My apologies Area. Never meant for the thread to turn into this. Guess it shows charactor on here.

so wheres his timeslips hrmm? Like I said they don't seem to be listed in the top 10 fastest on here. Don't call out other people's trap speeds when you haven't even posted something considerably better.

um, because i don't run my car a full 1/4 mile pass? i let out at the 1k mark and still trap 110 mph. i ran at the track with a slipping clutch, and short shifted and still trapped 111mph.

one of the few ***** put passes last year i did with the 3.1 pulley was 116 mph.

aside from this i run the 13.5 class in the vamp series here in kansas city.

go ahead and call me out on my trap speeds.

why the **** would i be obliged to help people on this forum when i get kicked in the dick when i do?

here is a fact. I was fortunate that area was able to fool with my tune for a couple a days. In person, with the car. It runs so much stronger and better its a credit to his capabililities. And it proves that if you know what you are doing and start with a good base tune there is more to be had. Area's car proves his worth. So does mine. The rest is all bs...the wannabe tuners, the "i'm just learning"and the " I know it all" included....

Well, maybe when the time comes I can throw some money at you then Area. I for one appreciate your input to this site. I think there might be an issue with people not being able to setup their cars as well, and then claiming that Area must be lying, instead of confronting the truth. I don't get why people pick on him so much. Glad to see many people, including a vendor, come to bat for him.

i'll put $1000 in bryan's favor for that race. actually, make it $2000. bryan has been tuning for a long ass time now. and racing for even longer. i don't remember who said "whenever i ask him a question, stupid or not i'm still learning, and he doesn't answer back being a jerk" is right. i ask bryan aaaall kinds of questions. and he always gets back to me with the correct information on the subject along with his personal oppinion(which i hold higher than ANYONE on this site). he is the ONLY person i trust to install and tune ANYTHING on my car. i'll have spent close to $1000 for his tuning alone after my next trip up there. but the thing is....is that i don't care. cause i know its done right, and i know its the best quality, its what i want, and sometimes what i dont want because the car can't handle it. and unlike other tuners that will say "oh well, its what the customer wanted" bryan will give you advice FOR FREE about what you should or shouldn't do in a given situation. in my oppinion, theres nothing to question about his trap speeds nor his mods. he tells you what he does....so he can tune the **** out of a car and make it perform at its best and many, many other people can't. not his fault... he listed his mods, not his tune and knowledge of cars and racing. i've seen his car in person, i've seen his car dyno 342whp with a god aweful amount of torque in person. i've rode in his car with a boost leak and partial throttle and i guarentee it'll **** up everyone of your cars.

/rant on why people need to shut the **** up and give respect when its deserved.

I've had the exact opposite experience. I've asked him questions about tuning nobody else has been able to successfully answer and never received a response. This was why I jumped from the "Area is a god" bandwagon over to the "Area is a dick" side. I have no reason to believe he's what everyone else says he is, because he just turned his nose up at me.

I'll offer $500 if he can figure out the 2 issues I have right now.

Qwikredline you seem to be missing from this list and the top 10 drag times? So until you have actually accomplished something keep your mouth shut about what others have proof of doing.

As far as some youtube video going around and spinning tires, whooptie do, wheres the video of this mythical 116mph trap?

tvs w/2.9 pulley - I got a 3.1
79 lb injectors - I got 60s
pacesetter header - ZZP is the same thing
MKC 3inch dp - Prob without a cat, I still have a cat
3inch vibrant catback - Yea I have all 3 inch too
meth injector w/5gph nozzle - Yea I have this too
90/10 mix meth to water - I run 50/50 because I dont want to set my car on fire, nevermind the fact that every single company that sells water injection kits reccomends against doing this for a number of reasons. 1 - methanol has a low flash point 2 - Methanol is HIGHLY corrosive to aluminum and eats it, as you may be aware our engines are all aluminum, this is why you run 50% water in any solution
supertech 78lb valve spring kit - dont have this
ott 3inch intake - mines 3 inch too
k&n filter - yea
BONE ******* STOCK HEAD PORTS AND PISTONS - me too

So really the only difference is a pulley for more boost and the ability to rev 1000rpm higher, also keep in mind his numbers are on a dynojet, mine are not, so I have no doubts that with valve springs revving 1000rpm higher with added boost adding the egobooster dynojet, I zero doubts my numbers would be plus or minus 10 of 340whp, no amount of pixie dust is going to prevent that.

But I'm sure as hell not putting any more money into a car I drive a few miles to work and the grocery store just to prove anything to you morons. As far as advice goes he's pretty ambiguous but for the most part helpful. I used to run a 75mm pulley last year and he stated this was so bad on a stock head, yet he's running one and has a stock head nevermind the fact that I'm running 1000rpm less.

I don't mean to make this a me vs anyone thread but when people want to throw out bullshit I'm going to set the record straight.
