Who said they were buying a Supercharger from RB TECH? I never said or intend to buy a supercharger from anyone at any cost.

Any supercharged car I buy will come from the AMG factory with a full warranty.

Yes, Suspension King = Ralph B.

He was put on a temproary ban for violation of the Terms of Use policy.

Thanks

EXPOSE IS MOOT!

Those Expose pics and article look somewhat suspect to me. Probably done by a disgruntled ex-employee - how else would he have access to the work area to take the so-called Spy pictures. All those pictures are not "spy" shots - How do you get a guy to pose and do a thumbs up on a spy photo? Those comments about the Lorinser, (which is mispelled Lorenser) F1 body stuff seem bogus because I am quite sure that RBTech can buy Lorinser stuff wholesale from CEC.

Plus, what does using Bondo for repairs in the Body Shop have to do with a engine tuning or a supercharger install in the Engine Shop. Just my observations.

what ever I like
Suspension King not Baned

Sorry about not anouncing who I am .
however
No one makes enything out of Bondo .

My doors are open 10am to 6pm every day .
also that " Auto Undercover" has no one taking credit for it .
maybe because it is illegal to slander someone in this manner.
also because it is an ex employee who took those photos and made the storys to go with the photos.
I could take a photo of enyone or enything and make up a story .
you can decide for your self

Ralph,

As there has never been any bad blood between evosport and RBTech, please explain to us all what the fact that a "moderator works for evosport" has to do with hiding your identity?

As for the Auto Undercover expose, your explanation is absolutely plausible and if it is not reality, you should takes steps to clear the air in a professional manner.

Hiding your identity, then blaming that on the fact that sponsors of this board are your competitors (not sure how Kleemann actually is, but that is your call) is not a great way to gain credibility.

We all gain from having a variety of enthusiasts and industry people here. We gain further from everyone being open and honest, right or wrong, honesty goes a long way. Even if what you are saying gets you flamed, honesty shows integrity.

If you want to take part here, and we all hope you do, please be up front with everyone on the issues you post on.

Thanks

Brad
