Where's the admin? Someone close this thread down, it's stinking up the forum.

BTW, theonlygreat, I really loved it when u said "For christ sake quit posting on a thread that is already over and done with. That is unless you have some good information about a turbo kit for an N/A. Which you don't, because they don't exist anymore." Classic.

You're a jerk. It's just as easy to be a dick with ten posts as it is with a thousand. Post count means nothing if you ask questions and deal with people in a respectfull manner people are willing to deal with you that way. The fact you pissed some people off should open your eyes to the way you relate with people. But I figure there is little hope of that, most jerks doddle through their life completely oblivous.

so all we had to do is tell you we called greddy? i'm not discounting 1fastTII, but it's easy to type that in and bullshit you, but you believed it. man, you asked if the kit would not work for a n/a, we told you the truth. you wanted us to back up our information, there shouldn't be a need to. if you're 20 years old, as someone mentioned before, you should be man enough to pick up your lazy fingers and type in the url for greddy's website. and, instead of YOU spending YOUR money on a long distance call for information YOU need, YOU ask US to pay for you? **** that. quit being a little bitch.

your better half? god, i can't wait to see how stupid and inconsiderate your other half is.

I called GReddy yesterday and they said it DOES infact come with a computer and manifold, and would bolt up to an N/A with very little tinkering.

ive got a list for you. they are all groups of 2 words, all of which you dont have and need to aquire.

1. forum etiquette
2. people skills
3. common sense
4. general courtesy


how do you expect anyone to answer to any of your threads in the future if you act so.. (for lack of a better word) stupid?

actually all 1fast said was that everyone else was right.

next time follow proper posting procedure

1a. remove head from ***

AND/OR

1b. foot from mouth

AND

2. appreciate the fact people were trying to not only explain that the GReddy kit wasn't for a N/A, but also make sure that you knew the higher compression motor can't handle that much boost to begin with.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.



PS - were you aware that you can't run too much boost on an N/A motor?

Wow, this thread sure exploded in a hurry.
Ok, this guy seems do be completely missing the point of why he pissed everyone off.
I personally now think you are a complete monkey, from what you replied to me in the fist couple posts!
I gave you an answer.

I guess I don't know what I'm talking about... I *MIGHT* have actually installed my OWN turbo kit on my OWN car.. but I might not have, since that's just my own OPINION.

Here's another opinion:
Me=Lots of experience, knowledge, hands on experience, and willing to take time to answer questions.
You=Moron

If some punk went "blah blah blah" to my face when I was trying to answer a question, he'd have a broken nose and a few teeth that would be missing untill he crapped them out the next day.

Wait a second--you're thanking him?? But WHY?? He didn't offer the RESOURCES for this info!


Look man--you shouldnt get your panties in a knot over resources. If you wanted resources, pick up the phone and call Greddy. You wanted info, and the people in here have tons of it. You asked a question, and people answered it. If you need resources, go read a book report. If you don't want to use this forum for its purposes, then get lost. Otherwise, like I tell others, dont ask the damn question if you dont want the answer. The answers that came from those who "didnt know what they were talking about" just happened to be the SAME as the one you accepted. Go get a clue--even if you hafta steal one from the honduh owners....seems like their cars aren't then only things faster than you

I also called Greddy. They told me that theonlygreat was a jerk. It came from e resource, so therefore its not an opinion and MUST be true.

not to mention that someone suggested one of the best resources you have--the fact that one of the members here has done this upgrade himself and is always willing to answer ??'s.....but thats ok man

just remember this when you ask another question in the future and no one wants to give you any replies. hey--I know!! You can just call Greddy!!!!

Hmm, it's really unfortunate this thread turned into what it did. After I read the first post, I was ready to give step by step instructions to putting that turbo upgrade on an NA. But now I see that it's just pointless...

And people wonder why I hardly post anymore...

This whole threrad would have been ended if the original poster read the title on that page he linked:

Turbo Kits/Upgrades> Greddy

Hey... hint hint "Upgrades" not turbo kit.

Either way this thread has gone way too long with the BS.
