Actually their prices on Gibson headers are amoung the most expensive i've found. That is unless they have lowered their prices since last week.

I asked this same question on Moparchat but somehow the post was removed. What's the deal with this "package"

•IP Z-Tube Stage III 7" Powerstack Intake
•F&B 70mm Throttle Body
•Gibson Chrome Headers
•MSD Ignition & SS Blaster Coil
•HP Gain: 25-30
•Price: $1150

I'd love you to show us how you put an MSD Ign. and Blaster coil on a 4.7
And, doesn't that seem like an excessive amount of money for 25 - 30hp?

yeah your site looks like one of them "my uncle's cousin knows WEB DESIGN" Ever wonder why summit and jegs aren't public? odd.. considering they own the market right .. riiiiiiiight. the thing is there is always another that will consider .5 a legit margin. HEY you do have a GREAT domain name though man! v8performance.com < mmmm I'd eat that up and start billing in weeks heh.

Your silly man, your never going to be able to compete on a part for part basis... seriously! remember today when you told me "Look here is how it is...blah blah ryan it's mike" krc can put a mopar pcm vin flashed in my hands for 285... you cant do that because you CANT .. your not there yet know what I mean?

So first figit says Ryan is helpful and he would "kick some money his way for sure." Now he's slamming him because he isn't one of the "big" companies. Sounds real good dosen't it?

Well according to KRC's website a mopar pcm is $330. Then if you want to have it flashed its another $30. That would be $360 for a flashed PCM. Mine are $340 flashed so how are they more expensive?

I couldn't believe how much of an a$$ this Mike Ellan (aka figitdotcom) sounded like, so I actually wasted some of my idle time to click on his name and check out his website.

What a joke. He actually has this in his resume: "I'm a people person with great communication skills who loves to teach and share knowledge with others." LOL

Fear the mullet! LOL

Just to say, I emailed Ryan a couple times about purchases and I got pretty quick replies. I ordered an intake ......part of the group buy he was holding and so far everything has been great. Once I get it then ill be able to comment more on speed of shipping/packing/what not. I thought it was cool to see someone small trying to get some people to visit/purchase and hook us up with some good deals. Chris Allen

ey guys sorry for being a prick man, ryan's cool and his rate are super fair. KRC can do the pcm w/ vin flashed for 305 + shipping, I was offended because I thought you were lying to me earlier that day about your cost for the pcm but that's no excuse for me to bash you or your site so sorry ryan. Dakman, I invite you to show me a nicer self-promo online portfolio.

hmmm...figit...I don't normally surf the internet looking for the best "self-promo online portfolios", matter of fact...yours is the first I've ever seen, so I guess you win that award.

Glad to see you finally woke up and realized that coming on here and acting like a "prick", and having a link to your company web page probably wasn't in your best interests. I've allready added links to this thread on several other message boards (not truck related) showing people just how stupid some people can be. Now thousands upon thousands of people of people with an array of interests can see your true colors shining through.

Dakman what your referring too is link propagation which is about the oldest form of generating traffic/hits. If you really wanted this thread to generate some views just respond with popular keywords/key strings like "Windows XP serial number" ... or "The best supercharger" etc.. get the idea? That way search engines will class this post as relevant to those searching for these popular strings, hope that helps in your future meddling heh.

My site does not showcase a company that I own, just serves as a spot to promote freelance work. Anyhow, I have nothing to hide man. Correct, I was being a prick and I apologized for it but I could care less if any current or potential client of mine read what I said heh.. what are they going to pull work because of what I said on a thread? hardly...

Figit; Your not getting it man. I realize that by me linking this to other boards that I probably wasn't going to cost you any current or future work. That wasn't the point or my intention. I made the links and discussed you with other people BEFORE you apologized. The point was to show some other people I know, how much of a "prick" you were being. That and how stupid we thought you were to act this way, tell your real name, and have a link to your site that promotes your work. I mean you seem like your pretty computer/internet savy, but you didn't even add the link to your site in your sig until you decided to attack the way his web design looked. It's not in your first two posts where you acted civil. What were you thinking..."think I'll wait until I start acting a fool before I let everyone know who I am and what I do for a living." LOL Not very professional. We all got a big laugh out of it, that's all.

Anyhow, like I said earlier, I'm glad you realized it wasn't in your best interest to act the way you have been, and decided to apologize. I'm sure Ryan appreciates it.

It's all good man, I modified my sig earlier in the day. I got tired of saying "so yeah I have a 00' R/T cc so my question is...etc." but I do like the wild a$$ default pic so I kept that heh. I know what you mean about posting my name etc, but I'm not one of those types of people that will come here and voice my opinion under a different name like hundreds others. If I was concerned I would have used "dakman" or something know what I mean. I feel that I was wrong for talking $hit and apologized, end of story. People may remember "oh man that dude mike can be a prick" but at least I posted my opinions at the time while logged in as ME, then as ME I came back with my tail between my legs and apologized. What I said wasn't cool at all, but I don't consider it stupid to post using my real name etc. that was just how I felt man, we all have days when our attitudes suck know what I mean.
