Now being that Mr. Dean says he is located VA Beach, I did a quick search of his past posts, being that I never seen or heard of him before. Mind you I'm one of the most involved members down here in VA Beach, and I know most of the Hampton Roads Z/G owners personally.

Here is a quote from the thread How's your tune holding up?

Now most shops usually play the modest role when another shop is specifically mentioned, especially if they are right down the street from you. Well anyway the guy there came flat out and said that Mike gave me a bad tune and he's not going to fix it! By him saying that I began to think... Huum is this something that always goes on with AAM? Or is Turboxs just trying to get money out of me? So now what I ask you guys, have any of you done business with Turboxs? Besides just buying an Utec.

Now correct me if I'm wrong, but are you saying that AAM is right down the street from you??? Or is the "other shop" right down the street.
In either case I call , Mr. Dean. AAM is 4 hours away, and there is NO 350Z/G35 Shop in VA Beach what so ever. The closest Z shop is Tidewater Z, but they mostly deal with 240Z's, 280ZX's and 300ZX's, and they are a hour away in Poquoson, VA

LOL... Mr Dean is no doubt TeAm PrOSpEc. I was one of the Mid-A guys that he harassed which in turn caused his perm ban.

Here's the thread that caused his ban if you want to read up. You will notice the typing styles are the same.

Here's the thread about how OP tried to sell the problematic Procharger

Motor blew at 45mph...? Good one soldier!

In my head, they are good company. Had issue with AAM part before ( you can look under my threads), but clint fixed it WITHOUT any question ask. Plus their customer service? awsome.

Maybe you never run a business before, there is always customers, even how much you try stop. And also, even how HARD company try, there is always unhappy customers.

And don't forget what clint said

First you take bogus picts of things that wouldn't even work mechanically, tape on a blow off valve, are you serious. LMAO you act like I need you to work on my car; just to prove a point I told mike to send me my car back. I don't need to say anything, I have various witnesses and 2 other shops that say Mike couldn't tune a lawnmower. Clint since you want to try put people on blast how about Mike saying that he didn't give a Funk about any of his customers, which obviously reflects in the work that come out of your shop. I.e. idler pulleys falling off; and by the way how many motors have ya'll blown! I think the MID-A count is like 8 and counting. Clint why is AAM on the verge of closing down? That wouldn't be because of all the great customer service or the great complements that ya'll receive from previous customers calling the BBB How about this for comedy, Google Altered Atmosphere complaints and watch how many hits come up! Ya’ll try to act so cool but obviously the whole quid pro quo thing doesn't work. At the end of the day regardless how much you try to discredit me, your shop has history of being full of ****.
Hey, ummm..... Do you think its wise to trash a shop that HAS YOUR Z?!?!?!

Sometimes it helps to think before you act....Just some food for thought.

If the motor was all funked up to begin with why would AAM even do the work and tune it, why not even inform the customer that its beyond the threshold of safety, it sucks having a blown motor and getting owned and probably paying like $10,000 for the tune.
