Come on anyone worth their salt knows theres no substitute for cubic inches, and as a wannabe tuner you should defo know.

People were slagging you off because you came across as a cock, hence my reply about the attitude change.

Not strictly true. When I was into my renaults I got 296bhp out of the 1400cc r5 turbo when everyone else dropped in the 1.9 so it can work both ways.
Im no cock mate just wanted to have a chat you should look at other peoples attitudes Ive met some good lads on here Im not here to make enemies.
Cant understand why people get mardy when someone states they have done something they havnt been able to. Its not a war just chill.:)

theres one of your problems , most people arent bothered and prefer standard engine and durability and bragging so much over several threads about bunging more fuel and air in is hardly impressive even if it might be of interest to a few

You seam to pop up everywhere and stick your nose into everyones buisness I am shure they can speak for themselves and if your not interested dont keep talking to me then as your happy with your standard engine.
No offence meant just seams your giving your opinion for other people.:)
 
Needs 4 sets of fuel saving magnets and it will make 400hp at the wheels
 
See there we go again! James is probably one one the most respected members on this forum and for good reason, he knows what hes talking about.

So apart from being an arrogant, egotistical, semi-literate, self-indulgent, gobby, average spanner jockey who is able to talk bovine excrement for baffle purposes, instead of being able to back up with blinding brilliance with not a single iota of data presented, i think that attm has got off pretty lightly!

I wonder if he is receiving therapy for his condition? :cool::cool:

If you havn't got anything sensible to say don't bother would be my suggestion:)
 
atouchtoomuch, a little advice without trying to be condescending or teaching you to suck eggs ...

Keep a bit quieter for a while. Stop replying to any negativity you feel and instead finish and post links to the website or make it simple with just a Facebook page maybe. You probably aren't running this as a business yet 'cos your inter-personal skills would probably be a little better developed, so an advert selling parts as a sideline shouldn't, I would have thought, be frowned upon, though even that ship might have sailed now. You might be asked by the mods to become a Forum Sponsor to be allowed to sell as that's clearly ("I dont tell people how to tune stuff I sell products that work") been your intention from day 1, so I dunno, their call.

I'd also have thought a more effective strategy on your part would have been to post up pictures of the actual parts and modifications you've made rather than pics of a finished installation .. which shows notalot other than a larger turbo, wastegate and silicon tubing really! You don't need dims and specs, just actual parts for people to get an idea from, but more importantly evidence of the power produced, like actual 'real' test data. Maybe graphs of Dyno runs, flow rates, fuel flow, airflow, from both before and after the mods have been applied.

There really are some very knowledgeable people on here running some seriously cool engines and other kit. ****ing them off isn't a great way of starting a potential business to a potentially large market slice .. 100,000+ members with maybe 2000 active .. ;)

I quote .. "Members: 115,272", Total members that have visited the forum in the last 24 hours: 1,300, Currently Active Users: 790 (124 members and 666 guests)"
OK, the 'active quests' might well be a number of bots, but that's a snapshot of the potential market you have here ... Just a thought or two .. ;)

Hope it helps ... ;)

Thanks for the help I posted photos that show how its done if they look anyone who says they know anything about land rovers should be able to see it is a conversion block manufactured to fit to what they can surely see is a land rover manifold. The rest is common sense. I never have any trouble conversing with people only on here as people hurl abuse at others that seam to have made more progress than themselves. Thanks for your advice though I appreciate it.:)

Hi intersting to say the least got to run over to notts in a mo but will post a reply to you later if thats ok some real interseting stuff there mate nice one,,,,,,,ps manifold is coming shortly probably on my p38 with 300 tdi in I made a conversion block in stainless that does the swap as it was quicker to prove the conversions but my mate makes exhausts for a living so that will come soon if he ever gets time lol :D
