    Chris I talked to Carlos when I was up there...call me Ill tell you what I know!

    Guys that might have came off differently then I had intended...Ralph said he was a nice guy. We all know that something typed vs something said can have different inflections...

    Sorry to hear of your troubles, Chris. I didn't see this thread until someone sent it to me as we're the first Techco distributor and are getting the first 5.7 kit here to test and RUN AT THE TRACK. :) I just sent this to Techco in hopes you guys can resolve this and move on. I have enjoyed working with Techco since Day 1, and Saleen for several years prior, and hate to see stuff like this as I'm sure there is no ill will going on here with them. Best of luck with your project!

    I understand where your coming from Chris. As you know, Sean seemed somewhat interested in my car, even asking if my car had been to SEMA. I said no, but it was available. Sean didn't come right out and offer me a supercharger, but was very interested in my build.

    I was there the next day after you and Cam where there.

    I purpose built my motor for the I-Charger or any twin screw, and was promised the 1st productiion unit. I'm sure glad I did 10.3 CR, and not low compression.

    At least there are production units in your case.

    I know you are very frustrated and everything I say here will be taken and talked about behind closed doors, more posts, more pm's etc..... If you would like to talk, please call me. I don't know what else I can say

    As the supercharger get out there, we all will see some of the racers posting their numbers. We are doing what we can to get them out as soon as possible.

    Ralph is MOL right? When the hell did he ever ask to run me? Where is that coming from? I'll never turn down a race even for money....street race, track, wherever....heads the fuck up.....

    All i talked to him about was hooking me up on future installs on my Jeep....

    I wasn't quite in person WTF?.....I'm a nice guy especially in person but if shit needs to be talked then i talk it but i don't know where you're getting these rumors from.....

    All u guys had were excuses....that's still a fact.....

    Paul ive been drag racing for damn near 15 years now and this will be the slowest car Ive ever run down a track. The only excuse for me not going to the track, and yes it is an excuse, is that I know it wont hook. I feel its a waste of time kinda like trying to do open heart surgery with a pocket knife...yeah it can be done but why...

    You are new to the game and have a good running car but its still only an 11 sec car. There are many guys running around with 10 second cars on the street. IMHO someone that talks this much shit is trying to prove something to everyone. I would suggest, and its only a suggestion mind you, that you talk less and let your actions speak for themselves. I think you will find that people will respect you more. A famous man once said speak softly and carry a big stick...

    As far as Ralph goes maybe I miss hear what he was saying when he was telling us about you. He said you were much more respectful and a nicer person then you portrait yourself to be here. I would like to think he was right but the more I read your posts the more I am unsure. I will hold judgment off till we meet in person. I am sure that will be soon.

    Once again I will say this, what is typed here can be misinterpreted since there is no inflection of feeling. I hope you dont take anything personally as I am just trying to relay my opinion.

    Guys we are typing here there is no sense of tone in are words. half the things I say on here shouldnt be taken serious, hell if that was the case we would all be gay men touching ron and rick

    Trojan I am very very sorry to hear your story, Its things like this that make choices for people that are thinking about getting a product think twice. If there where some track times I would be seriously thinking about there blower. And why do they need a car for so long to install a top mount blower?

    See below quote for the trash talking you just said you don't do..



    The only crap started here was what you said above ^^^^ John even threw out an apology which you can not even acknowledge. Instead, you talk with a crappy attitude above and below! WOW!

    well shot guys I was making progress, the Paul race crap don't belong here eithier, back to the thread topic and discussions,
    I've spoke with Carlos at Techo and we both know were eachothers at, he is talking to his higher ups, he says he's gonna try and got to bat for me, said I hear from him this afternoon or the morning. I got my fingers crossed as we speak!
