And to be brutally honest, the lack of capitalization, proper punctuation, and grammar in the OP does not instill the greatest confidence in me. It shows a lack of attention to detail. And when tuning an engine like this for FI, attention to detail is extremely important.
I agree 100% with this.

Thank you for your input, looks like you've never heard about Treadstone Perfomance.
I see what you did there.

Owned! Good luck finding a donor!

I'm not going to get into a pissing contest. If you feel that power modding is the only form of modding, I suspect we won't be conversing much in the future. Good luck with your endeavors.

Looks like you've never dug your own grave in your own thread by flaming potential customers with cheap shots at their cars.

Oh wait.

You sir are a complete goose, If I was your boss I would have fired you yesterday, you have managed to completely tarnish your company's reputation in less than 10 words across the biggest online FRS/BRZ/86 community.

Congratulations.

You could of dug yourself out about 3 posts ago instead you divulged deeper.

No body cares what you have done to STI's in the past, the FA20 is completely different behaving engine, and you say this is not the first car but you cant show us any results to spar some confidence? I would rather give my car to a bunch of monkeys than you. I feel sorry for the company/staff you are representing as they might actually have some skill.

Good luck get a loaner...

Very odd how must hostility there has been with this vendor. I actually purchased several products from them for resale/installation at my old company and have not have one bad experience. Treadstone is a solid company to deal with and I HAVE put my money where my mouth is. /thread

calm down guys

no point in pushing aftermarket companies out of the community

Calum 06-20-2012 03:47 PM
That's funny, but let's give the guy a chance. More vendors is a good thing.

Edit, fook me, two post in the time it took to write mine.

When the first reply to his thread is:

"Are you going to replace the engine when you blow it? Ive heard hear say that greddy and toyota have blown a few engines testing out FI."

I can see how he might get a bit defensive.

This:

and this:

Are completely unnecessary.

To be fair, one of our members instigated the bs with his unprovoked response.

We have an R&D thread going:

1) How long do you anticipate needing the vehicle?

2) What are you planning to use for engine management?
