My technical knowledge of tuning is painful at best. My comments strictly have to do with the manner in which Subaru Specialists was brought into this forum; accused of doing something wrong. In your own best interest, I would just stop posting, call Nate, take him up on his offer. Nate is an extremely level headed and talented person. My guess is it would end up a productive encounter rather than the confrontational one that has formed here.

I've met Nate on one previous occasion and had nothing against him at all. He installed my fuel pump and tried to fix my exhaust clearance issues and we had a good talk. Like I said, I had nothing against him, but I had to defend what I presented to Keegan.
I agree this thread should die here and now as there is really nothing else to say, and there has been nothing new to say for a couple hours now.

Or we can just all shake hands, and call it a day, period. Everything's been said, decision has been made, it's time to move on, forward and upward.

This thread has served its purpose. There is enough information from both sides for other consumers to make their own choice in the matter, and I think the choice is pretty clear.

Done. Lets move on to tomorrow.

same time tomorrow morning?
*EDIT* Oops, I forgot about Aaron's post. I think this matter should be resolved further more privately between the party of three, and then the conclusion be posted. Every shop/tuner has to have atleast one customer that was not satisfied. Unfortunately this situation became ugly very fast when it could not have been if dealt with differently.

I'm glad this is calmin down,.....i think it speaks alot of Nate and the S-S crew to hold back amid this trainwreck.
I don't like you either..or ur comments, so i guess we share that viewpoint.

I'll step aside, and let the people that have real talkin/postin do their stuff, i don't care to kneel down to your level NZO.

maybe one of our friendly mods could do a thread split and keep the legitimate discussion of this issue in this one and move all the witty banter into a new one...
