I don't care who built the first motor, FWIW I think Gpower did before anyone else, what matters is who has a Stage 3 that actually works and runs without issues. I'm sorry but Josh's car is not running strong, no dyno's were ever posted, he doesn't even own it anymore and he's moved on. Manifolds? That's completely irrelevant to anything, it's insignificant compared to everything else. There's no double standard, some people just don't like the facts so they distort, mislead and fabricate things and and some are just naive, it's unfortunate.

What kills me the most is the guy that yells ''this is not high school'' and ''all kits are great'' continuously rags and takes shots at ESS kits on other forums.
Thats the reason i can't take you seriously Andrew, it seams you have multiple personality disorder. I'll leave it at that as if i say more It might get removed...

Just joined in as in commenting on this thread? I don't blame Gintani for not posting on this forum. They are human beings who I'm sure would have many choice words for the Internet tough guys that routinely tear down their products. These guys put a lot of work into what they do. I give then mad props for biting their tongues and remaining professional about the whole thing. Just because you so call "document" what you are doing with your ride on an Internet forum doesn't mean that other people have to do the exact same thing just for it to exist. What's the point you say? Idk about you but I've modded all of my cars for me because I enjoy doing it. Back to Josh's car, I do know he took his kit off and I'm not going to pretend to speak on his behalf because he has every right to spend his money as he pleases. Just sucks that people always try to rain on another's parade and there is no arguing that this forum is dominated, dominated by ESS guys. And sure, they are gonna defend their purchase but no need to tell a happy new forum member how you guys THINK your far superior. Did the OP get a little "post happy" and jump the gun a little. Perhaps. Can you blame him though? Having a supercharged M is a blast let alone a built motor one.

For me this thread is a sad and telling example of how insulting and immature people can be to each other when hiding behind the veil of internet anonymity. There is really no reason for any of the mud-slinging that's been going on in this thread... at all.
A lof of people seem to think that Gintani's alleged repeated failure to back up their stage 3 numbers gives them the right to cut into OP, or to talk trash on his kit. A lot of people also seem to think they're entitled to bash OP because he didn't post dyno numbers fast enough? I'm sorry but OP doesn't owe anyone updates. I don't think anyone should allow themselves to feel entitled to rip into another member because we're not having our hunger satiated quickly enough. This is a guy who probably spent a lot of money on his kit, and was probably super happy and wanted to share it with the community. We should be greeting him with a congratulations, not tearing him down for not getting optimal results, or for getting a kit that's not the most popular one. I honestly feel bad for OP. I wonder if any of us would have been so harshly critical of him or the kit, if this is someone we had met face to face at a meet or track event. - esquire

Agreed he jumped the gun but shouldn't get blasted for it, but when we've been waiting for years for #'s some people get a little harsh. Looking forward to seeing his results.

Esquire, I didn't know you were local man, we've been getting car meets together for awhile now. Would love to see a Dakar yellow M out with us. I hear that color in person is amazing!

Lets see exactly what I wrote in the other thread: "One thing maybe some could shed some more light on...I have heard of some issues with the kits without BOVs that the car will actually keep on pulling when in boost but off the throttle? Maybe some guys can chime in to see if this is an isolated incident or exactly what is happening?" There is clearly no hinting here. Just a question about something I have read about. Plain and simple. It's pretty obvious which kit I am referring to and not trying to mask anything. You sure are trying to read deeply into some hidden agendas that I have. It's usually the ones that have these themselves that think everyone else is the same as them. Quote:
