Congratulations, that's the dumbest thing I've read today.

What part of that confuses you? I'm just pointing out that someone with no mechanical knowledge buying a used car with aftermarket forced induction is a bad idea. Not being able to handle small issues on your own with a project like that is a recipe for disaster, or a giant money pit if you have to pay labor for every little issue.

Let me guess, you're a "drop it off at the shop and write a check" kinda guy?

You sure did bitch about having to work on your car or it being down a lot to have that kind of holier than thou attitude

What holier than thou attitude? I’m trying to keep the op from opening a huge can of worms if he has to pay labor for every little thing. You feel differently. Ok, great. Some dude on the internet disagrees. Cool.

He installed one of the first boosted kits for the Z himself. I'd say he had every right to bitch and moan about the effort he gave to help pave the way for the products and information we have available now. OP is clearly not using any of that information.

Chuck doesn't mince words so he's not exactly polite. But there's no need to be passive aggressive; just call him an azzhole. He's used to it so he doesn't mind

That's fair. I know he's been around the platform and knows what he's talking about, but not everyone has the space, time, equipment, or some combination of those to do everything themselves, so to say they have no business even owning said car because they have a shop do the labor is ridiculous. It will make it more expensive and time consuming, but I'd expect OP knew that going in.
