2 possibilities:

A) You heard a rumor and wanted to see if it was true.
B) You are making up this rumor to stir the pot.

I thought it was better before your edit when you said "If I ever see you in the streets, run..".

We need to chill... As far as the tuning, just people talking ****!! My car had a slight set back with one piston ( wasn't properly machined ) that touched the valves.THE ENGINE WAS NEVER STARTED! So the heads & pistons went back to get redone & checked for clearances...the parts are back & the engine will be back together soon.. I hope ... The wait is taking it's toll ...KPG's car is running fine...I'll let him tell you guy's, when he's ready!! When you guy's go for a build on these car's make sure you have a second car to play with...


Suman, whats up with your build? As you can see it's not that easy...


Tom


BTW, Kevin does his own stuff...EVEN THE TURBO's

Lemons to lemonade.

For the record, any advice or warning Kevin had given to me has turned out to be correct...good and bad. I have a lot of faith in his judgment about these cars and what the car can and cannot/should not do.... he has refused to let me do anything halfway to complete even if it would cost him a lot of potential business.

He is a brilliant engineer. My 2c. Because of that, I plan to put my future decisions as they come up in his court for review. It has been worth every single little penny. And, I work darned hard for every one. If you wondered, I have multiple doctorate level degrees and I know bs from not. He is not bs. I use his stuff. I can go anywhere I want. He and I don't have some weird relationship and I don't consider myself some sort of cult member like some on this forum seem to suggest of tuner customers. I think for myself. He sometimes doesn't say want I want him to say.... This is not meant for any discount from him. I cannot use the power he makes on track...I am not good enough at driving yet. Period. I seek no gain from this post ever. I have a Switzer exhaust and Dan's JIC suspension system with AP parts....three vendors. I've had good luck with each within each product's domain. On my short list are a few others.

I'd prefer if discussion on this forum could be maintained at a high level. By everyone.

Oh, everyone will have bad days. Bad designs, bad whatever. Lets not just beat each other up. It is such a waste of time and energy. I am sorry for anyone having a bad build or time taken...but things happen. These are "just" cars. Look at a happy, healthy child and realize that "that" is important. Nothing on these boards is 1% as much.

My 2c. Flame away anyone. The above takes NOTHING away from anyone else.

Oh, this flame suit can handle 1000base/t incoming.



JB

reason i snap on this guy is because he's always talking a bunch of crap about other tuners, and he's talking about this super project 996 turbo that will take 10 years to complete

look at most of his posts... always bashing people's cars. always trying to stir things up with tuners.
you arent a car guy, youre like a mix between jerry springer and ricki lake.
and dude don't act like a big tough guy on the internet and continue to resort to call me names or challenge me to a race.

we're not in highschool (not sure if you went to highschool)
you dont have to respond back with insults either, this is the internet...


all im saying is to be more of a man, and less of a snake.
if you have a problem with a tuner, keep it to yourself...

and based on your track record, youre probably upset at kevin because he refused to give you 50% off his software.
i have UMW software on my car and love it by the way.


and as far as calling me an RPM nut hugger ...
i recommend RPM to everyone. why ? because they know their stuff, and they get it done in a timely matter
unlike the places you go to/ claim to go to, my car is done when its suppose to be done

1. Suman is not getting tuned at EPL; and
2. EPL wasn't mentioned once in this thread.

What are you talking about?

Oh geez - I opened this thread to read and gain some knowledge only to find name calling and rude behavior.

Let's all talk to each other as if you are face-to-face and not from behind a keyboard.

Let's all just try to get along...

Just my $.02

insults bro you started insults. You want to settle this master keyboard warrior Ill drive the car I have in my driveway and you can do the same and well settle this on the track. One week before my evo gets picked up by the new owner!!!! so lets see what your UMW tune can do against my cheap daily driver.... Next time I post keep out of my threads I asked a simple question about a rumor I heard form my buddies in Belgium. And so what is Kevin used a tunere from MRC or not why is that an insult Business is business if at th eend of the day the tune rocks then so be it. It leaves his shop its a UMW tune. Softronic repackages Proto tunes yet they are still proto tunes thats just the way **** goes. Oh and yeah I did get my high school degree and my college one for that matter, dont even pull this into a hole you cant chew.
