As the Dos Equis man would say ' Stay patient as well as staying thirsty my friends!'

Exactly! That way they dont like assholes! Like I said, even their low ball numbers are still high.

I enjoy a good lively conversation! Just being the devils advocate on the subject matter. I can't wait to get mine but I'm patiently waiting. This is a mod week for me. One I'm getting on Monday and it goes to the body shop on the same day and back to me within two days and then the install, and pushing to have it done before Opening Day at IMS and the other is this Vararam CAI which I'm hoping like hell to see how it feels on the track. I'm thinking I should have it by Friday, install it if in fact it goes out Monday. Has anyone gotten tracking info? I know Steve told me mine would go out Friday or Monday at the latest.

companies don't care if they look like assholes. they care about making money. a company could be considered the number 1 asshole in the business, but if they are also making the most money because they make great products, they don't care...

Ok. You own a company with a bad reputation and come and see me in 6 months. Customer service is everything brother. Running a company doesnt stop with a good product.

PoorMansCamaro · 05-07-2011, 03:46 PM

i'm not saying a company wants to have bad customer service. where are you getting this from? how does customer service play in this scenario of down-playing their numbers?

can you also please give an example of a company that has down-played their product output to help their business? How many times have we asked for individual dyno's to get real-time numbers because company dyno's were always on the higher side?

Trnsfmr · 05-07-2011, 03:54 PM

Dude! Youre killing me! What do they feed you guys out there in Las Vegas? First, the dyno numbers are up...on this thread! Second, you need to go back and read our conversation...as 1 sided as it may be. And, dont you have an Injen already? Id be hardpressed to think youd be willing to pay another $300 for another intake.

Trnsfmr · 05-07-2011, 03:56 PM

...individual numbers are impossible if the intake isnt out yet.

hey, i'm just making a comment on your comment. lol about companies down-playing their numbers. it rarely happens, if ever. They try and get the best numbers possible to advertise their product to be the best.

and yes, i do have the injen. does that mean i can't change intakes? if there is a significant difference, i can sell my injen. i know a few locals that want my intake already. So i can use that money towards this one, if it's worth it.

I think everyone that is complaining about Maryland taking they money should take it up with them. Cause Steve just took some of our info and won't charge us till it ships out. And I never heard of a company charge for anything before it's even out. Your card info is suppose to hold your item or spot on release/ship day then be charged. So I think the complaints are aimed at the wrong person/company right now.

Some of us ordered from Vengeance and others ordered from Maryland Speed. Vararam has to ship the intake to either one of those places first and then those companies will ship it out to you.
