Ultimate tune, this not a good first thread to try and get involved in. Why don't you sit this one out from the sidelines and watch.

like for example "a hot chick can have a bad attitude, but still a hot chick" an ugly chick can have a good personality, but she is still f-ugly"

so go re-ninja-edit your post cause you are mistaken here

I just noticed the weight of those pistons of 407g. I had always heard those pistons were significantly heavier than the stock pistons. I just went and weighed a stock piston; It weighed 395g. Any idea how much the wrist pin on those Arias pistons weigh? stock pin is 105g.

i didn't disagree with the edited sentence in the first part
i am talking about the sentence where you state that sam still has me for support... which is hardly the case in fact totally the opposite actually. I already told you from the beginning the only side i was on from the beginning was Dons...

Can you stop? You keep talking about getting off topic, yet you keep going at it. You are getting just like Tauran.

Wow.

So much drama in the FI section. Maybe this forum could be re-named "Z's of our lives", or "All my Pistons".... anyways, Todd you've done a fine job presenting your findings and defending your name. Thanks for making your position and explanations clear, and open to prospective customers, in this dilemma. I must say it's a shame to see the trust fade among the shops that service the Z community's passion and dreams for performance because of threads like these. It makes finding a shop that instills confidence more difficult for the customer. I allow GTM the benefit of the doubt here, despite their aggressive and possibly presumptuous accusations towards you, to explain their position and findings. Perhaps honest mistakes were made? Perhaps I'm just too disheartened by the growing list of unscrupulous shops to accept GTM as being one of them. Despite GTM's past position and forthcoming explanation, I think the information collected so far from all sides of the argument confirms your stance as a fair and principled shop.

Will
