So how does someone accumulate posts, if there deleted or banned? Becuase someone expresses their opinion, you ban them for not agreeing with you?

It's actually quite simple. If you haven't established a legit reason to be here, like participating in normal LSx talk, then keep you mouth shut about controversial issues like this. People who just sign up to get their words in on these threads deserve to be banned, and I can assure you that your on borrowed time.

Dude, you have 0 posts are you TRYING! to get banned? If you really wanted to know this you would have PM'ed UNIT instead of trying to call him out in public and looking like a jackass.

One accumulates posts by asking questions, adding insight and being a part of the forum in a positive way. This site is probably the BEST Fbody tech site on the web, and when it comes to getting information fast from real people who have tried something and/or know how it works, you can't beat it.
I can't even began to explain how much I have learned about my car, and what mods will really wake it up, including great sources for parts, tunes and other things.
Once you add to a forum, help some people out and establish some credibility, then it might be ok to throw in a sarcastic comment or a strong opinion on a topic, and even then its smart to add a smiley face or jest to let people know your not dead serious, or have some facts/experience to support your claim/comment.

People come here to post real kills in the real world, anything can happen on the street, its always real fun to read what does.
25PSI's problem is that he makes arguements out of the dumbest **** and I can't even count the threads that have spun way out of control because he threw in some dumbass comment about boost, a 350Z or what have you.

Some guys are stickin up for him even on this thread and this is what I say to you.
You wont be stickin up for him when you start a thread and it turns into a shitstorm because someone like him added thier ****** .02 to intentionally stir **** up and cause an arguement. He even did it to one of my kill stories of me and a stock LS1, and you won't be stickin up for him when he does it to yours.

Some people are right in the fact its ok to state your ground/opinion and maybe have discussion or friendly arguements to get something out of the thread, but that is not his intention, it never will be.

His knowledge of engines is limited to say the least.

Exactly if you look at the other thread he started bitching at unit for posting lsx based engines pushing 1000+ rwhp saying that they arent stock engines, but doesnt count the fact that the 800 rwhp 350z he posts isnt a stock engine either. I have no problem with him and I think hes kinda funny because he has no clue about lsx powered vehicles yet still posts all the time at this site. In addition, I still cant fathom how he thinks a stock or bolt on 350z is on par with a stock or bolt on ls1. I wish I had taken vids of my races with one of my buddies from grad school. He has a 350z with a pop charger and borla catback and when i raced him with my 98 z28 when I only had a filter and slp lm I would beat him by approx 3 carlnegths evertime from a 40 roll to about 110 mph and he is a good driver. Oh well though cant educate people who are closed minded.

I have a 350Z and think it's a pretty neat car, but like any car, it has its weaknesses too.

Mine is vortech supercharged making around 460-470whp at 12 psi at the moment. I think it's decent car, but not the greatest thing out there. I don't think it holds a candle at all to what a LSX engine car can do though in terms of power.

I mean, if you put a blower on an LSX car vs my car, it's game over for me. The only hope I'd have is maybe I can outhandle certain LSX cars in stock form other than the vettes, though the Z doesn't come with very large or sticky tires from the factory either so there's a bunch of room for improvement with the 350Z's handling.


I'm on the Z sites regularly, and if there was a honda S2000 guy always there saying how their car destroys Z's etc etc, it'd just be annoying. Most everyone would disagree with them and feel the Z has the better set of attributes for what they want out of a car.

Even though you have an 2004 join date, with 5 posts and you stick up so fiercely for 25psi, it's pretty obvious.
+ 2

Am I the ONLY one who noticed the "banned" under his username??!!? That tells it ALL!

excuse me for not reading the latest newsletter on 25psi......all i see of him are his nonsensical posts on how rice owns LS1s. with all the bullshit ive heard about him owning this, owning that, how everything he drives has over 800rwhp, i naturally assumed he was 'serious' on the Enzo.
