Better for my superstarness . I will just buy my upgrades from someone else. But, i will say i was wrong. I admit it. I never said anything abou the blue springs. I thought they were the 15lb springs. I did not know. I am going to say that Matt does give great advice and it is worth its weight in gold because he does know tons. Im just on my period i guess. 3000, sorry too. ill be quiet now. I dont know why Matt freaks me out.

    And i didnt call my friend a prick because he thinks your nice....he was just being a dick the other day...i just ran with it
    I was going to ask if you were drunk or something. I tried to quote all of your rant's this morning so you could see them together and see how unnecessary it was but my work PC just doesn't work right on this forum. Obviously you see why Matt was fed up with you now though. I'm glad you admitted you were out of line and apologized. I definitely understand your frustration when working on these cars and pouring money into them and not getting the results you want. These days I just step away for a while until I can come back with a clear head.

    Bottom line is it's easy to be wrong even when you think you know your shit inside out. I don't know shit about Forge wastegates but after reading this thread it makes sense that they have to be calibrated to your car's turbo's.

    I think both have been acting like bitches. Sin could have solved thi by a simple message to Matt explaing what was wrong and maybe they could have owrked out what was wrong. Personally I though the same as most ppl. If I order 15ps isprings I expect that they won't crack open till 15psi.... not sure who is at fault there. As for Matt.... I have seen so many posts that just should be coming from someone like him. He jumped all over Sin's turbo thread in order to discredit the product and plug his own. That's extremely poor taste. The thread was not about compairing his to the DR stuff... just an informative thread for others. I also saw Matt post in another thrtead recently that had nothing what so ever to do with him or his turbos but he jumped in there and posted that he had the DR700 instock..... who fucking cares. Create thread about it. Don't spam other threads. Matt your products are awesome but you do act like a clown sometimes. Maybe that's just how you come accross when written... who knows. Either way what I have witnessed has left a sour taste in my mouth and I would think twice at supporting you.........

    But no party is innnocent here. Work it our between you and move on. Please don't drag this place down to the 3si level

    Meh, a lot of people do it. Some don’t care much about the AF thing. I choose to pretty much stay away from the other place but if people want to post there it’s there prerogative I guess.

    I take it you many "should not" , well man I'll talk how ever I like. You cant tell me what I can and cant say. I always wonder were this thing came from that Venders cant speak, when we say things that nobody would even think of jumping on a non vender for we get hung on a cross and rocks thrown at us. lol We are not even allowed to speak our opinions with out being jumped all over. Well sorry I dont play that game, I call a duck a duck... 14yrs later, I'm still here....

    That was not how it happened, me and my product were jumped all over and I merely defended it. Once again something a vender is never allowed to do. O well

    Your talking about Panpena's thread about his fuel rails, That post was a mistake and was not suppose to be in that thread. I clicked on a thread up-date link in my E-mail and clicked on the wrong one. That was suppose to be in the Pampena thread that was posted about the DR700 car they had just dynoed, as soon as it was pointed out to me I deleted it and put it in the correct thread. And that post was merely informing people that DR700's could be bought FROM pampena and installed there as well, I was trying to drum up business for them.

    Was a simply mistake, o ya another thing a Vender is NEVER allowed to make.

    You only say that because I'm a vender, because we are suppose to be allowed to be attacked and never defend our selves.

    Is that suppose to bother me?

    What exactly did I do that was wrong? Defend my self and post the TRUTH when I was attacked by 2 people in this thread, One who new the truth and was flat out lying, and the other that had no idea what was going on and jumped all over me too (Jfast)? What was I suppose to do just let my self be attacked and say nothing? Not post the PM's that proved he clearly got exactly what he ordered? Whats sad is that is exactly what some of people on these forums expect venders to do when attacked with lies and BS, is just cower down and kiss everybody ass because they bleave "your a vender and we OWN you, because customers buy stuff from you". I'm not sure were that comes from, because the silent majority does not feel that way. It's just the small percentage of keyboard warriors that got beat up allot as kids or did not get enough hugs at home or something. And what this small group of people has such a hard time understanding and makes them so mad is that people like me dont want people like that as customers any way, so I dont kiss there asses and that makes them so MAD.

    I would never think of treating another person like that regardless if I had bought something from them or not, I have venders that I have bought MILLIONS AND MILLIONS of dollars worth of parts from over the yrs and I would not even think of trying to bully them around just because I had, I treat them with the same respect I would treat somebody I just met. In fact most of them I know if I tried some BS like that would just tell me to my business elsewhere.

    Not that Matt needs help in this BS thread, but I was surprised by a recent (last week) customer service event with him. Seems appropriate to post here...

    I asked Matt a tech question in a PM for a product I wanted to buy from him. He has Boost-a-Sparks and HKS DLI on his website and I was thinking of going with BAS. Matt tells me to get HKS because he has blown fuses randomly with the BAS...Pause...Now you could jump to a conclusion that "of course he wants you to buy HKS, they cost almost twice as much!" ...resume... I replied to Matt that I'll take an HKS DLI and he can add it to my order. He replies that he doesn't have any in stock and not sure when he can get them in because of the HKS USA closing and suggests I buy it from someone else.

    Damn, he is just such an evil person. I have another example that is way more extreme of his evilness, but that can wait for another day.

    I bought some used turbos from a guy and matt took the time to look up through his records what turbine was ordered with them. Yeah he is harsh sometimes, but that's just the way he is. He honestly will go out of his way to help and never bullshits anyone. He would rather not have a sale than sell you the wrong thing

    It may seem like he pushes his products sometimes, but how do you expect a sponsor to behave? He has the best turbo kits available. There may be cheaper ways to go, but if you want the best and want something that actually works and fits out of the box there is no where else to go.
