| I'm not bashing you or anything you have done. I am very interested to see where this thing goes, and I hope that it does well. That being said, you have the knowledge, time, connections, support, and money that you need to conduct this R&D. I for one applaud your efforts, sincerely. But 98% of the people here DON'T have the resources that you do. Therefore, a lot of them are relying on you for the info and data that they are looking for, and that is fine. I am in that same boat as far as the Zem is concerned. I also am glad when you post the results, especially when they show progress and good numbers. The problem lies with people like ZenthuZiast. I can understand his excitement. However, he is not doing anything to help the cause. He has no idea what has gone on behind the scenes to make what you guys did possible. He merely sees the results and all of a sudden gets dyno sheets in his eyes and he can't contain himself. I don't see the post he made as being supportive to you guys. You're going to do what you're going to do wether he backs you or not. The thing is, he is giving people false hope by making them think that this is a cheap, simple mod, which it is not. What happens then is that when everything is said and done, and you guys have made a successful 'kit' or whatever, these clowns are gonna start crying because it costs WAY more than they were expecting. A lot of NA owners don't consider the costs of a lot of the things the TT guys do. They don't have to. So a lot of this will be sticker shock to them. My point is this, I'm not bashing your's or Z1's work at all. I very much support the effort and am looking forward to success for you guys. I am against the posts like this because I don't want to see dissapointed people later on, for whatever reason. If you guys can SC or turbo the NA for $2K out the door, by all means do it. Prove us all wrong. And when it's all said and done, I will applaud you. But I am not about to stand by while these people wait for the pie in the sky for $6.52. And I, in no way, hold you responsible for this. You posted good results and that what we expected from you guys. I blame the people that take what they want to hear and run with it without considering all the factors involved.
