I don't think you are shilling, as I don't know your relationship with BMS, so it wouldn't be a fair charge. I think your own post on the BMS site portrays your position quite accurately, something to the effect that bad people were saying bad things about the BMS products on another site (xoutpost), and that Terry needed to give you a picture so that you could shut it down.

When you tried to get me to rate the vendors, I commented on three of the better known ones, and said we should lump all the ebay sellers in a separate category. I thought that was quite clear.

I think it is misleading to suggest that these tunes have CARB certification.

What I have observed is that promoters and fans tend to get quite excited about these sorts of products. For another example, just read about Sprintbooster here or on many other forums . In the case of Aidan, he apparently thinks of tunes as either remaps, or something much less than that, and he lumps all piggyback devices together. That is his prerogative. I don't happen to agree, but I don't see a reason to start calling him names. Calling someone Lucky Charms reflects on you as much as it does on him IMO
Where did I say they have CARB certifications ? I mentioned that if anyone here has ever dealt with having a product approved through CARB, that they would see the cost of doing such a thing. I know because I was involved with a company who designed a product for Mustang Modular motors that does have a CARB certification. It was a fancy way to say " Bribe the State of California to the tune of thousands of dollars to give you a sticker "....That's all I referenced. I don't think any of these guys have CARB numbers. If they did, the 400 tune would be 1200 bucks. I'll call him Lucky Charms, a drunk and anything else I want because he is irresponsible enough to attack a company without knowledge. If he were just giving his opinion, that's a different story.
