    i dont understand why:

    1) the boost creeping to the set amount desired would be such a big issue

    2) if your tune for speed density is your response to (1) then, why not invest in an electronic boost controller? i have never understood why people cheap out on arguably the most important piece of equipment for the life of the engine (when modifying them).

    what are you going to do when atmospheric pressure changes? what about temperature? your manual boost controller will not account for variations in anything... it is a hole that lets xx ammount of air through. the density of that air could be a little or a lot, but the size of that hole will not change, which will in turn change your boost reading/setting.

    seems silly to me to cheap out on it when you can find good ebc's for $200

    for sin's application, i'm inclined to agree, future. for basic tune where the sky is NOT the limit, mbc's are perfectly fine.

    Ya like the 100 or so free Tech PM's or yours I have replied to you on and help you also for FREE, long before you had ever bought a single thing from me. To this date this is the ONLY thing you have ever bought from me as far as I know. Your welcome for that too.

    of my 1000's of customers over the last 14yrs you and Nelson are the only one who seems to be saying that (grate company you are in there). And both of you seem to relate totally just flat out kissing your ass no matter what you say to "customer service", those are 2 different thing. Read threw your threads on this and the other forum, and you seem to have problems with everything you buy and everyone you buy it from... interesting....

    I treat you the way you treat me. Long before you were ever a customer I went out of my way to help you with free tech support, and what did I get for that? You calling me all kinds of names when I finally dew a line in the sand when you started flat out telling me you bought parts from other shops and then contacted me for info on how to install them. And I simply told you to ask the place you bought it from. From that point on I was a a-hole in your eyes and deserving of blasting me any chance you got on the forums and your really surprised how a "treat" you now? Like I said befor even after all of that, I would have sent you the blue springs just to help you out even thow they are NOT what you ordered, till I saw this thread and saw once again how you were blasking me and flat out lying about what you "ordered". So now you reap what you sow, live with it.

    lol, So let me get this strait, one of your friends met me, and thinks i'm a nice/cool guy so now he is a Prick? Man you have problems, you really should seek help.

    P.S. Get some help with this inferiority complex you have towards me. I'm just a regular guy, there is no resin for you to be so threatened be me that the mere mention of my name brings you to such a frenzy. Go look into a mirror and say "I"M A SUPER STAR" or something.......

    There are 2 ways to make a car fast.
    #1 use the Right combo of parts
    #2 Throw so much money at it that the car has no choice but to be fast.

    lol. Ok, i dont know if i ate something last night that caused me to black out and post this shit. Wow. Matt, i dont know why i flipped out on you. I really dont. I guess if i feel i get screwed i say whats on my mind at "that" point in time without thinking it over. I am sorry for the misunderstanding. Its cool that we dont do business. 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
