Shiv comment on C&D

Car and Driver Superfour Challenge

Shiv says "The bad news is that there isn't a lot of power to uncork for cheap." Compared to what, Shiv?

lol....."isnt alot of power to uncork for cheap" huh shiv?

Now thats just funny! Now I remember why I dont buy Vishnu products. Their prices are much too expensive to uncork power compared to their competitors who get the job done RIGHT in all aspects, very much including PRICE!

I liked when they finally showed the RMR car and said it was "Rice" Millen Racing... Ummm, C/D, Rhys is pronounced "Reese"...

I also loved the fact that the Comptech car had twice the money in it that the Evo did, the Evo won every event on the track including braking, yet came in 2nd place. Oh well. Let me spend another $40K on my Evo and watch what happens... Come on.

The comptech car is pretty nice but that is a lot of money. Check out www.comptechusa.com I was going to do most of that to my NSX but after adding up 20k I said **** it I am going to get something for the track that can do better for 10k and the evo is just that. There stuff is great but you do pay for it.

I never complained about them making real power......its funny how you fail to read and comprehend what is being posted....

We are talkin about power to price since Shiv's quote was about "uncorking power for cheap".


Get some glasses, and take some english classes. You appear to be lacking in either/or.

I've read WAY too many threads on how everybody is ******* on Shiv. Everybody needs to chill out about Vishnu's prices...if you don't like it or can't afford it...DON'T BUY! STOP *****ING!

EVERY tuner has his own tricks of the trade...so everybody tune differently...no need to hate on ANY individual tuner.

I dont usually talk bad about anyone....but stating something like what was quoted from C&D is pretty rediculous.

whoa, whoa... I was not ******* Shiv. I simply found it... odd. What car can you uncork more % power on, for less money. This had nothing to do with Vishnu's prices.

I ordered the stage 1 in July after about 10 days of having my car. Then after a month of waiting and having no idea when I was going to get it I called, They said they had some exhausts come in I said GREAT, they said that they are no sure who gets what and too call back in a few days, well when I called back it was not me, then after 2-3 WEEKS of calling back they still had no idea. To me this is TOTAL **** and if they can not even keep track of who is getting what when that is NOT a business. I have ordered 10's of thousands worth for 4-5 different cars and they all have an IDEA not just "call back". Price is NOT an issue but if you pay the most should it not be the best? If I called Buschur and after 4-5 calls they said, "I don't know, or Call back in a week” do you think I would do business with them? What if you have a problem or question? Call back? Or if the car is not running right and you get the voice mail that is full so you cannot even leave a message? I called Buschur and Jarrod answered the phone and I had some questions about the AEM and I told him I know Tym is busy and it's no big deal. He went and FOUND Tym on Friday AFTER the drags and I talked with Tym for 30min, and I have never even purchased anything from them. But the company I was trying to purchase from did not give a ****. I got better service from someone who I spent nothing on then the person I tried to spend 2500 with. lol pretty sad. Good luck all of you Vishnu people on getting support or getting parts.

At least he didn't say "The Evo is a piece of **** and I can get more HP out of a Geo Metro by pasting Type R stickers all over it".
