I cant say what my opinion would be had I not read this thread, but I know a lot of work went into making this product reliable and of high quality. It is your opinion, but many people have been waiting for this SC for a reason.

I might be an A-hole, but I am in no way dumb, maybe stupid, but alot smarter than you, which is good enough for me

8 maniac, I'm not saying that it won't work, or it sucks, because quite frankly, I don't even know the product, and have never used it, so for me to say that would be plain ignorance

I'm just saying that, from what I've seen at SSX AT THEIR BOOTH, ALSO THE ONE ON THEIR CAR, it looks.........well, crap, to explain my word "crap" would be dirty, wierd looking, and well, dirty, which is why I'm saying that it looks REALLY freaking cheap, aside from the fins and turbine inside which is pretty cool, the outside just looks like crap, I'm not saying the quality is crap, the appearance looks like it though, god I thought you guys were smart

This is by far one of the most innovative products that will ever be released for the RX-8. And because it's "dirty" it's "crap"?

You should re-read many of your own posts before making such comments.

I'm dumb, yet you - who saw this piece in person - called it crap until you saw pics of it?

...And so it came to pass that the Axial Flow Supercharger thread erupted in a vicious flame war to end all flame wars... or maybe just a mild tiff.

...popcorn anyone?

Glad you like it now.

Not until the tuning is completed by Cobb.

If I have my AFSC by this next summer you can colour me very happy. Just don't colour me green. If I didn't have such faith in ol' RP, I'd be calling "vaporware." I'm sure there's just some technical hitch somewhere.

I believe the technical hitch is with Cobb, not RP and the AFSC.

I was sort've hoping taja would edit that post before anyone else saw it yesterday (I almost sent you a pm) but then I figured you're entitled to your opinion just as much as some of the other people here. I'm glad you see you changed your mind - though I hope it was of your own free will.

This is a lesson to all of us not to judge things before we understand them!

I'm hoping this is in the market when I'm really ready to evaluate going FI (soon). If it performs well, I wouldn't have much problem kicking you a few bucks.

I'm also waiting for the Cobb unit to come out to see how it stands up to the other EMS's anyway. So blocking on it's release isn't too bad [for me]~

RP and his products are awesome!

it was of my own free will, I must have been drunk that day, come to think of it it doesn't really seem that bad at all, I can't say it looks good, since honestly I think pettit supercharger looks better, and hymee's looks wayy better, but they all still get the job done........

I am evaluating all FI options, reading long *** posts in these threads which are mostly either useless random comments or ***-licking

I do not regret saying that it looked like crap, because how I remembered it was, but looking at the pics from jedi's and other's, I guess sleep deprieviation took it's toll, because I also thought that lady at falken's booth was also ugly, but john went in for an autograph, so.........
