Thumbs up Huge Thanks To Dheck

him and his buddys got my headers and exhaust on in about 3 1/2 hours. then he deleted codes/tuned my car in like 10min. my dad was with me and he is very hard to impress and he was very impressed at the work they do. if you want anything done to your car talk to dheck and he will do it and fast and right

thx again guys

I've been thinking I'm going to get him to tune my car after the cam I do but I don't want him to lock it since I plan on scooping up a wideband and HP Tuners. I don't know if there is any issues going inbetween the software either. Maybe he will chime in here.

dont by mickey drag radials for a stick car, buy BFGoodrich. mickeys have to stiff of a sidewall, stick cars dont like them. they need a softer sidewall

i said that you need stall/headers/mickeys/tune to run 13.3s because thats what another car dheck worked on ran....

a he also built a procharged, built, Z06 vette went 12.0@121..

im not a fan of the guy.... i think he does really bad tunes, does poor work and he couldnt pay me enough to work on my car, but thats me. if you had a good experience more props to you. hope the car runs a good number.

We all know you don't like me, you've made that very clear. You bash me in every thread like it's your job when you have nothing to back it up. I've never even meet you. Everyone is extremely happy with me and don't feel I need to justify myself to you. I tried to burry the hatchet with you but you have too much pride. I don't know what else to do. I commend you in your persistance to try and harm me. Good luck with it. I think you're efforts are falling short but I wish you the best. I think it's comical.

How about NO. I'm not advertising at all. I even asked him to take that out of his sig. I don't ask people to make these threads and prefer they don't. I know how things work around here. I am looking for NO work here. Let me make that perfectly clear.

Understood. I know there is a fine like here and when threads like this come up I know it crosses it. If admin wants to delete it then by all means. I don't want to step on anyones toes.

randy's car did ok on them. and vice versa kris' car sucked on the bfg tires. i think if you're making big power they are a bad choice for a stick car. i would rather see a set of 15" welds and some slicks on the back with some skinnies up front for a stick car.

i heard all this stuff about mickeys before i bought them. At first i was not impressed till i got to a track with a real good prep. on stock (old and horrible) suspension my car went 1.69 and had the tires up about an inch which surprised me with a 4.56 geared stick car.

on the welds though... yeah id agree there though, thats why i have a set and some 28s here
