Now a "buddy" to do your SC?

i dunno who's doing my shipping.

i passed on the Greddy gauges for now......maybe later......i'm just going with the kit as built for the moment. Once we get a better source for larger injectors, i'll think about pushing up the boost with pulleys

pulley buddy and supercharger buddy are the same buddy.

i hate soup

what is the rate
It's UPS same as mine Jim and you will want the guage. It taps into your exhaust and the guage sits in your cabin.

It measures the exhaust heat. These measurements can be called into Mike and this can determine lean or rich conditions and Mike in Maralyns can suggest numbers to try and input into the included Fuel Management.

It's just one guage but you will want it. Tognotti's sells GReddy stuff locally but Mike gave me a great price plus you get his knowledge come tune up time.

What I meant by what is the rate is shop rate for install? I'm going to an ATI Procharger expert but it's a high hourly rate.

I also just ordered one of these to keep the sound Police off of me.

http://www.quicktimeperformance.com/ls1exhaust.htm

Go edit find cut out in your browser. I want electric it's fun ans I have the hole for the switch where my N20 arming was I just need a 3 inch spot to put it.

Street semi stock exhaust, Strip wide open.

Sweet.

Found my brakes too, 4 rotors, 4 calipers, 4 pads and SS line for 1700! It was at Stillen like one nice guy had originally said.

Tell that to someone else mang...

I know how much your Exhaust was to be.

You may always want to warn others in a warning possibe or "alledged" bad vendor thread.

That's over half the cost of the entire brake set.


How did it turn out anyway? That money should be instantly available to you and I am more than happy to help you spend it.

Did I mention I am off tomorow?

Be agressive (yeah I'm still up) power napped

Find out what city they are in and inform them that you are working with B OF A and the local states BBB to have their Visa/Mastercard privileges pulled.

It will be much easier to scare them into crediting you back. They shouldn't have charged your CC for something they don't have and you have been waaaay more patient than I would have been.

I got American Express to yank their privilages from a scumbad dealer so let them know you are seriuos and tell them you are spreading the word.

Slander is verbal statements that cause someone damages

libel is the same but in written form.

The catch for you is that the law says it must be UNTRUE statements, stick to the truth and your first ammendment if they do not assist you when they open today.

Be firm and good luck.

The claim form actually isn't too bad if you have a fax machine to expidite it it just means BOFA will investigate so expect about 3-4 weeks if it goes that route.

Good Luck man, from what you told me they are in the wrong.
They cannot charge a credit card for a product they don't have in stock (and haven't has for waaaay to long.

I will gladly assist you haven had a rough ordeal on this before (I actually beat EBay out of a wrong invoice to my CC, now that was painful and the fax machine expidited it (forms back and forth instantly instead of snail mail.

Power Nap time.

Not much info in your profile there do you even own a Z?

We PM and call all the time.

I don't take orders anyway, just requests. I see you are near MD. Tell Mike I said hi and that you are pissing off his costumers, that ought to go over real good since both Jimmy and I bought our SCers in MD from him.

True Dat!


(Slang Interpration ); I agree 100% sir.

Not much "knitting" going on here in Nor Cal with the Z's.

What happened to our Fireman that made the featured car of the month. Since I escalated out of South Sac I lost touch with him (John and the PP Z.)

As for Daewoo I am sorry if I offended you, and I am sorry that you are forced into using the handle of your monitor at your work because of situations out of control.

I understand it all ;working for a Company that would use those cheap monitors would make me angry and even question my salary!

Let it all out, Big Max can take it, I'm there for you! I will give you 1 point! . The profile was just to try and get you to open up a little more about you and your car nothing more nothing less but I digress everyone is trying to kill me and I am bunkered down waiting for my medication to kick in then all we be OK again.



Peas to all!

Getting blown helps relieve tension I guess.

(SC reference.)

John is laying low- too much big pimpin' ya know He's around, I just talked to him a few days ago.
The problem with the NorCal folks is that were too spread out. Like I said though, let me know when you guys get those SC's bolted up and I'll p[lan a trip up there to watch you guys run.

I've put a halt to my ATI purchase for now.......they need to make some "customer service" improvements before i throw 5 thousand dollars their way...........Mike@Altered is a great guy, and very knowledgeable, but i don't think ATI realizes that a great product isn't everything.......when i start hearing good things about their customer service, instead of all bad things, i will reconsider my purchase

EJ- sorry to hear that. So what are your plans? Continue to run NA? Is Max still getting his?
Edit: Err...I guess so since he has a tracking number.

Yeah mine was shippe out today and the CS issue was addressed from upstairs (I hate when that happens.)

I got a call from both Mike and ATI today they are trying.

I need to clear up a few misconceptions in this thread.

ATI shipped out some units in June they have thousands of orders the place must be HUGE!

I know on the East Coast 3 have been installed and one I know of in particular is being Dynoed as we speak.

EJ just wants me to be the guinee pig and then he will try and come back later and beat my time!

Except I have dedided on what to do with my exhaust and it's perfect and his is stock.

By the time his is ordered and installed I will be on a smaller pulley

Be neat to see a 6MT and an A5T both blown going down the track.

When you come bring a camcorder if you have one. Still shots just don't cut it.

What does a digital one run these days anyway?

Default Back on track......

Okay, i just got off the phone with Mike@Altered, he told me about the conversations he had with ATI upper management........I'm convinced that everything has been addressed, so i'm going ahead as planned.......my kit should ship Friday or Monday .......i can't wait to leave burning tire tracks behind everywhere i go

Side note: i called Mike@Altered at midnight, his time.......this is another reason i'm happy with his service......i think this guy is gonna take pretty good care of us if we have any technical difficulties in the future
