Or god forbid someone takes your advice based on bullshit.

This thread was about a cam choice. He throws out LSK specific lobes for what reason? To try and look like he know's what he's talking about because he thinks it's the new hot thing. The only problem is, he has no clue. When the thread starter gets the information requested, I will at least give my opinion based on fact, not bullshit. If anyone else gives their opinion, great. If it's laced with pure bullshit, should those that know better just shut up about it? That seems to be the going trend in the U.S. today. Well, not me. If people don't like it, they should put me on their ignore list. That way, they won't see my post's.

I know people have different levels of car knowledge. Some have more, some have less obviously. Does it make any sense to bring up an advanced topic level to a thread that the thread starter admits he know's very little. It's one thing if you know what you're talking about, but the "advnd. topic raiser" has no clue. This happens here time and again. He hands out bullshit advice with no fact behind it. Cams are complicated, let's make it more complicated with stupidity.

You're correct, people come on these boards to learn. But the stupidity level is getting very old. I'm thankful he was'nt around when I was asking simple questions to increase power and learn. The thing is, he has a hard time being corrected. Even when your nice about it, the bullshit stills spews.

BTW, to the post starter, from what you have said about the current shop giving you LSx advice, they don't seem very knowledgeable on these engines. Just my opinion of course.

Best post ever.

Default cam vs supercharger

Ok, I know this topic has gone around several times, but now im leaning to the supercharge....I want quick response and the supercharger will give that, plus it seems when I finally figure out which cam and heads to go with it turns out to be less HP then supercharger. so, anyone know who carries one less then $5700, thats the best I've seen. My dealer is going to be pissed when I tell him I changed my mind again..hehe
also, can I use my K&N filter sytem with supercharger or do I have to use there closed filter system. even more important, when they reflash my cumputer it picks up changes I guess from supercharger, but will it pick on the B&B x pipe & filter aftermarkets and correct everything?

HELP!

the tune should be able to deal with all of your mods, no worries there. I fyou r asking about a maggie, then you should probbly look into getting a custom tune since i have heard their stock tune isn't optimal....
