Zach, I am not trying to start a pissing contest, and I am sure i wouldn't lose. But that's beside the point. All I was saying is we don't need this turning into a for sale thread for your services. That's all. And I know Joe isn't completely satisfied, but whatever you do to reconcile that, is between you and him, I just wanted to make sure nothing gets started in here. I just want this not to turn into a random for sale thread for services, goods, or whatever.

If need be, we should start another thread, a for sale thread or anything.

Oh, and about you getting defensive about when I started tuning... how bout your PM telling me not to walk on your business and that I shouldn't tune in Illinois? I'm not here to start a pissing match, I am here to get to know these guys, and as one of the original 3 people here, I think I have a right to say what I have said.

well if you still wanna be a part of this let me know.

zach and matt.......take it to pms. zach i understand what hes saying.....and im not burning a bridge between you and i but you have already stated both here and at the meeting that you tune and will offer your tunes at a discount rate for club members. thats fine and all but i dont see a need for it 100x's. eventually on our website just post up your services with our sponsor or vendor section. hopefulley business comes out of that for you. im not saying either of you are bad tuners or are better then another but im putting an end tot his before it gets out of control.

sorry to either of you if i sound like a complete dick head and any kind of offense is taken from this but i really would atleast like one thread on this board that doesnt turn into a pissing mitch. one of you has spilled the gas, the other has the matches so dont lite the fire before it gets out of control.

I agree with boosted if your going to argue take it to PMs I hate bullshit like that. Yes Zach posted a discount price twice ok he made his point and that is all. Mkreibs your post was unecessary if you wanted to inform him of your opinion like such, use PMs. There is no need to start bad mouthing each other we're in the same club if you can't get along IMO GTFO.

On a lighter side hooters in schaumburg sounds good for a permanent place seeing it's closer to the middle for the northern guys closer to WI border and southern chicago. Then we could have another smaller meet more north and another more south. This way the main meet is more accessible for everyone and if you can't make it to the main meet you can go to the smaller meet that is closer. Just my opinion.

If I had a problem with a tune or thought i did he had no problem coming to help and fix my issues with no charge. While trifecta the tunes YOUR SELLING tuned my car with a **** tune and when I told him my car was not running right and he kept telling me everything looked fine. I finally said I would like a refund if even just a partial so that I could get a proper tune he refused. Thank you for stealing my money trifecta.

Now please enough take the arguments to PMs

You Blew you dipstick out. press your dipstick back down, and get a new intake manifold gasket from Tom. They changed the design of the gasket to prevent it from happening anymore. This happened to me.

^^^ Zachs tune...... OH FOR A LNF!!!! Really? i dont know how he is with the lsj's bluebolt but from my standpoint i m not happy. i dont even WANT a retune. Yes i was happy with the tune for the first few months because hey i was in a faster car. then i installed my interceptors and saw my a/f at 11.9. Rich Much? Then i noticed morre and more how weak it was at the top end. "zach this is what i dynod" thats what i said to him... you all want to know what he said to me? THATS NOT A REAL DYNO.... My point is let orther people chime in on the tuning front Zach is not the greatest by far and im sure several others agree with me.

Oh and i forgot to ask how much does the GM Stage one put out??

Looking forward to this. Are you going to have the dyno there again? I don't know how accurate the one was last year, but it was still fun to watch.
