Ahh - ok - very disappointing :? The conversations I've had with them didn't run along those sorts of lines so all I've ever seen is a general enthusiasm about the potential of the I6.

Its not the first time i've heard this.
some people rave about him, great bloke, always helpful etc etc.
others have had nothing but arrogance. bagging their existing products, finding reasons why their car wouldn't be making the power they claim.

i've only ever dealt with brendan, and only in person at events and he was always approachable.

I have spoken with Brendan also, and he seems fine. Jim might of been on his period when i went there, I wasn't a fan of him.

My take on it is, if you go there with a stocker they are welcoming as you are willing to give them a go first. If you go in there with previous mods then you get tge arrogant treatment as you've spent your money elsewhere first and are only going to them to fix the mistakes of your mismatched combo.
