was looking for something on the north side. we went by HPe due to the fact there website said they were open. the 2 guys there called me an idiot, and that they were closed. a friend and i took our cars there and were looking for 2-3 pulls each. it takes 30 seconds to delete a line of code from a website and the guys there said they havent been doing stuff on saturdays for awhile now. this is just my personal experience with the guys there today, not a reflecrtion on anyone else, or there work. but my friend and i will take our money to conleys on monday, i am shure they will take money from "idiots" :vent:

eh you cant catch every thread they post here. and it takes 30 seconds to delete a line of code saying their saturday hours. the real problem came when the guys who were tehre called me an idiot for showing up at their door for a dyno ona MTI built 427 vette ( 2002 Z07) and my SS. oh well we gave out 150$ to a bmw tuner shop near by. hell the guy there stayed late and talked shop with us.

Someone at my shop actually called you an idiot? I find this very hard to believe since nobody employed by me is even there on Saturdays. Possibly some of the machine shop guys were there working, but I can't imagine them saying anything even remotely like that. They're all much too calm and quiet for that.

I apologize about the website, someday we might have a new one. Call us if you need something, I don't keep up with all the internet stuff because well, just don't have time for it. 281-448-1300.
