Maybe your hose problem should be addressed by the company who did your work. Speed Gallery I believe. Why would they turn you lose in that high hp car with those weak stock hoses? It is a comon problem with most high HP turbo cars ... maybe if you had a decent tuner then your hoses would be staying put.



BTW what are your dyno numbers? You seem to be willing to bash ... lets see what the mighty speed gallery has done with your car. I find it odd that you had them do all that work but still do not have any idea what your actual numbers are. Do they even have a dyno to tune with or are they just guessing?? As long as you believe what their estimate is then I guess it is all good though.

Perhaps if you stopped calling people names and belittling them when spouting the accolades and performance of your car, you might have some credibility. Based on this post and many I have seen from you, your credibility rating is in the negative territory. By the way, do you even own a Porsche???

First of all, where I do my tuning at Speed Gallery, I am dealing with the most honest, fun to be around people that have more integrity and knowledge about these cars than anyone else I have ever worked with in my life. I have never seen such great service and care for customers, along with great prices and follow up. I posted earlier that I am waiting for new, stronger clamps to hold my stock tubes together b/c I am not a dumb *** like you who would spend $1300 on some silicon hoses.

You can go to hell for non-shalantly attemping to **** talk them passive agressively. Why dont you go check out the European Car's 996TT shootout (www.eurpeancarweb.com) and check out which car came in Second Place... those guys at Speed Gallery built that car and it was a TTCab, kicking the **** out of a bunch of coupes. Which one did EvoMS build? Oh yeah, the car that came in Second to LAST. Who is the company that has promised customers that their cars will make 669rwhp and have sat in the shop for nearly half a year waiting for them to figure out what went wrong... not my tuner (thats all I will say).

your soul is dog****.

Good one. Some advice...Stop bashing other people's posts by personally attacking them with lewd and profane comments. It offends me as I am sure it does others. I not a moderator, but I would imagine if it keeps up, you will be gone from this forum before your next stock hose blows...

I would imagine that from a political standpoint that many other users would have to be banned as well for hurling the same kind of insults and making E-threats.

Matt, they do, sometimes color is fine, as in PG-13, but personal attacks in combination with that vernacular is over the top. Yes, to all.

Thanks in advance,

All the guys from By Design left and opened their own business.



Matt.... is there anyone who actually likes you in the least little bit? Im not trying to be rude, I'm just wondering.... it looks like at one time or another you've alienated everyone.
looks like you are right, but I am not going to back down from my opinion of tiptronic. I am not going to let a small group of 6speeders make me admit that I am wrong b/c I feel the way I do. If anyone on here was to put themselves in my shoes, backed into a corner with everyone attacking your opinion, you might feel defensive too. Maybe I reacted somewhat immature, and lost my temper and poise... there is no more point to argue. I guess I have become a notorious, E-celeb!
