By the way XS Engineering is one of the largest tuning companies and aftermarket parts manufacturers in the US

They produce components that directly compete with APEXI

 

They produce components that directly compete with all of the other tuning cr@p sold on Ebay.

NOT XS POWER, they are the Chinese Knock off brand that produces all of the crap manifolds and shit

 

XS ENGINEERING has tried to take legal action against them to no avail

Ran your 10 yet? :eyebrows:

 

Surely the aftermarket chassis bracing would help with that?!? ;)

 

 

 

Don't you mean upon himself?!? :taped:

 

No not yet, I haven't been on the strip, altough you still haven't grasped the idea that I was playing when you when I said that :wacko: But feel free to keep using the same old stuff.. over.. and over.. and over... and...

 

I suppose we can't all have a high stall and pretend we've made our cars megar amazing on top of a few hundred quid :)

 

If you're refering to the Do-luck floor pan brace then yeah I quess it would help.

 

When I'm as much of an idiot as you, I'll worry about my English.

IBTL I fear, unless we can pull this one back on topic.

 

GMan: The experiments you've conducted are beyond my understanding on a Wednesday afternoon (my fault, not yours :)). I'm sure no-one is trying to discredit what you've said without reason. What they do want is for any engineering claims to be backed up by robust engineering experiments. If/Where there are gaps in the logic, then these gaps will naturally be questioned.

 

If you can fill in the gaps, then I reckon people will come around to your way of thinking.

I thought most people took these figures with a pinch of salt...

 

And that the only thing you could hope to accurately measure on a hub* dyno was the RHHP.

 

*as it's non slip

 

 

Everything else is up for debate unless you do a RHHP test and then rip the engine out and stick it on a dyno. With the differences being the amount a loss...

 

Where's the argument?

 

Without any particular threads linked to I'd assume you were just doing a "Look at me" thread "I iz well brainy innit".

It was only what, 2 years ago now - what seems to be the problem? Can't you get your 3 cars to run in a straight line together for long enough? :blink:

 

I suppose we can't all have a high stall and pretend we've made our cars megar amazing on top of a few hundred quid :)

 

Where exactly did I do that? :search: Jealous much? At least my car was proven, regardless of how little effort you think went into it.

No no no no.... I was referring to the pics showing the extra bracing your supposed facelift needed to join it to the non facelift cars with enough strength to stop it coming apart when you accelerate:

It actually angers me that you aren't fully disclosing this on your for sale thread given that you will be endangering someone elses life if they should drive this car IMO. I'm tempted to report your car to VOSA for a full inspection...

 

.....a complete rear end from the B posts back. No aero roof fixings in the boot Matt? That'l be because your car is actually, 2 cars, welded together. Enjoy it.

You know, I wasn't going to ban you for that but have infracted you. It would seem you've now automatically earned a break from the forum for your recurring antics given you had outstanding infraction points. Points mean prizes, in your case a break from the forum to think about whether you really want to be part of this club or would prefer a more permanent break.

:Popcorn: Don't mind me.

 

Never do, old bean. Budge up a bit. :)

 

:hide::Popcorn:

 

(By the way - check out Lich King - 'Attack of the Wrath of the War of the Death of the Strike of the Sword of the Blood of the Beast' for some awfully cheesy thrash :))

:shock:

 

completely forgot that Matt's car is infact 2 cars mated together....surprised that it hasnt been pointed out on his for sale thread. irrelevant now anyway.

 

As for this thread - pointless to say the least.
