i don't reply much on here, and there really is no particular reason. I have heard positive things about both sites, as well as negative things. CEG/FCO. i really honestly don't understand the "beef" the two sites have with each other. but if i had to take a guess, people say a little too much. now i have no problem with either site. i am the owner of the white car. from fco. maybe what we could do, and i don't even know if you are interested, but we could actually talk to these people before we say things out of ignorance about each other. i read both sites, and i can say that i have never seen someones name actually used on fco. on ceg i see it repeatedly. i just wish someone would ask me about my car before they use my name on here as if i am trying to withhold info. and on a more personal level, i am friends with dom. and i don't know how people can seem pleasant on fco, then come here and say things about him or terry. i just think that everyone would benefit from a combination of info rather than a combination of insults.

Are you Spike?
Doesn't matter. There are no insults being used here, be sure you let Terry and Dom know that since if they 'Think' I insulted them they probably won't let me back on. Also, if they think I was insulting anyone, then let them know I have/had no intention of it. I or Kinger said the Same things over there. I'm just frustrated that we hashed all that out about the 3L hybrid stuff and then here's this new post about how it doesn't work, and yet we've done reasonably extensive testing as far as a car enthusiast group can do of these modifications.
Don't you see any point to that? That is why I posted my take on FCO about it. Dom has always been pleasant to me and I appreciate that and Terry as always is a wealth of knowledge and funny guy.
Don't misinterpret these posts here as anything CEG did/said, its what I, Tom said! And, I feel no shame in that since I said what was on my mind.

Oh, and by the way, will you post up the mod list for the white car and then give any dyno/tuning results you have done to it please? I think it will fill in a necessary gap in the sort of picture that I have of the various engine/manifold packages that can be used especially since its a first of its kind setup.

i actually just started my job since i just graduated from college. so i will finally have the money to perform the final mods to what is already a great car. dom and i have a few ideas of what we are going to do. the truth is, i haven't had the money to get it dynoed yet. that thing has never been dynoed. it sucks cramming the pedal to the floor and having no idea how much power you have, but i will certainly post when i get it done, i apologize for the missinterpretation of your post.

Why won't Doc tell us the mods on the hybrid they are working on. Has there ever been a dyno sheet for it? 229fwhp without FI seems like BS to me unless they can prove it. I PMed him asking his mods list and he didn't respond. I'm sure he knows how to use his PM's being a Admin and all  .
Car is still running cooler then ever. No drivability issues at all. I got some new O2's to get rid of the CEL and I'll put them in when it gets back from the body shop.

Doc replied to my pm just a little bit ago. He told me he didn't want to post mod info when it hadn't been dyno tested yet. I must have been mistaken when I thought they had 229fwhp because they han't dynoed the car yet.

I was just wondering if you actually read my post before you went crazy about us lying about the dyno results??

Its running good, for a minute it scared me with a puff of smoke or two, but I seem to have nipped that in the but. I'm golden for now (knocking on wood).
