place orders.
