I would have to say I do not know much about tuners or what they claim, but if this whole thread is over that youtube video than people have too much time on their hands.

man, your like the "riddler" from batman . I assume its Renntech u speak of in this "hypothetical". Doesnt matter to me...my car used to have everything Renntech...pulley, tune, etc...but i wanted more. They sell quailtiy stuff but at crazy prices...and are not real open to stuff other than theirs...so I moved on.

Do you honestly plan on telling the name of the tuner...because if not what was the point of making this thread. all thats being done is people pointing fingers...

how about u give some really good clues, maybe a riddle or something.

What would you say if you found out that a "reputable" member was lying about posts? Hypothetically speaking ofcourse.

LOL!

From the looks of it, someone is really salty! I definitely hit a nerve! I think everyone can read between the lines here. If I cared enough to bust this person out, I would have done it and in person. I flew down to Florida a few months back on the same weekend that the Exotic Rally mile event was being held. I chose to spend the day relaxing and shopping rather than go to watch a boring event with inaccurate timing equipment only to prove a point which I could really care less about.
My original post's intent was to expose the shady business pratices used by a certain tuner without exposing the person who shared this information with me to a lawsuit. I hope I have done that and am sorry I had to go about it a round about way. I'm much more of a directly to the point type of person by nature, so this was very frustrating to me also.. Trust me when I tell you, this person (who disclosed the facts regarding the business practices of this tuner) is very reputable and had no need to lie. I can honestly say that I was entertaining the idea of having Renntech tune my car until I was confronted with this information. Not too crazy about having nitrous sprayed in front of my car while it's on the dyno. That was a C63 btw.

a message to the tuner and involved parties:
"Bob-O-The-Hut".........how would I know that name? You know that I know.........would you like me to disclose more? I won't even get into the C63 stuff. Every time you post something cute, I'll uncork a little more of this genie bottle I have. The ball's in your court.

I think there is a "unsubscribe" feature. Should do the trick.
