This thread is on my subscription list from the same reasons as Vash's Chipmunk thread. Entertainment.
Now you've gone ******* soft, and to be honest, you have NO entertainment value whatsoever.

Get in your ******* kitchen drawer, pick up your *****, and stop acting like an adult. Or consider yourself un-subscribed. Of all the people in the world who'd go ***** from a single forum thread, this is the most surprising one. (And yeah, I am thinking about the ban-whine you presented a while ago)

I R NEED PHUN!! (And dude, you're not delivering anymore..)

He's replaced nearly the entire setup by now with expensive baller ****.
If he keeps ******* around its going to get REEALLLLLLY expensive.

That's not to say we wouldn't mind watching him do it, but I just don't think he's THAT baller lulz

My $180 DEI Titanium turbo shield fell apart. The inner liner deteriorated and the outer became all crunchy and disintegrated at the touch.

I sent them an email (below) and they are coming through! Awesome.

Subject: [Questions / Comments] Titanium Turbo shield falling apart after 3K miles

Faeflora sent a message using the contact form at https://www.designengineering.com/contact.

Hi, I purchased a Titanium turbo shield. The product looks and works great but when I took it off my car recently for some maintainence work, I saw that it was falling apart. The inner liner looked like it had partially burned away and the outer part starts to disintegrate when I touch it. The shield has only been on my car for 3K miles of all street driving and my EGT sensor has never indicated any crazy EGTs. Is this normal? I use your other products (wrap, hose shield etc) and they're great but I'm pretty disappointed in the failure of this expensive item :(

Don't care about that at all. Is your car running? That is the only thing we care about now.

I care not for your disapproval.

As long as my car continues to attract girls and little children, all is good.
