Here's the problem; Allegations and heresy aside, in a way we ARE footing the bill for your bullshit. Every day people misappropriate information and use forums as a tool to leverage and threaten. When you purposely provide false information to our community and we act on it by omitting our patronage to said company, we lose great vendors, the cost of the products of those who stay in business go up to cover your newly added overhead, and potential vendors and manufacturers just plain decide not to play ball with us from the negative stigma that people like you generate.

I understand that GM is a big corporation. The cost of fixing your car may be a drop in the bucket for them. If you think you're the only one trying to pull the wool over their eyes today you're kidding yourself brother.

We're not GM nuthuggers here; We simply don't like being lied to.

I am running a 150 shot with TR6's gapped at .035. After 2 days of the install my check engine light came on which I knew was going to happen. My car is untuned by the way. After the light came on my car started idling rough and had a noticible misfire. I thought it was bad gas so I ran my tank empty and filled with premium and did the fuse pull over night. Didn't help. I thought it might of been plugs. I replaced them with .035 gapped TR6's. Didn't help. Changed my wires to MSD's ,didn't help as well. The codes I'm getting is multiple random misfire and bank 1&2 sensor 2 not responding which I know is due to the rear 02's not being plugged in. My car now has a louder more noticible valve train noise almost like a loud ticking sound. At idle and low rpm's the car has less power while the check engine light flashes and I get a service stabilitack sign. I step on the gas and the light stops flashing and service stabilitrack goes away and the power returns with a slight jump. What could it be??!! Also will the dealership tell I I ran nitrous if I remove the kit and put my stock plugs in??

Someone else told that could be it

I always check my plugs always make sure the car is empty and run 100 octane thru the system before nitrous use. There's people running 200 shots on stock tune tr6's and 100 octane.

I had my buddy run a compression test and all cylinders were at 180+ except cylinder number 2 it was at about 45 psi. Now my question is I have long tubes with no cats and the rear 02's aren't plugged in. Should I just pay to have my headers removed and replaced with the stock ones?? And also my valve covers got painted about a month ago. Could this void my warranty as well.

Car has a misfire and idles rough when at a stop light. When I get up to speed the service stabilitrack goes away and power returns but the check engine light still flashes. What's going on??? I changed out all my plugs checked plug wires and check my o2 extensions and sensors. Reset the light at the local autozone but still runs horrible at idle. Any ideas what it could be. I know it has to be tuned since the rear o2's aren't plugged in but would it really make it this bad???

That's why I'm going to change to regular tires maybe the invos and buy a set of 18 or 17 rear wheels and run a dedicated drag radial when ever I need it. I was thinking maybe some bogarts or welds for the back

Please show me a link to where someone twisted their subframe. Why would buy a hotrod? I want to build my car I currently have not purchase another car to do the same thing.

I had 2" long tubes with catless connectors installed on my 13 ls3 and never got a code until I had an issue with my motor that wasn't related to the headers. Obviously you don't get the maximum performance with out a tune but it did well.

You can bring up anything posted in the past what matters is that the only real people who got to see the car took apart the motor had the car for over a month the second time and could only come up with the pistons and valves were too clean. They had my motor apart the first time in service and still came up with the pistons were too clean. So you can bring up anything posted. You were not the technician who physically took apart the motor and inspected it.

Jordy should get out of the basement mail room one day and ask one of the lawyers upstairs if fraud and misrepresentation is illegal in his state.

it's dishonest... what he's doing isn't a crime.

when was the last time somebody was charged for claiming warranty repairs after modding?

Lying about mods to get warranty coverage is fraud and fraud is against the law.

It's one thing to go in and not say anything about your mods, it's another to flat out lie when confronted.
