Doesnt al do all of the evo tuning out of your shop ? I know you run a haltech in your " 11.2 shop race car " It seems you are a big advocate of knock control. Maybe you think about putting an aem in you shop car and using knock control ?? any thoughts on this

i never blew up my drivetrain....my transfer case failed because of a mistake made at the dealer when changing the fluid. They never put the fill plug on the TC...and a month later....it was whining like hell...since then the TC was replaced and i blew my clutch.....like many other people who race. When i started my thread about the Exedy clutch....IT WAS DIRECTED AT EXEDY...i think that was pretty obvious when you read the title "Exedy twin disc sucks my white a$$" so in all honesty....i knew exactly what i was doing. With this post, You aparantly did not.
next thing.....i haven't made a single comment about you other than an opinion based on your situation...there were no low blows, no insults...i have simply stated that i believe that you should have gone to Mark first.....like i said before...i do remember you...and i have no problem with you. hence...if you read my previous post...you will hopefully realize that there was no hostility....just an opinion on your situation.
i am only going to say this once...and i mean no harm by it....just soak it in for a second.
If you really think that your original post was not going to cause what it has on this board.....based on all of your experience on this board and among others.....you must be a blind man....because you of all people know exactly what happens when the people of this board smell a drop of blood....

Apologies are due on my behalf and that I do........SORRY DUDE!!!
I apologize....I brought the point of your past posts because I have found them to be quite informative and helpful and thats what this forum is supposed to be. You as well as myself and others have been through several nightmares and have posted with the intention of helping others prevent the same scenario.........
So with that said........Besides my apology, I also owe you a
or two
