It's really not that Julio. Competition is fine. It helps lower prices to you guys and me, the end consumer.
What's not natural is when you take care of people and then they go out of thier way to talk ----. Look at this thread. Where did it take a turn?

If you can't handle a little trash talking in the family about what your selling out of your living room I'd suggest you take a hike.
Not cool at all!!!!!!

Wow, this has pretty much gone to completely fucked up.

Trying to stay neutral in the matter, I can state a fact about competition. Competition is good, it forcres the best prices for the best products for US (the consumers). I'm kinda big into overclocking and other geek computer activities and I see all the Intel people bash about the shitty AMD xp chips, but the point one has to realize is:
If it wasn't for AMD offering rock bottom chips, intel would still be charging triple digits for any processor they sell.

I can spy a quality product (stealthmode products) when I see one, and I'm still yet to check out cheapturbolines.com. I will still have to freely express that I am exempt from this war since I have an industrial hookup for brass and machine/mechanical fittings - my dad. Good luck to both parties.

EDIT: No, I don't plan on selling any products I have, legal reasons and the insanely low price I was able to obtain brass for.

Take this post, and look what your first remark was. It's typical. Just like when you told that "idiot" who bought the restrictor valve, "you don't need that ----" after he said it solved the smoking problem that he had. Don't be ok with the fact that it worked, tell him he's a moron for thinking he would even need that.

You see a problem with both kits drain lines being too small, but I didn't see you point that out in his thread. Where was that out of nowhere trash talking?

The only reason I got a banner add is because you told me that you needed to fill some spaces. I said I'd take one but I didnt' know how to make it. You said, "tell Random I said to make it". That's what I did. You also saw me plug banner adds to shops trying to sell in classifieds didn't you? Have you ever told me you needed anymore money for my banner add, when my "monthly statement" would end, or anything like that? Go ahead and take it down. I'd hate for you to lose money on that space.

And thanks for taking a shot at me having a side business out of "my living room". How many hmt sellers do you think you offended on that one? More than myself I know for sure. This is Homemadeturbo right? But I guess you have to buy your oil lines from someone other than a "homemadeseller"? I don't think we have any here.

Another typical statement is that I have a thread where people are saying they used my kit and it worked great for them and all of a sudden "everyone is up in Steve's ***".

Keep talking though, your proving my point for me.

dam this thread went in the wrong direction. Steve is a good guy and deserves some more respect than some noob.Steve is a mod and part of this site. Sure competition is great but Loyalty should have some priority. I hate to see friendships go sour over some fucken money and that ---- happens all the fucken time. dam dam dam.

friendships aren't going sour over money, I'm a member of HMT before a seller. That's why you won't find me taking the "politically correct" route. I'm not concerned with others selling oil lines, I'm concerned with the lack of respect.

Drama Drama Drama,

The "oil restrictor valve" Because its stealthmode performance Jeff frank must say he hates it right? No.. the fact that I see absoultly no reason for one to be used. Thats great it solved the guys problem, but an actual market on selling these? I just dont see the point. Sorry if I ruffled your feathers about your new product.

You see a problem with both kits drain lines being too small, but I didn't see you point that out in his thread. Where was that out of nowhere trash talking?
Yes, thats how I get more business's to help advertise on HMT, I talk ---- about their products from the getgo. Hi, welcome to HMT.. your ---- sucks wanna get some banner space?

You also saw me plug banner adds to shops trying to sell in classifieds didn't you?
No..

Have you ever told me you needed anymore money for my banner add, when my "monthly statement" would end, or anything like that?
No, but I do recall a conversation with you that went something like that "Dude, I can get so many people to advertise on HMT, No problem! I can get tons of banner ad's in no time" and since then.... ?

I guess I never got the full "stealthmode experience" when you would absoulty not sell me those wheels you had on special, for a bogus *** reason.

Stealthmode you came up with a good idea and just because someone decided to copy it doesnt mean you have to get so butt hurt. That's business. You cant focus on one product if you want to be succesful in the long run. Hell the idea even crossed my mind of building line kits. Competition is always good.

Chris, are you reading the thread? Competition has been here for a while now. I don't think that has anything to do with what Jeff and I are talking about at this point.

Jeff,
I can't sell you wheels that the manufacturer no longer has in stock. I'm not the first guy to sell a restrictor valve. You know I was plugging banner adds, there just aren't many shops that post in classifieds. I had no idea the banner add would be given based on the amount of space I could get. I intended to get you advertisers, but I didn't think that the space you gave me depended on it. I already said you should take my banner down, then my $100 donation would have covered me for $15 a month from Feb.3 for almost 7 months. Oh well, a little over 3 months was good. :P It's all good, and I am done saying what I have to say.
