If they got banned for the crap with MHP thats kinda unfair. LET has been a valued and respected member of this forum for some time now.

If this is the case I feel LET had every right to respond to MHP calling there tune basically crap in one of their threads. MHP was talking about how their tune was the "Four Seasons" and LETs tune was "Holiday Inn"

LET would have never chimed into that thread if MHP didn't say that.

+1 I got pms yesterday and early today too.

Even with the "MPH tune review" thread, I don't think LET ever said anything "crap" to "MPH tune" but the other way around. If you read the thread you would see that there are only like two people that are clearly on "MPH tune" side, one with a new tune that hasn't been on the car long enough (trouble free) and one voted himself the best

Well if get banned? it should have been Chicago_x nickname not LETMotorsport. If LET got banned somehow, we can all send the operator a pm telling it was unfair.

Just my 2cents

Ooooh look out! Don't talk about MHP or else he is going to come in here and challenge us to a competition... He IS the record holder after all
I am so scared! He will probably call me out to a 1/4, then a push up and a bench press. Not to mention all those third world countries he sponsors.

2300 for a tune..?

Renntech didn't charge that much in 2005

LET would have never chimed into that thread if MHP didn't say that.
from a personal stand point (since I ain't customers of either) MHP seems to be talking a lot of **** with little to back it up. claiming all kinds of numbers on their site with no actual proof other than few stingy little picture of timeslip that could've been from any where.

and looking at their dyno sheet from their site their stock dyno claim on the CLK63 BS is far off what EVOsport dynoed on the CLK63. After tuning they also dyno less than EVOsport's tune. How the hell can this joker claim that they're the best in the business. I've never heard of them till now as well.

MHP products asking for BRABUS, CARLSSON tuning price. no thanks.

and then why the hell does MHP's dyno of their supposed V2 vs stock graph power curve looks eerie similar to RENNtech's power curve? This is suppose to be completely different tune right? I pulled the RENNtech graph off dragtime.

MHP

RENNtech


as for LET, we all have seen and lived how Jerry and Erick put their time into the C32. There's not much doubt what they are capable of doing when they get their hands on it. Should've stayed out of the topic tho, however it wasn't warrant for a ban as I've see nothing wrong with what they stated in the thread.

All i can say is wow!
Totally unfair, had MHP not uttered the words "Holiday Inn Express" it would not have turned out as bad.

Well if you ask me someone should ban C55Asleep? as well for driving a truck!
joke......

Freakin' politics - I don't know the full story - and I have a SpeedInnovations ECU Tune - I do have a few LET performance parts in my AMG powered Crossfire... I've communicated with Jerry (and Erich in the past) to know that they are not Sh*t talkers.......

Something has to be up.....

You C32 owners forum needs to come over with us. We don't have internet police and generally get along. Since we don't have paid vendors or anything like that, you don't have any advertising either. Just post and go. We have all the same parts and not only will you get advice from LET,Needswings, TVT but from countless others. Have someone ask the owner for a C32 and E55 forum.

I just dropped an email to Jerry asking "what's up?" Hopefully, we will get the straight scoop here.

This is a travesty.

LOL...what the ****...I got PMed by YNOT600 exclaiming their recorded holding cars etc etc and he is already on probation.

he mentioned jrcarts CLK63 BS as one of their tuned car, but from dragtimes I was just looking at that was updated in Sept. jrcart titled the car EVOsport CLK63 blk series with 75shots of nitrous running 123mph 11.6sec.

now i'm confused. is/has EVOsport been using MHP tuning now and for how long? I thought they were using Powerchip?

What BS.......I used to like the C32/C55 forum. The Crossfire forum sounds like a good option.
