It has come to my attention that there is a member on here trying to sell a supercharger system for thomas knight. Before i start i would like to say i do not in any way work for Modern Muscle and am in no way obligated to them. I am strictly testing the supercharger they are about to start producing. We already have an understanding that i am to beat the hell out of it and my car to see if it stands up to the test and to make sure it is a topo notch system. As it stands right now some of my friends on the forums are getting pm's that are border line harassment about the MM s/c being a joke and full of problems. this member is also putting out there that i am abandoning the Modern Muscle s/c and going for the thomas Knight kit. this is false. I will be installing the MM kit very shortly and i am very confidant in the way they have researched and designed the kit. they are going about the tuning solution properly and using the preditor to modify the peramiters. the thomas knight kit is using the tuning methods the 4 cylenders of the early 90's use. they are putting an extra injector in the intake and just throwing a whole bunch of extra fuel in it. the Modern Muscle kit will be utilizing diferant injectors all together so we can get the proper amount of fuel to each cylender and properly moniter the amount of eeach injector. As it stand right now i would not trust the Thomas Knight system on my car. i have spent too muchtime and money withinertia motorsports to just blow it up from putting a very untuneed unrefined system on my car. and i know stu would be pretty pissed off if the test units go blown up from putting a junk s/c on my car. look MAGNUM SXT 260 HP I am not interested in the thomas knight system and as far as i can tell from your piosts you dont know anything about cars except you have more power now. you even admitted it on another post where you said you are just getting into it. i hope for your sake the thomas knight setup will hold for your engine at the 4.5 psi but frankly with what you have i dont know that it will. since you dont know what you are talking about maybe you should stop posting unless its to learn and you should start doing a lot of research to what you are dealing with. i really hope you are getting paid by thomas knight to talk up his system because you really are losing a lot of respect and as it stands right now there is a lot of people that are very tired of hearing what bs you are feeding people.

I find this kind of behaviour HIGHLY offensive. Also, WishingForHemi has been around these forums a LONG time and is doing an incredible amount of work testing various NEW systems for the 3.5 motors. He should not have to deal with extra headaches.

Your a stand up guy and a pioneer in the V6 performance world and the rest of us thank you. Modern Muscle and Stu are really rocking things the right way to bring us quality speed parts. Keep in mind that going into uncharted territory will mean that your rattling some cages along the way, even unintentionally. This member you mention has already gotten heat on other forums for being well... an idiot. And I agree with your statements regarding this members posts. Mod on V6 pal.

forget about that user.....You are doing a great deal for the V6 Community and for that I give you a lot of respect. I know it can get tough testing parts with people getting on you for results it happened to me with the Cams but its worth it in the end. You are the first of us to be given the opportunity to gain some BIG power and we are all excited to see what comes of it.

Good luck with the testing. We are all waiting to see what the outcome is.

Nate.

A note about the MM kit vs. the Thomas Knight... and I expect some eye-rolling or flaming b/c I do know the guys at MM. But... ask that dude how much money and time he has into his car trying to get the Knight blower to actually work... It ain't such a bargain in the end. Knight also had electric superchargers on their website at one point in time, if that tells you anything. GSM proved the auxilary injector system doesn't work on the Hemis. I know the V6 is a very different beast, but if that doesn't scare you into using proper tuning and bigger injectors, then spend away. Also, be wary, just because somebody has an opinion does not mean they are educated.

If members are being harassed and/or lied to about you or either system, action should be taken.

the auxilary injector does get more fuel but it is a very primitive and dangerous way of doing it. the first two cylenders get most of the extra fuel and by the time you get to the last two you are running those pretty lean. on another thread that died over a year ago this cat started it back up again like it was an active thread. i did offer him a little advice but doesnt even understand the importance of a properly tuned vehicle when dealing with boost which leads me to believe that thomas knight just fed him some crazy bs and he is now using the little bit of info he doesnt even understand to offer up to the rest of the people. this scares me to have him offering any info on the forums because there are people that have never dealt with anything car related until they fell in love with the lx. now if they accidently fall onto one of his posts and he offers up any info that person that wants to know whats up is now screwed

yes action will be taken about this but i have to call the guy later on this week to have him foward the exeact pm's and emails so i can have word for word proof to show the moderators. btw if any one would like to pm this thread to this cat i would like to see what he would like to say bout this and maybe back off a little before what happens on the custom mag forums happens here too

well i dont hink this will really go anywhere but the ones who are following the v6 s/c developement already know the member that is being spoken about, i dont think his opinion has any clout around any forum. all you have to do is read his posts
