anyways, think the big problem around the forum is okes not having respect for each others opinions, i mean you can disagree, debate ,argue
and still respect each others viewpoints...
I agree 100%, you cant knock someone elses idea untill you have tried it. The thing that pissed me off is that PFB said that there is so

I don't have that Attitude at all, whats getting me annoyed is I not only suggest stuff but I give proof to back it up most of the time if you want to argue give proof not just speculation.

Its like arguing that the world is round and someone says it flat , I can prove it round what can you prove

I have attempted to prove or back-up all suggestions I have given, I have given the cheapest and best route based on my research and then when I offer a viable solution normally the cheapest I get called names like we are in primary school at no point did I call gary anything other then gary.

Also most Items I argue about I am already using or have research alot about,It just reminds me of the same calibrator mentality that a car needs to have some type of after market management system. I still remember him telling me that you can never make the stock system work for any seriously power but there are CA18DET running in the US with 300+KW on the nistune system (the stock system).

Its the same thing Jon said about will you ever use coilovers to there full. Will you ever use launch control more then a few times at a track I don't think so it will loose its appeal just like white leather in a hot summer but you will use you Knock sensor to save your motor on a hot day or a bad tank of fuel I think so , I know the system isn't the best out there but for the money its petty damn good better then most out there.

I am just getting sick of giving info and getting attacked over and over and over, I gave info about injectors, Load devices and alot of other stuff to this forum, I have also built my own Damn motor and before that set it up to make 148RWKW no I don't want a prize and there are people out there and On this forum making allot more power and are alot more experianced but I have proved that I am not some idiot not that building a motor is difficult. It like I said anyone can tune an ECU system that has any type of experience with PC's anyone can assemble a motor its doing these things well with good fuel economy and reliability that takes years of experience.

I don't even put myself close to the group of elites like Rezlo and Hennie,Jap Spec, and so on the guys that have don it and most importantly it works and lasts and they have the dyno's to prove it but I am tying my best by getting the knowledge reading and research learning as I go and trying to help but it gets annoying repeating and arguing my point

you DO post very valuable information on this forum, and you do back it up - no one can doubt you there. you also have done very well by your car with the application of well thought out research, and by using very tight budgets - again i dare anyone to argue that!

but just like other people mentioned on this thread who have now left - you have a certain way of making other people sound like complete idiots even though they have valid points. that tends to REALLY piss people off!

a good example of friendly argument (discussion) that didnt lead to name-calling and swearing was between myself and RAW. he agreed with you about the value of the stock systems, and the features that they have that other systems dont. he also mentioned that these cheap systems dont have enough resolution to allow them to be frugal on fuel consumption. but then i posted about my gotech pro having 32 load sites per 500 rpm. he accepted what i said as true, made a comment about how far they have come and left it at that!

he could've told me that i'm a doos for buying gotech, and not sticking with stock and a remap, or any other kind of comment. yet he didnt. also - i never said that my gotech pro was better or worse than any other system. thats up to the buyer to decide.

i also backed up the nistune from facts that i've heard through sokar. i've never seen - but to me it sounds friggin cool. yet you told me that i am going to have endless shit with my MAP sensor as a load input, implying again that my gotech pro is going to be a complete waste of money! when that does happen, i will let everyone know how much of a doos i am rather than let you pre-empt it for me!

all i am saying is think before you get all emotional and start typing... and to be totally fair - the same goes for you gary. to everyone - rather focus on proving your point than getting emotional and posting a bunch of voodoo-psycho-swearing-hopefull-threatening-rants! :wink:

It open to interpretation, I have never gone out and said to anyone that they are stupid but I do wonder if they researched every possible solution before backing up there current set-up.

I have made mistakes in my set-up and there is a long list of repairs that I will be doing on my leave days, Its a bitter pill to swallow being wrong but I have been proved wrong a number of time what needs to be learn't by some people on the forum is to listen.

It's like I said if you had to meet one of the 80's F1 Turbo engineers will you really argue with him or will you whip out you note pad and take notes.

I will be taking notes
