F1 tuning claims 30% hp increase, 40% tq increase, you believe it?

[88slowmarro]

the way i see this is that loveforboost isnt happy with his shit and wanted it right , he had a buyer for the car turn up and is selling it whats wrong with that ? on the other hand i see where this torreto guy comes from wanting to right the situation and not givin the chance to . but i know rob “onebigmofo” and he is a very legit guy " for a mustang homo lol" andthere is no reason to talk about him or him bein on damage controll lolol .

:rofl yeah, I wish I got more pictures of the wiring and other bullshit. Didn’t think of it at the time, was just trying to get through the show.

[GermanPSI]

that thing had like 2in down pipes, oh and didnt you guys spend like 100k on a trans rebuild or something?

[johnnyk]

chinsy ferrari

picture was taking to show others how horrific people can make a ferrari look… oh and how to totally destroy a ferrari engine bay

[Mafdark]

at a glance, this is what I see when I look at that picture:

[GermanPSI]

i wish someone got a pic of the wiring it was SOO BAD

[K20power]

The way a Ferrari engine bay should look if you twin turbo it…

[Mafdark]

still seems like blasphemy to turbo an NA Ferrari. I’d love to see a F40 done up UR style though.

[tpetrolo]

@Singh

i know what the curb wing things are for but lol you think its really necessary ? the car seems to sit around most of the time and goes on the dyno here and there…

yep you cant be burning money, thats no good… you should be putting that money back into the economy

I assure it dose not sit like most of the Ferrari,
I have video on my phone from 3 weeks ago racing on Monticello racetrack driving over 160 on the back straight
Sorry no smoke…

[tpetrolo]

I guess was so ugly but you want to keep a copy for yourself.
If i don"t like usually simply walk away…
but i guess at the concourse elegance they must be crazy to give second place trophy ?

Hey guy from junk1 tuning… welcome to shift & how we do shit round here :rofl

[tpetrolo]

I never asked you to like me. I really do not care if you do or don’t.
Regardless, you said you want to be reimbursed, but in the meanwhile you been selling your car for 3 months now, you found a buyer and got the deposit. So if you had the car for sale, why bother going through all the trouble, time wasted and money to have your car tuned?
You keep contradicting yourself.
I don’t think that any of your statements about the dyno are true. i will not take anything you have to say as being credible unless i see it and prove it for myself, but its evident that you have no intention of showing to me or letting me prove to you the truth.
You could have handled yourself like a mature person and at least had the courage to pick up the phone and contact me directly, instead of posting useless information on this site and stating false statements.
Remember i would have come up there tomorrow in the AM and resolved this. But you refuse. You have made up more excuses than mother goose. Also, seriously, there is no need for foul language and hatred towards me or anyone else at this point. I offered my services, you refused it, end of story!

@love4boost

LOL, im starting to not like you… Like at all… I never said anything negative about your fucking god damn business damn it. Again, even AFTER the bullshit tune motherfucker. Im not making a stink about anything, I did exactly what the fucking Autohaus manager did with the bmw 335 that they did an f1 tune to, the only difference was, my tune results were NEGATIVE! My 540i ran and drove flawlessly and still does. Do you see me going crazy in order to get a refund? lol, I think I mentioned a refund once in this entire thread after at least 4 members suggested I request one and never again after that.

i like to keep all my pictures, isnt that the point of having a camera, to recapture a memory, good or bad.

in this case a memory of a bad car?

Why does it matter if his car is/was for sale or not? The fact that he wanted to do something to it not knowing the timeline in which it would sell is completely up to him, and Im kind of confused as to why you, the producer, would not want him, a consumer, to buy your product, irregardless of his cars sale status. By that logic, unless you plan on keeping a car forever, you shouldnt mod it, b/c youre just going to sell it anyways, so whats the point, right?

Part 2:
How does him not calling you have anything to do with the amount of courage one has? Maybe he’s busy, maybe he just doesnt want to deal with the run-around bullshit that most half-ass shop owners seem to shell out. He, like anyone else is entitled to say whatever he wants on the forum, be it a positive, or in this case negative experience with a “shop”. If you cant take having someone be disappointed with your product from time to time, youre certainly in the worng business, b/c it will happen here and there.
