I would love to get ahold of this guy. The brakes in my tgp are crap and no mechanic around here will touch them. Why did GM go with a electric non vacumn system anyway? Just so they could say they did it? Quote

Just so they could say they did it? so that when someone pulls a quarter mile wot and there is no vacuum because the motor is in boost, then they want to slow down. or you are running from the cops or something GM doesnt want you to wreck. they are good units, just nobody, I mean nobody I buy a tgp from, EVER changes, or even checks the fluid level. then the pump runs hot and cracks the housing.

Addicted2bass Posted August 15, 2007 Report Posted August 15, 2007 What other cars were those systems in? Mine doesnt leak its just screwed up. Quote
Garrett Powered Posted August 15, 2007 Report Posted August 15, 2007 I think there was the early GTPs and Lotus turbo cars. Jeff M talks about them on his website. Have you read all that new stuff he has on there yet? Quote
Addicted2bass Posted August 16, 2007 Report Posted August 16, 2007 No i dont think so. Whats the site? Quote
