Since Jesse's not going to do it, I think it should be brought to the follower's of this thread's attention, that the original included pieces of this kit have changed (see below posts). I've since had a change of heart as to the comments I'll keep to myself for now, but I think it should be pointed out no announcement was made that a major part of the kit was misrepresented, and then quietly changed. Unfortunately I found out the hard way, which makes me wonder, if so many kits had been sold (as represented), how was it I discovered the error about what tuning was included with the package for the first time?? Holding tongue for now.

Hello JWSchmidt3,

I had to leave early Thurs after I talked to you and I did not get back until this afternoon. As soon as I found out from you that the kit didn't come with the uploader I changed it on our site and in the post because I didn't want anyone else to think that was included. I can assure you that you were the first customer to call and point out that it is a reflash and not an uploader. If there was an uploader option or anything I could have done to help I would have. All I can do now is apologize and make sure future customer know what's included.

In my defense this was the exact information I received from the Manufacturer.

In regards to your other comments, I am truly sorry for the misunderstanding, but please be assured I am not just a salesman, I am an enthusiast just like all of you and always want every customer to be a happy customer. When stuff like this happens I take it personal and it keeps me up at night.

JWSchmidt3 I am sorry, if there is anything I can do to help now or in the future, just let me know...

I just want to be clear.... This was not a "quiet change in what's included" The uploader was never part of the kit, it was always a reflash. The information I originally received from the manufacturer was incorrect.

Anyone considering this kit should read this thread:

http://www.hummerforums.com/m_84197/tm.htm

I bought the kit, and do not recommend purchasing it. That's all I can say for now unfortunately.

Damn John...........I hate to hear you and so many others are having trouble with this kit. If your guys can't
get it to work right, that doesn't bode well for the average Joe trying to do a home install....

I can't wait to hear the details on this little adventure....

I JUST BOUGHT A TURBONETICS KIT, THE INSTALL HAS BEEN EASY. THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH A CLAMP THAT WAS NOT THE DIAMETER OF THE PIPE AND ALSO THE KIT CAME WITH THE WRONG AIR FILTER. THE DIAMETER ON THE AIR FILTER WAS OF 4"' WHILE THE INTAKE PIPE IS 3"' SO I HAD TO BUY A K&N AND SEE WHAT I DO WITH THE AEM FILTER.SO I HAD TO SPEND EXTRA MONEY ON THE FILTER, WHICH I THINK IT I SHOULD NOT HAD TO SPEN EXTRA AFTER SPENDING 4300 ON A TURBO KIT. ALSO BOUGHT A BORLA EXHAUST. EVERYTHING IS INSTALLED PROPERLY PRETTY EASY BOLT ON TURBO TO BE HONEST. HAD TO PUT SOME SPACERS IN ORDER TO PUT BACK THE FRONT METAL (THAT SAYS H3) PROTECTOR DUE TO THE INTERCOOLER PIPES, AND ALSO NEEDED TO DRILL A DIFFERENT HOLE IN THE BRACKET THAT HOLDS THE INTERCOOLER SINCE WHEN INSTALLED THE INTERCOOLER LOOKED SLANTED. I AM STILL WAITING ON THE COMPUTER IT WIL GET HERE ON FRIDAY OCTOBER 5TH. JESSE I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY FEEDBACK OR INPUT ON THIS KIT. I HAVE BEEN READIGN ABOUT SOME ENGINE LIGHT PROBLEMS AND SOME TRACKION CONTROLL ISSUES WITH THE KIT. ALSO AROUND THE FORUM I HAVE READ THAT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS LACKING. IS THIS ALL TRUE?. NOW THAT I HAVE EVERYTHING IN PLACE I WOULD NOT LIKE TO DRIVE A FUTURE PROBLEM. FOR THE MONEY THAT I PAID AND WHAT A TURBO IS I WOULD LIKE TO GET THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE. CAN YOU PLEASE ADDRESS THIS ISSUES AND PROVIDE SOME FEEDBACK?
ALSO I HAD TO BUY THE TIMER AND DID NOT GET THE BOOST GAUGE FOR FREE. AT THE SAME TIME I DID NOT GET THE 100 DOLLAR DISCOUNT THAT I JUST READ HERE WHICH YOU ARE AVERTISING. I JSUT BOUGHT THE KIT IN SEPTEMBER, THE SALESPERSONE I HAVE BEEN SPEAKING TO IS GRANT. HE HAS BEEN PRETTY HELPFULL. 

I WILL WAIT FOR YOUR RESPONSE AND FEEDBACK ON ALL THESE ISSUES.

Hey Cheso,

I just sent you a PM, I need to know the name the kit was ordered under to check what special you qualified for at the time and then I can answer that and all of the rest of the questions. I PM'd you incase you didn't want to post your info publicly...

Thanks

Hello Cheso,

Thanks for the PM and thanks for the order. I'll attempt to answer all of your questions, if you have any further, don't hesitate to ask

1) Air Filter: I wish you had contacted us; we would have gotten the correct air filter sent out immediately. Is the K & N you bought the OILED type? If so, send me an e-mail and I'll get you the correct AEM Dry Flow. The MAF is right after the filter so you do NOT want to use an OILED type air filter. It can cause issues with the MAF reading over time. If not, I'll still be more than happy to swap the filter for the correct one.

2) Install: I am glad you were happy with the install, except for some pushing and pulling here and there (it is a tight fit), most of our customers say the kit was fairly easy to install.

3) Engine Light Problems: We had one customer check back with us with the check engine light issue. It all stemmed from the traction control light. We worked with the head of R & D at Turbonetics to get it resolved for the customer. I have not heard from any new customers, but my guess would be that Turbonetics is now including that FLASH with the kits. The development mule H3 Turbonetics used did not have any of the traction control check engine lights and has been driven HARD for the last year. This is why the original FLASH didn't take those into account.

4) Customer Service: The other thread that is linked above was NOT one of our customers. I can assure you that if one of our customers has a problem we will do our best to fix it. If we can't fix it, we will make sure that it is handed to the right people at Turbonetics and followed up on until the issue is resolved.

There are 2 customers from this Board that have had issues, 1 was the check engine light and as I said in #3, we worked with Turbonetics to get that fixed for him. The other customer has a lift and larger tires and the tune from Turbonetics was made for the vehicle in stock form. What I was told was that a simple MPH correction in the CPU does not compensate for the gearing change the larger tires make and that a more detailed tuning procedure will be needed to smooth out the tune. However, I did give the customer a $100 discount on the kit as he knew ahead of time he had to re-tune for his specific set up. HP tuners tuning credits are $99 for the 2 credits needed to tune the H3. We are actually still working with Turbonetics & the customer on this one and I am waiting for an update.

5) Site Sales Special: You ordered the kit in August and said you found us on Google with no reference to the Message Board. In August, the special was FREE Shipping (normally $100 - $120) which you received. The current Special is $100 off, but you would have to pay for shipping. So the new special basically evens out with the other one, if anything, you paid less with the FREE Shipping special.

Hope this helps clear things up, let me know if you need anything else...

-J
