You still fail to understand the logic in that thread and now you are claiming an '07 tranny suddenly jumped into your '04 to explain this lack of understanding?

I just re-read that whole thread. You do have a serious breakdown in logical thinking there. Its maddening. Never mind the fact that your transmission suddenly got younger.
As an aside - have you ever read a synopsis of the general theory of relativity?
If so, what is your impression of it?

I don't know.
I never did get any info on the final tune that the shop that Louie used arrived at.
I do know that, with a vent-to-atmo wastegate, street-tuning is almost impossible because of the noise.
You would NEVER hear detonation or even lean mis-fire when the car is making power.
Really, I don't understand why people do vent-to-atmo wastegates on a street car.
Its stupid, annoying, unnecessary and makes the car impossible to tune.

This is unreal...
Just wondering... Other than your 300whp RX8 what other vehicles have you built. Specifically big turbo builds?

You calling me a "newb" is quite ignorant of you, but I'm not one to be offended by cheap shots, especially those coming from people of your nature. (Ignore my join date as much as you want, but don't be foolish and assume things... there's more to ones automotive knowledge and skill than a post count)
Just wondering about your automotive back round. Its not a loaded question at all and there's no need to get defensive, its something I'm sure man would like to know.

I have no idea who you are and what you've done beyond that.
Its not pejorative, just a fact.

No, not fact, ignorance. You made a comment without paying better attention. Skimmed over the Oct. '04 join date and "assumed" 20 post could only be the result of one being a "newb." Maybe a higher level of maturity coupled with a lower degree of arrogance might have resulted in a better use of wording. Your use of the word "fact" is borderline narcissistic.
Anyplace in particular?

Whatever. Doesn't particularly mean anything to me, which is all that matters to me, narcissistic, arrogant or immature as that may be to you.
I'm not motivated to do things for other people's benefit.
You've been here since '04 and can't figure that out?
Newb.

I didn't pay any particular interest to you when you came here because you hadn't the backround worth acknoledging. At that point you had a MX3 you'd talk about that produce very unimpressive numbers. You jumpped on the Greddy Kit wagon and pretty much you were known as the guy with the big mouth and the only working Greddy kit.
Your knowledge of rotaries in general was limited and thats the kind of information I came to this forum to learn. Although I was better off at the RX7 forums with the real pros who have history to back up their arogance.

The truth is that there are a very select few on this site who have actually succeeded in providing good advice that actually works with the 8.
MM is one of them - why he has to be so arrogant with it is something only he knows .
But rest assured if MM says it is right 95% of the time it will be

I haven't seen anyone else provide as many tunes as MM, and be able to do it blindly (remotely) with so few issues.
He not only is able to get the job done, but he has shown the ability to figure out and make things work without outside help.
By my definition, he has a deservedly positive history of results with the RX-8.
As soon as your RX-7 pros do the same for the RX-8, then you can start injecting their thoughts into our discussions. Or, I guess you can head back to the RX-7 forums and see how much RX-8 help you get.

I asked a simple question about his mechanical backround.

Oh. I'll try to be more demure in the future. I'm sure that will advance my cause much more forcefully.
Its out there. Go find it.

Power!!
Is there a question somewhere in this or just a thread Jack?
I'd rather Jeff was spending time looking at my latest datalog and sending me an updated map or giving me feedback on what he needs from me to get my AFRs above 5K dialed in at WOT. This just seems like a trolling exercise and a deliberate waste of time and data storage space.
I have confidence in Jeff's abilities for 2 reasons.
1) He does it to his own car first and puts some skin of his own in the game before testing it on the unsuspecting public.
2) He has shown his in depth theoretical as well as practical knowledge many times on this forum and with others that he has helped out after other tuners have given them something that is less than ideal.
I trust him with tuning my car.
I wouldn't necessarily trust him to take care of my house and my cat for a weekend but hey, everyone has their strengths and weaknesses.
