What would you say if you found out that a "reputable" Tuner was lying about mods?

I guess another question would be: how does this "board member" have intimate knowledge and "conclusive proof" that these hypothetical steel braided lines that are a conduit for an "unknown substance" exist. Unless of course this board member is employed by the hypothetical tuner or has at least seen the hypothetical car up close.
All of this is hypothetically speaking of course....

No disreopect to the tuners in the world but I think most, if not all, jazz up their numbers a fair amount...

+1 I think everyone exaggerates a little bit and or maybe tweaks things to make numbers read higher. Either way, please disclose this seller so we can move forward with the facts and possibly protect buyers if proven true.

I think the right thing to do, considering this is a forum, is to let us all know the name of the tuner that you're talking about. That's what this forum is here for, IMO, so we can help each other out. And then, obviously, we'll have the tuner come in and defend themselves. Hopefully (for the tuner's sake) this will all have been one big misunderstanding. I think we all know how fast word spreads and how fast word of mouth can lead to the end of a company.
With that in mind, we should all refrain from any namecalling or immature ****. Just stick to the facts.

Have to love yet another thread with inside information that goes no where except with a lot of finger pointing and NO real facts to back up said fingers.
The back scenes around here are tuff.
My vote is like everyone else's. Spill the beans already
On a side note, if a tuner EVER asked me to sign a letter of confidentially, I would laugh at them and walk away with MY money

I Have a 7 year old car now and still have to custom make most my mods, as "the shops/tunrs/sponsors get run off".. Kind of self destructive , if you ask me.. AMG must be the only mass produced performance car with this negative aftermarket scenario..
