In order to clarify this again, I cannot quote the pm message exactly but you asked to keep you posted regarding some of our products.
The words "keep me posted" usually means to me as the product becomes available please inform me of the details.
If you want tuning then we will have to start a new thread about the subject and your exact questions regarding tuning. This is just for clarification...no pun intended

...please delete my PM...you won't be needing it
Fun stuff.
Sort of, but not really. Rings and pistons on #4 are most apt to blow/melt in response to higher temperature and/or boost. Also it's at the end of the fuel rail...might have something to do with it. I thought you guys would know of this, pushing the limits with your engineering and all.


) can get you in excess of 50hp for around $3k...I've already done the cost/benefit in my mind, and I can see this product (W2A) is not for me. Nothing against chasing the extra percentage of a percent though. Not disagreeing at all with you Jiminni, just clarifying I suppose. "Expensive" is a relative proposition...using the above figures, 50hp for 3k is only around $60 a horsepower, putting it way below the per horsepower costs of most intakes, ignition setups, intercoolers, and the like. That may be a better way to judge things, beyond only absolute costs.

/\ old address for Gintani (they just moved). if so, this is a good read - click
perhaps the logical answer is that they shared the same space but were separate companies. tough for any business if the roommate has a bad rep. :dunno:

I don't plan on turning into a hit-piece like Hornguys though, so I don't know what to make of it honestly.:impatient

well, a well respected local shop (a MINI vendor here even) just moved out from a shared space where things went sour with the other shop. It happens. Just want to be clear if these are separate companies, unrelated beyond sharing expensive SoCal real estate
Just me doing my homework.

Do a search on my posts and it's #1, mentioning her screen name. She's a MINI owner too and I <gasp> let her out of the kitchen once in awhile to post. Shocker I know, we live in the same house, use the same static IP. Cookie for you!
