I guess you could call it charity work. Help them 'open their eyes' to the world of car buying.

Fuck you.

that's kind of weird seeing that they are an APR dealer.

They're partnering with a tuning company for future turbo kit releases. That is all.

i mean SPM doesnt "use" a tuner, but they make all the same parts that APR does. so idk i just kinda think it's weird. but it could be a good strategy. GRD can try to sell a customer on APR's stuff, but if the price is too steep for them, then they can offer them the lesser priced SPM products.

They aren't just an APR dealer, they are THE distributor for the area, all of the Autobarns, Fox Valley, Shitjob Jacobs, etc. must purchase their parts and software through GRD.

SPM claims that they will have a tuning partnership for their new turbo products and it will be an all inclusive kit.

yeah, was gonna say I was not aware of SPM being with a specific tuner.

GRD doesn't stock a lot of that stuff for APR, so I wonder if SPM will send them stock to have on hand, or like you said, offer SPM as another option / lower cost to choose from.

maybe im missing it... but what did Ted do? I thought this time, he was actually giving facts and not talking down to people with DSG cars? :iono:

Yeah, I don't know much about their in store stuff, but they were helpful with the Bill Jacobs situation with my Tiguan. I really don't know much about GRD other than their reputation on here and the story about Tans car.

Why are you just trying to stir shit at any given opportunity?

Isn't there a Contour forum?
