well im gonna stay out of this for the most part,,,, but seeing as how yall are arguing over my specific situation, i feel i got to jump in here!! there really is two sides of this!!

e is correct,,, for the most part!! the biggest reason my maf is jacked is because the jack ass that i bought it from,,,,,, (not on this site!!!),,,,,,,, jerry rigged the mafia, and told me that itd be more than suitable and it was what he was running with no problems and blah blah blah!!! but the fact is that the maf doesnt belong on that car,,, its a slot maf from a s197,,, and i know that but he convinced me that it would work more than well enough!! so i installed it on my car just as he installed it on his car!! and it definately didnt work!!!

with that being said,,, dante didnt ever once give me a reason that either wasnt working or for a fact say that either wasnt working,,,, he said something more to the affect of,,,,,,,aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh wwwweeeeelllll,,,,,,,, aaaaaaahhhhhhh i think, its mmmmmmmmaaaaaaayyyybbbbbbbeeee this or that!!!! it could be this it could be that it could be this it could be that!!!! but reguardless were getting sh*itty signals from the maf,,, i couldnt get him to tell me what exactly the problem was. now whether that was because he didnt know or didnt want to be wrong, or didnt quite understand what i was trying to ask, i dont know!!! but in the end he said get rid of that thing and get something like,,,, this!!! and thats what im doing!!! and i cant say that i dont agree with him!! how that diablo is set up is prty crappy and reguardless it needs to go!!! and well see from there!!!

id also like to say while im here,,,, while i was at dantes he was more than forgiving of the problems that i had with my car,,, and worked on what he could to get it ironed out!! its not his fault nor is there any reason to put up a negative strike against him for my misfortune with the maf or the valve cover gaskets,,,,,, god those things are biatches!!!!! or most of all the bad luck with the ass hole that sold me a completely F*U*C*K*E*D up tuner in the end the problems are mine,,,, and hes only doing what he can in his power to assist me in getting my cobra on the road!!! thanks for listening to the rant!!!! im done now!!!

Then why is it that when I posted where I was going for a tune and how much it was I got a nasty gram PM that said "no free advertising"?

Bobby, I don't know who sent you the PM but, what I mean about free advertising is this:

OK Example:
I got my car tuned at XYZ shop they did a great job at a good price. I recommend them.

Free Advertising Example:
I got my car tuned at www.XYZshop.com for $230 goto 2300 East Palamor St.. 619-555-5555

Ears I hope you did not think this was only about you. Because it is actually about someoneelse. But, I am glad you provided the specific details and experience you had with DMP.

i stopped by dantes today to have him look at my shreaded belt and he caught something that no one else would have caught, one of the ribbed pullies that should have been replaced with a flat pulley was the reason why i shredded the belt, im not gonna throw names out but this person didn't follow the directions when they did the install a year ago... but i pulled the blower today and put right pulley in and bolted the blower back in, should be finished tomorrow sometime....

I am building this site for a future project just not enough time to get it going. It was going to be a central location for members to find a tuner in there area. With Reviews and such...

Not to sound like I am just jumping on the bandwagon, but, I can't say enough good things about Dante, I took my dad's truck in there, to get a new part installed, and when he was testing it, he noticed that the water pump to the intercooler was'nt working, I'm so glad that he caught this, because I would've been on it as soon as I got out of there, So I got another one from him, he didn't even charge me to install it. I don't think that there would be anywhere else I would go.

There's no doubt that he's a class act and goes out of his way to make things right. All I'm saying is that if you guys want to go fast I'd look elsewhere. If you want your "conservative tune" and say there's nothing wrong with that, then don't cry that your car is slow. Keep throwing money at it to make it faster then go get a conservative tune. That's the dumbest **** I've ever heard.

If you want conservative don't mod your car like Gibs.... lol!

Yea, Well I normally have never let anyone work on my car, but I'v been in Class till 5pm every day, and the Hobbie SHop on base closed by the time i get out, and I got no place to work on my car..so i was having him install injectors so he could finish tunning it.
