When I saw Mynes marketing touting "CEL free" I thought to myself, self? Did they really do that? What an incredibly bold statement to make. Talk about going out on a limb! Nothing in the after market world is 100%. It's amazing a vendor would claim something like that and it should have sent up some red flags with people. You don't like me saying that? Fine with me. Did I hope Mynes would have problems? No... Am I glad they did, well to be honest kinda.... Claiming a product, any product is 100% especially a new one just being brought to the public, is lunacy. Makes me wonder if they really thought it would be 100% with no failure rate at all. Or if they were just hoping to sell enough before it happened. Only they know for sure...

Choices are good
Many vendors are good, I've never tried chasing anyone away. People have different opinions, it's called life


The use of "fan boy" is obnoxious...

you really aren't very observant but that doesn't surprise me

having stock clutches and stock axles breaking really has a lot to do with the tuning . I think you have your facts confused with last yr as to why cars didn't finish races after the tuning.............. Ask around and find out the REAL answer.................. And don't be butt hurt when you find out........

That's a funny statement coming from someone who has the letters RMW in 5 places in his Sig.

Let's see, I count four places in my signature. What's that? Math whiz right...

Anyway, I'm not sure what your point is. Am I an RMW fan? Yup! Do I love his parts and service? Yup! Are you trying to belittle me or my opinion because I like Jan and his products?

I'm not the one calling anyone out, I haven't belittled you guys yet here you are.. Trying to call "fanboy this, fan boy that" trying to invalidate people.

Keep trying, it's amusing really

you did come across as smirking a bit in your response is all.
And when fans from both sides list all there guys items bolded, fan boy just seems to come to mind. as obnoxious as it may sound. it's here to stay i'm sure.

It's just a question, no need to be obnoxious about it. A quick explanation would have resulted the same efforts as posting that link.

No harm no foul. I wasn't smirking, I was thinking more "matter of factly" than anything when made that statement

I'm not lashing out at you, but it just seems that this pissing contest is getting a little old.
I say let the two companys race each other and get it over with. I know it's been talked about. But it seems nothing ever happens but more bashing.

Personally. If I were a performance vendor and was well known in certain circles I would show up to show off my shops skills. But thats just me im competitive by nature.

Count the boxes because where I went to school that adds up to 5.


If you like his product Great. I'll be the first to admit RMW does make some really nice stuff. But so do a lot of vendors on this site. Even you have M7 and Alta products on your car. I'm surprised Jan let you keep those. See what I find funny is when Jan lies or something doesn't go the way it was said it would its okay or it was "BAD GAS" and everything slides and is forgotten. But if another vendor does you have to bash them until there's nothing left. So please keep it up because it makes me laugh.

I dont think that the OP started it to bash.
Have anyone of you talked to bighowe?
I think that your fanboy comments are out of line and getting kind of rediulous.
I mean its really really annoying.
OP was brining up that not everyones perfect.
Not saying that Mynes had a bad product.
It looks just fine to me. its a tops product.
I dont have one because they were later to the party and i bought mine.
This isent to say i wouldent buy it.
Seriously cant you guys all just get along.
