Everyone probably has an opinion on this crappy situation; but, nobody knows exactly what went on here but Sal and Rob. All the speculation and commentation is getting old quick. It's sad that the same people always seem to rise to the occasion when there's some mud to be slung around.

Apologies have been made and the issue should be dropped. The only thing that has been accomplished here is that there are now some hard feelings between friends and neighbors; and, some pr!cks got a little play time. Rob, if you're reading this, I regret commenting on the situation. I trust Sal implicitly with my truck; but, I can see myself being frustrated in your place. How you got there is between you and Sal. I wish it could have stayed that way.

Dude...quit with the ego tripping. Get out a calender...or better yet..do a search on this very forum.

Call me an a-hole if ya want. Hell...I am an a-hole. I will spit reality in your face every chance I get. Then I will buy you a fricking cold beer and spend hours with you laughing at stupid jokes.

Good Luck Rob...Like I said before, I still don't think you deserve to be crapped on by your buddies. But that doesn't mean I want to be your buddy .

Rocks

Ron, your not an a-hole as far as you know!

Outsiders viewpoint

Never once in all the posts from either Rob or Sal did I ever read anything to the effect that they were going to lower the boost and see how the plugs took it and then move on from there.

Maybe you guys were all caught up in dyno numbers?

Sometimes you need to take one step back to take two steps forward.
Shoulda coulda woulda, but in the end Rob will still have his truck, but not his money. If ya did it at cost Sal, I could understand,but you made something on the deal didnt ya?

Sorry, but all I heard was Blame Blame Blame Blame Blame.........

Not that I want to rehash this all again, but we tried everything but the kitchen sink. Low boost, high boost, timing from 12 degres to 18 degrees, A/F from 11.5 to 12.3, and every other imaginable thing we could think of. Stories from other "MP related" people ranged from "you have to run low boost" to "you have to spin the hell out of it". I think the only thing we didn't try, was dropping the boost to almost non-existant levels (like using a 4lb lower) because that just didn't make any sense. The truck lost like 20hp just going from the 2.7 upper to the 3.0.

I decided to reply to this and atleast off how I feel because i have been on both ends of a deal it this.On one hand you have a customer how want to try this and you don't have a clue as to how well it will workbut in theory IT SHOULD.And I have been on the end of basicly saying I can do this much lets see if we can get this out of it!and again sometimes it works and some times it does not.BUT if it does look at the amount of potential customers that you could gain from this!I have seen posts saying you only need these few items to get into the low 12 or high 11's.and no one can say that if all they needed to install was a fe bolt ons to get into the 11's that they would not do just that amount.
What I am trying to say [and feel] is it was a 'if this works we will be helping the ENTIRE lightning comunity out showing that all you need is to do this'So in ways they both were trying to help everyone out not just them selves and yes Sal would of benefited the most but rov would get the credit for having the gut to try it and make it work first!Stan
