We have played around with a several layouts and formats. We just decided on the version to use. Getting 4 people on the same page has been fun. So the four months is not his fault. Not his fault I do not have the products descriptions and ID's done either. This whole web store thing is more work than I expected.

Super douche huh? Nice choice of words.

I've actually been there for some time. I like it better there because of the JDM atmosphere, and the very tasteful mods they do to their cars.

Talking ****? Not even close. BTW Keith has not asked me why I dislike the FM shield, but I can say this. It has nothing to do with the design physically, or what it is meant to do. Just because I work at FM doesn't mean that I have to have the complete catalog of parts on my personal vehicle. What's so wrong with wanting something different?

I didn't emphasize anything. The second poster asked what I mean by "us", and I told him. Story ends there. You're dragging it on just to make yourself look like the hero.

Who says that I have to put anything about my setup in my sig. I'll put what I want. Now, I do apologize for not stating in the OP about the turbo size. My mistake.

I searched google, ebay, m.net and clubroadster. I found what I was looking for. I just wanted opinions from other members about their setup if they were running one, and what the brand was.

That's fine if you don't like me. The feeling is mutual. When I am on Miata forums, or any automotive forum for that matter, I don't represent anyone but myself. I am there on my own accord, for my own opinions, and doing research for my own vehicles. I do sometimes get sucked into threads that I shouldn't be posting in, but I'm done with that. I just don't feel like fighting in stupid internet battles. Because it is just the internet.

That's good, because something tells me you won't be doing a whole lot of posting here.

Also - I'm sure you recall the thread that spawned your notoriety as a moron and a douchebag on the various forums, the one where you called the GReddy and BEGi kits "incomplete". I couldn't say it over there, but I can say it here: You're a misinformed idiot, and your refusal to admit that you were totally wrong was pretty comical.

Keith, you guys might want to throw a note up on the site saying that you do individual parts. I honestly had no idea you guys sold stuff outside of the kits like that, since it's not very well advertised (or I'm just a dumbass ). It would be a ton of work, but a full list of every part in your kits with a separate price for everything would be awesome. Good to see you on these forums.

That's not really true. I mean, you may feel that way, and you may want that to be true.

However, it's just not the way things work. Stephanie doesn't ask that we consider her independent from Begi, and even though your position may be different from Stephanie's the same holds true for you.

You work for FM, and as long as you advertise that or even leave trails around trying to suggest as much, then you represent them.

This is VERY true.. I dropped a good amount of cash at BEGI this winter.. I had NO idea FM was even a possiblity.. I'm not saying anything would have changed but i didn't even consider FM as an option because I just wanted a few major parts and not an entire kit.

SOMEbody never heard the phrase "best just to leave well enough alone". I wont say who or who he works for or that he totally didn't introduce himself.

That in my eyes is different, because she has a "supporting vendor" tag with her name.

You're right, I won't be posting here at all after this. Although I do own a turbo Miata, I am satisfied with the hardware on my car and don't need to ask any questions outside of FM. The turbo blanket thread was different. It was the weekend, I saw one on another car and was curious, so I posted a thread. No need to wait until Monday.

I do recall that thread. And although I still believe everyone twisted my words around and made me look bad, I would rather just drop the subject. Because I have not changed my opinion in regards to that topic.

Nope. If your work for FM, you represent them. Not 100%, but not 0 either. Agreed, she pays the site money to be published but even if she didn't, she still represents them.

I hope they don't lock it that seems to be how this place is.. When you say something you are held accountable for it and have no place to hide.

If you don't want someone to respond to your opinion posts.. don't post..Quit looking to someone else to bailing you out..

This will be my last post. And I'm not looking for someone to bail me out. I want it locked down because this is all just a misunderstanding.

A misunderstanding can only be sorted out if the dialogue continues. Think about it.. There would be no dialogue between FM and at least two forum members here had it not been for this thread and the FM sponsorship. Those forum members would continue to walk around with a VERY bad taste in their mouths about FM. It’s human nature to talk about those issues with people when the FM name is mentioned. Now at least they can TRY to sort things out because there is a forum they both feel they can voice their side with little to no moderation.

Now that you have voiced your opinions and run off all you have done is fueled the fires. Stand up and be accountable. This drive by shooting technique kills your creditability.

You are so stupid it makes my mind hurt. Nobody twisted ANYTHING you said. I'm not really sure how the **** you misinterpret this:

Unless you STILL don't understand it, in which case I'll spell it out for you real clearly: NO ADDITIONAL PARTS ARE REQUIRED TO INSTALL A BEGI-S OR A GREDDY TURBO AND SAFELY MAKE THE ADVERTISED POWER LEVELS. You don't have to buy one single part beyond the kit itself to make a BEGi-S run. You either didn't know this, in which case you were mouthing off about **** you weren't informed about (unacceptable) or you knew exactly what you were talking about and you decided to just straight-up lie about it (unacceptable).

If you think you can bring your wordshitting onto this forum and then have the mods here bail you out, you are sorely mistaken.

Oh god, take your douchery elsewhere. The thread's staying open, and you're getting banned.
You can try again in 180 days.

Didn't see any reason to ban the fellow for defending himself. You folk are a bit of a tuff crowd. Some of the people arguing with him are worse.
