Tone's not in it for the money?! That's rich, creeg. That's a fairy tale. Your mother does things for you out of love - Tone just wants your money. I'm no fan of his, and it's not because of what he sells - it's because of his "Here's my deal - take it or go f--- yourself" attitude in doing business. Case in point...Originally Posted by creeg
Tone charged me $75 for a supercharger throttle cable bracket and another $40 to overnight it (for a 2-3 ounce part!) because he knew had me over a barrel - my VX was disassembled in a garage waiting for the bracket before it could be brought back to life. Yowza!!!
Now, this is the same throttle bracket that others have been complaining for years that they never got with their S/C kits, but Tone made it out like he was doing everything in the world to get the parts out of "evil, uncaring" Alpine.
Did you catch the implication in that? Many VXers here have paid Tone thousand$ for S/C kits that did not come with the brackets (among other parts), and never got them out of Tone - meanwhile he just so happens to find one and charges me $75 plus exorbitant shipping for it, instead of giving it to one of the many customers who already paid for it and never got it.
Tone, you have a lot of nerve (and no grounds!) for blasting away at Dino like that. There is nothing he said that isn't generally true of any filter kit, and I looked on your site just now - there is no dyno graphs on your site for the Green filters. The closest thing I was able to find was a dead link here to to a graph that used to include the dyno curves for the S/C before and after adding in the PV exhaust - JUST LIKE DINO SAID.
And that's all FACT Tone - with a paper trail behind it. Your ridiculously-quick defensiveness speaks to your insecurity about your products. You have been portrayed as some sort of all-knowing VX god here, but I find that characterization laughable.
And you don't even own a VX anymore...
