Wow, I made a post this morning regarding the turbo kit for sale from Function Tuned in the Mid-A Marketplace. Come back this afternoon and apparently the OP had deleted the thread after asking for opinions regarding the situation. I guess he didn't like my opinion?
I have not had any work done at FT nor am I a supporter of any of their competition. I was simply posting as a general consumer and Z/G enthusiast in the Mid-A area. For shame...

You guys missed out on some fun times, had the Z out for about 3 hours and drove places with no goal in mind. Went down the severn backroads, went over to Annapolis, felt like a badass **** ******* driving downtown annapolis, then over towards bowie. I forgot just how many heads the Z turns =)~
Highlight of the day, I was able to play with a bike. I made a Yamaha R6 feel pretty bad. At least he gave me the thumbs up after he caught up.
Fun times.
Tomorrow = Cleaning the Z day =`(

How stupid do you think we are? Do you expect the rest of us to jump on your hater bandwagon?
Well I have never met or had any firsthand experience with you but in my opinion I think you're an idiot.
What do you think of my opinion?

Solid day of autox today......I killed more cones today then I have in the past 5 events combined, but still came out with a solid result. My best raw run (not including cone penalties) was 11th quick on the day out of 60ish.
Here is what the course looked like from a 500whp 2250lb cobra. This car and driver run at the national level in SCCA XP (highest in the business for non open wheel cars). He had me covered by over 5 seconds to give you an idea. Him hitting the rev-limiter is 72-73mph.......which he does several times per run.

This thing is so fast it makes people actually ill from riding shotgun.

Nope, going to get up, head to Ledos to over see the breakfast rush, then maybe head out to lunch, do some shopping with the wife, come back home, wash the Z while linh plays in the garden, when I'm done we'll go running or do something together then off to dinner or we'll cook dinner. Then maybe a movie and if Linhs lucky I'll get frisky.

So let me get this straight. You never had any firsthand experience with FT yet you posted negative feedback and you find it logical to shame them?

You formed YOUR "Opinion" base off what someone else said and NOT firsthand experience. I'd even go so far as to guess that you don't even have any personal involvement with either party whatsoever other that what you've read on the interweb (meaning your not any close relation, friends, family, g@y lover, etc...). So basically you've formed your opinion based off information from unknown and possibly unreliable sources? 
Then you post "your opinion" on a totally unrelated thread expecting nothing? What? You didn't expect to stir up a bee's nest did you? I bet you were hoping that the entire MY350Z world would rise up and pay homage to you for presenting us with you infallible "opinion" right? You're the only person in the world that can guide all us stupid people into thinking just like you. I'm my opinion (NOT!) you must be a God or something (= dumb a$$) since you seem to know so much about everything without ever having to experience anything. 
You are entitled to form an opinion but most intelligent people know when they should keep their opinions to themselves. Even young children know this DUH! Guess that make you dumber than a 2nd grader.
As far as me "needing to get my head straight"?
I don't need or take advice from a parrot that only know how to repeat what it's heard and knows nothing of what it's talking about.
Another thing about "OPINIONS"... Opinion are like a$$holes, everybody's got one and most of them are full of ****. I personally suggest you wake up and smell what you're shoveling.
Welcome to the forum noob! You're gonna to love it here.

Someone's on her way back home to daddy:
Sadly the can isn't coming with. Sadface.
Oh well. Smith says it shoots leaps and bounds better with this barrel than it did with the last. He slugged it and for some reason the previous .308 barrel was actually around .310-.311, which explains the poor accuracy.
Soooooooooo ready to get back down to Quantico.

LOLBesides the Leupold MK4 are only another $1000-$1800 (depending) so it's really nothing but pennys compaired to a house. < WARNING! Use this argument and you might be killed by spouse.

Today I had the car out again for awhile. For more pointless drives to nowhere =)
Some guy on one of the Severn backroads gave me a thumbs up lol. I also let Linh drive it.
Checked all vac lines, cleaned up a few things in the engine bay, Dumped out my catch can. made a new bracket for my front bumper cover for added support. washed it. and put it back up.
I realllly wanted to play with an M5 on 97 but there was way too much traffic =(
