I think TiAgX5 is a tree hugger that hates to see anybody mess with the emissions stuff on a vehicle. Or, maybe he works for the EPA....and he's about start issuing fines to everybody on the forum that's altered their vehicles. We're all screwed! We've have big brother after us now.

What happened to the days of the ole Chevy 350 when there was a simple breather on top of the valve covers....

:rofl: I've been called many things but NEVER this.

The Viper is running 700 hp with Henessey big tube headers, straight pipes and Moroso race mufflers, no cats.

:bustingupBeen called many things but never this.

The Viper is running 700hp with big tube Henessey headers and Moroso spiral flow race mufflers, no cats. Even passed Fla emmission inspection that way because the inspector can't visually verify the cats on a Viper, OE location is inside the rocker panels.

Guys, tiag had been around for a while and his comments have helped a number of members...

i re-read the thread, and while indeed do find his comment is a bit harsh to Able truck, i did not find a malicious intent warranting thrashing him... i perfectly understand what Able truck is trying to do, come up with a home brewed remedy to a problem that should have been addressed on corporate level of the BMW AG - a problem of the global level can't be successfully resolved on one local level...
I am very interested in the Able truck's solution, as i have the N62 that is directly affected by this whole issue... once i totally understand what he had done, i might consider implementing it, to extend the usable life of the truck while in my possession..

i understand the point that Tiag is making as well - and I must agree with him... when i walk up to a car on sales lot that has, say an aftermarket radio or nav or some ridicuolous brake job, i just walk away from that car... if the car has a DINAN stuff or HARTGE or other known name on it, i am ok with the car... why? because not every aftermarket solution is created equal - there are some items that are engineered by skilled team of engineers and some items that are slapped into the car for the heck of it...

what tiag is saying, that while that solution might work to extend the life of otherwise doomed situation, that solution is not a remedy...

just lets be nice to each other...

and why don't we all meet at the bimmerfest this coming saturday??? have a beer and laugh it off!!!:thumbup:


oh... and speaking of Big Brother... if anyone here is part of it - that would me...:nanana: and I am myself scared of the abilities of the government, even though i amworking to implement it into real life... :D

You're going to be a tree hugger if you keep pokin' the bear. Couldn't be a better time to eat some humble pie. Suggestion--say--I was outa my hed. I was a sittin' ona fir ant hill whenst I rote it.

@TiAgX5

You called the guy out by looking his business up online, and telling him that his repair "flys in the face" of his shops mission statement. That's the part that makes you sound like an asshole.

Deep down....I bet you'd like to work for the EPA...admit it.:rofl:

- The problem I have had with other forums is the exact reaction (post) of TiAgX5. I thought these forums were meant to discuss common problems - give & take - to come up with solutions. One forum was a advertising bonanza for a poster willing to do valve stem seals at home for a discount. As soon as I stepped in, even my dead mother was attacked.
- I did a R&D install for a energy/aerospace/transportation power solutions corporation for an alternative power supply to the conventional battery - I appeared in their sales video (which can be found on u-tube) - the engineers asked for my input but when it wasn't what they wanted to hear, they asked me to sign a non-disclosure (I refused), they wrote me a check and asked for their prototype back. It doesn't work as advertised but they're selling it anyway. I don't think he's a tree hugger - he's just got an attitude - some call it character - no harm - but thanks for all the positive feedback from this forum.

:hijack:

we always need a dessent - without one, any human gathering becomes too much in compliance with prevailing doctrine, which leads to degradation of the society...


the following setup works

OK, time to respond pussnut. With a little knowledge you MIGHT be dangerous.

You've been here for only a few weeks (Apr '13 join date), before making comments like "a'hole" and "you don't contribute ANYTHING to the site", spend some time here to grow some hair on your ball.

I've been maintaining and updating the "GOOD INDY SHOPS NATIONWIDE" thread on XOutpost for quite some time now. In keeping the info contained therein relevent/useful I have read/reviewed hundreds of indy shop descriptions and mission statements on the internet. FYI, the query into "A B Able Truck" came about when his first post was a copy/paste of the requirements of fuel additives/octane boosters on older engines, not this thread at all.

I have NO wishes to work for the EPA, those who can't do work for the government and teach. My money is on your a teacher, seeing as you seem to dumb to get a "gubment" job.

That's deep --- Is there a toilet in that second picture?

What does "pussnut" mean?

That's not my mission statement (never wrote one)!
