You're not a snake "now", you've been one for some time.
I honestly didn't remember you being at that lunch with Paul, Rick and I, sorry about that... it was a couple years ago.

I stand by any comments or recommendations I ever made based on any logs. Tuners have very differing opinions of what's safe or dangerous and I like to be cautious especially when there is clearly knock present and/or a/f ratios are too lean. I was not just telling you this for my own gains as I actually had no interest in retuning any of these cars. I don't like to take liability for an engine that had been running a dangerous tune in the past. If you'll note, I also told some people their tunes were fine (from the same tuner). I never BS, I tell people straight up what I believe to be true. Others may have different opinions. BTW, I've never used the words "ticking time bomb". The Subaru ECU's are advanced enough to keep a motor running for quite some time even with a shitty tune.

Anyway... I know you have this opinion based on this crap from a couple years ago. That's perfectly fine by me... my business never depended on the Sacramento crowd. Even when I was tuning out of Davis the majority of my customers were coming in from the Bay Area. There is just no good reason for you to keep bringing this kind of stuff back and mucking up otherwise informative and useful threads.

On that note I will cease to post anything here that's not related to the original techincal discussion. I urge the moderator/owner to strip out this useless junk as the rest of the thread has some great info.

Thanks
-- Ed

Default What the F***

I don't understand.. why is there so much BS being said! I understand I only have half the story but, I don't believe there's a reason to just start a thread to talk shit about someone! I think it's childish and a waste of your breathe to do it!

Well, the the perception (based on real-life incidents) is that people were wronged. People are free to express their opinions, and this opinion is based solely on real world interaction with Ed. It is what it is.


ps, even though the sac people are angry, I still like them

Nuttin' but love, hoss

Also, this thread wasn't started, it was split out of another discussion. I'm glad your experience with Ed has been positive; not everyone feels the same way, but hey, that's free speech.

I'm not saying they are bad people at all, People have their opinions... I don't know them and can't say " that persons an idiot and not to listen to them" but there are always good and bad things said about people!
