It won't get done in a timely manner as he checks and rechecks everything.

Damn perfectionist.


Actually, he does keep telling me he's not going to leave until it's right. Maybe I should call and order another futon...

No futon just have coffe available. Crack da whip no stopping until it's done. If he needs to nap a piece of cardboard on the floor. No more than 15minutes. Once he is done then you can get him a sleeping bag.

LMFAO!!!!

But on the serious side he has built custom parts for some of us in here and has done a good job!

So, Charles, what you're not saying is that Dorkus...sorry, Morkus (dammit, I stooped to their level) doesn't think Moon can do the install. For whatever reason.

I'm in a profession, too, Charles, where nobody thinks another operator can find his *** with both hands and a mirror, and opinions on each other's competence abound. Mostly egos talking, because most of my colleagues are pretty good, but just can't let themselves think somebody else might be equally as good, if not (gasp) better. Frankly, that attitude makes me puke. So does mincing around a subject. I've pointedly asked the question about Moon several times, and so far, Munche has has been the only one to man up with a committed opinion - to the positive.

Moon's gonna do my install. I made a committment and I'm gonna live up to it with him. I was trying to help out Moon as well as other rotorheads in my area by drumming up extra installs for him (which is also $$ in Pettit's pockets) and making his knowledge available to anyone who might want to put a blower on their car; that's all. Hell, I can hack the thing on myself, but I know as well as anyone that experience is worth paying for, and Moon's got it. It's too bad that Mork doesn't understand he's pissing on Moon's parade, not to mention my day. Some people are born that way. Mork is welcome to express his opinion, but that doesn't give him the right to a pass on it. You're obviously a very qualified technician, and I hope to meet you someday, but right now your buds are pissing me off.

At least I assume they're you're buds.

Zenrx8 are you getting the kit with the flash or the Int-x?

Did you go keep your cat, go high flow or race pipe?

I'm going with the flash and a high flow cat, Pettit callsi it the Stage IIb. I already have a Borla CatBack. That'll be enough for now. Can't wait to hear the shriek.

Enough for about a week then you'll want more.lololol

Trust me I am addicted. I added meth.

Which brings me to wondering. The current mix is 50%Methanol 50% water.

What would happen if the 50% that is watter I would mix 50%water 50% water Wetter or purple ice.

Would that help the cooling factor?

Would I damage anything?

And make a nice, bubbly exhaust. All you need is the tuxedo and the cheesy big band.

Maybe we better call Pettit right away; can't have some rogue mechanic out there ******' up the blower installs. I'll call Cam again, I spoke to him yesterday. I'll alert him to the danger. Especially since you're too intent on making backhanded comments and not making substantive contributions.
What prop is that, and how did I "diss it." I said exactly what I mean, and from your perspective there is apparently no need for me to further elaborate. The only thing i've posted in these public forums that may be perceived as negative towards Pettit was when I complained about the price of the flash for customer who've allready installed the kit. That's where the homework part comes in "big guy." If you'd actually read the entire thread you would know that I allready installed this kit w/help from those on this forum(they know who they are)

You seem quick to point out how you **** others off, its even in your sig; Is it perhaps to cover up another weakness...hmm...

Why is there an argument here about Moon and I'm not involved? How could this possibly happen?
I'm going soft...

Seems you've taken a page right out of Phil's playbook: avoid the question, attack the person. You're almost as good as Phil.

Let's just put this to bed right now. Answer this question: Do you think Moon can give me a professional installation, yes or no?

Because he is going to install my blower. By the way, how many Pettit kits has anyone else installed compared to Moon? Charles, got an answer? Anyone?

And frankly, I don't have time or inclination to search through every one of your ******* posts to know the depth of you soul.

wow,

yes, a lot of people could answer that ?. but why would they?

Chill with the Pettit on Pettit crime already...

I think this is a sort of misunderstanding on your part zen, and everyone's just !@#$ing with you because you jumped to conclusions and insulted people in the process.
