wow, i guess you haven't been on SL very long... the "haters" don't hate their products, but instead how they conducted their business.

here is one of MANY threads you should read up on.

If he mentioned that the haters were around before all of this, obviously he is no newb to SL.

I think the point we were trying to make was that the ******* of their products was unjustified (except what parts didn't fit, wrong parts shipped, etc.) but that the ******* of the company and business ethics were justified.
Well, except for that knockoff wastegate.
Personally, I still would never run a turbo without a BOV, IC or management, but the kit puts down, that's for sure.

Yeah, I think the whitetrd might have been referring to the unjustified remarks towards the products. At least that's the way I took it.

its not that hard to make power. air + fuel = congrats on being the first zpi stage 0 in the 13's. and good 60' times. just think, if you had done this 4-5 months ago, zpi could have used that vid as a great marketing tool to scam hundreds more people.
