when it is serious dialog meant to educate or try and understand.
I may not be a smart as some people in areas but that doesn't mean I'm not trying to educate others on what they are going thru currently and help them understand what to expect.
its as if you cannot wait for another problem to arise so you can point your finger and say ahh told you so.
I absolutely hate to see it. Whenever I do hear of it, you will notice that I'm always there expressly my sorrow that something has happened to the car.
Please prove me otherwise.
this is not directed at a certain forum member
Yeah right.
I want you all to think back when MB was considered a god to all of you,
I surely did, no doubt. I had never even met the man but was going strictly on reputation when I plopped down the $$$ on his BBSC. Did you??? No, then you can't say anything about that subject.
As a matter of fact, when I first started posting on this board, I even started a thread because I heard somebody locally make a comment about how MB wasn't all that great. I took exception to that and took up for the man, without even knowing him.
when the arrival of the AEM was heaven sent so on and so on
I don't ever recall saying the AEM was 'heaven sent'. I was offered the chance to buy one at a 'special price' that didn't turn out so special after all. Besides, that system isn't quite ready for the NSX from what I have heard. Although I'm sure somebody will be quick to correct me if it has been.
Also, when I bought the kit it didn't say and I wasn't told that the box in charge of timing and such wasn't going to be able to do the job and later on I would have to spend another couple of grand buying one that
MIGHT. Well, if the AEM was so great, why have I been told that the new SS box cures all the problems. When does it end?????
People should be made aware from the very beginning that the kit isn't perfect and you can just bolt it on the car and go. Even after tuning, issues can and do come up. I'm living proof of that.
Conclusion: If you want plug and play and are satisfied with the performance that the CT can deliver - go for it. It is a great kit from a great, professional company
That is put very well and is very accurate.
If you like to tinker (or minimally don't mind it), and you want to have even a higher level of performance, then the BBSC may be good kit for you.
That is exactly would should be stated in the web site also.
The reality is that my BBSC - even with the old SS-box was running just about perfectly -
Despite the fact of what others think, I'm very glad to hear that. I don't wish ill fate on anyone. Heck, I wish I still had mine and it ran properly.
One last note. When my car first broke, I would
occasionally get to speak with MB about the repairs. For the longest time I accepted the fact that I would have to send the car to him to get the repairs. We had even briefly discussed going low compression higher boost with it also. I admittedly was pretty excited about the thought of that. If I had gotten a quicker reponse from anybody associated with getting it taken care off, I was ready to go that route. However when the months began to drag on and on and I realized that if in fact I did have another problem with the car and that it could take this long again, I then decided to remove the BBSC upon repair of the car. I wanted so badly to keep it but couldn't justify it to myself any longer. I guess reality sank in and I was extremely disappointed in the whole thing. Very sad for me.
However, now I couldn't be happier being N/A and I wish nothing but the best of luck to MB in his FI ventures. Honestly.
