you really have no idea buddy! I was calm, patience and never even thought that I would be making these posts here till recently I find out how these guys really are. It'll be hard to let go after losing a few grand on a POS kit.
I'll be sure to stop anyone that is interested in their from buying it particularly in the G37 community!

I understand most of you guys are all internet buddies but putting it up for sale in this forum without full disclosure of all the problems was kind of shady in my opinion....
I'll edit this because now i see there is mention of the problems in the for sale thread, but prior to about page 6 on that thread it was in like-new condition with "no problems".

Is that why you put it up for sale in the private classifieds on this site? I thought it was funny that just about everyone knew you had problems with the kit but nobody said a damn thing in the for sale thread except me...

I didn't think it was shady in the least bit. Just about everyone on these forums who is actually serious about FI understood what was going on in Weiboys situation. I don't personally believe there's any problems with the kit as many people have already made clear in the past. It's stillens tune that is cause problems and stillens tune is required on the kit in order for him to get a CARB sticker if it ever passes. There is no point in Wei keeping this kit and custom tuning it to run proper to drive in fear of being pulled over in the state of CA by police, to have to rip it out of his vehicle because it is not CARB approved. That's a big investment to have to remove. There are plenty of people running custom tunes with stillen components and they're fine.. But other states don't require smog and CARB. Stillen promised a kit that will be CARB approved and that didn't happens.
You've got some reading to do. There's plenty of threads out there describing Weis problems. I think its more software than hardware related. Anyone serious about buying something like this should do their HW. IMO nothing has been hidden, it doesn't have to be posted in the FS section too. But he did mention that the kit is great for those looking to run a "custom" tune because the CARB certificate is nontransferable from stillen.

Furthermore, there's no certainty the problems are related to the tune, the kit, or his car. We may find that out in a month when the GTM kit gets installed, but there's no way to tell right now based on the information we have.

All I know is that if you bought a SC kit that the seller told you was like new and had no problems and then found out the seller had nothing but problems for 6 months prior to the sale you'd probably be a little pissed off whether it was related to the tune, the hardware, the install or whatever is irrelevent.

^^ Haha, sounds like it. But i'm pretty sure WeiBoy ain't the kinda guy who would sell you his stuff without explaining whatever you wanted to know from him.
He's been a straight up guy in this forum, and i believe he didn't want to bad mouth Stillen at first when he had his S/C for sale. But i guess Stillen's got on his nerve when they started to mess with his potential customers. That is probably why he didn't answer most of the questions on the FS, but i am pretyy sure he gets lots of PMs asking him about that. Which he probably would answer. If he was trying to scam, he wouldn't be here writing all these.
