LOL you cant compare driving skills. nobody is the same. a tune is great. but XCAL isnt the only thing out there. it might work for you guys, thats wonderful. congrats. i might even do it, but im sure as hell not gonna just buy a tune and put it in, i'm going to set my own perameters with the PRP, or the XRP like warmonger suggested to me.

I didn't mean comparing driving skills. I meant if you had a twin that was exactly the same as you and drove just like you did, like a mirro image...the tuned car would have an advantage. And if you are interested in the xcal2 and prp, then why did you say in an earlier post that you "really don't care"?

If that is people's mindset on the forums, thats pretty sad. With my posts I wasn't trying to come off like there is no way you can have a fast car, etc. because you only listened to 3-4 people. I am simply saying, there are tons of people on the boards and a lot of them know more than a thing or two, and to ask for advice on something (whatever it may be) and only take 1 persons response as "the way it has to be", your missing out. Not to knock anyone...

I don't think anybody has a problem with you making power. And you don't exactly need a whole bunch of folks' knowledge to just put nitrous on a car, and I don't think anybody really cares if you worship them for that or not.
They just have a problem with your bit of a know it all attitude. Which you really shouldn't have.

for sure i agree. this forum is here for the spread of knowledge. and when i bash other kits i just try to get my point across. if you knew me IRL you would see how i'm really trying to say it and it wouldnt come out the wrong way. i am very biased on nitrous setups though. anything else, i try my BEST to listen

with a regular xcal you only get 3 tunes i hear, no adjustability. you need the extreme racer package to adjust it yourself. it seems like alot of money and some guy you dont know tunes a car he's never seen before, unless you pay for hours of dyno time. it seems expensive. i'm going to see about getting a PRP so i can do everything myself, just like the schmuck tunes yours on the dyno.
Thanks for the lovely PM by the way, really a stand up guy we have on our hands here!  Congrats, you are the first person on here to really piss me off.
OK mister know it all, here is where you are wrong:
First off, I dont give a crap what my dyno sheet looks like compared to yours. You spray, I dont. You win. YAY! If you want to continue bashing me with dyno numbers in PMs feel free.
Second. Xcal is not 0 adjustablitiy. If you had the ability to read you would have noticed in any advertisement that it does have user adjustability. You can even modify tunes that you are given. Above this, 1 vendor (Brenspeed) is more than willing to work with you until you get tunes that WORK. Be it 3 or more. Bottom line: You get 3 result producing tunes! And this isnt the first time this has been posted about Brenspeed.
Third. Some guy you dont know tune your car? How about someone who has experience and knows what their doing tune your car! And it doesnt cost hours of dyno time. If you had a clue what you are doing you would know this. 1-1.5, maybe 2 hours is plenty. Ive done it, I know (and that was datalogging 12+ runs!). Not to mention the experience ADC or Brenspeed has far surpasses "schmuck" status. That statement alone proves your ignorance on the matter.
And I would trust that schmuck (as you say) running the dyno and tuning my car far before I would let an ignorant A hole like you wash my rims!
And before you go sending me another wonderful PM, at least realize WTF you are talking about. You do fill the boards up with nonsense, and this thread is only one example. What you state above is untrue and uneducated. And what makes that bad is that you insist that its the truth without acknowledging the facts.
Until next time

The fact that you're using MSD DIS-4 speaks for itself, you don't need to say anymore   STFU newb, use the search function, read up and try to learn something rather than run your mouth  You contribute nothing but ignorance. Your way is antiquated, step up to the currant level of tuning and you just might get a little more power out of your s%*^box.
