Re: Is Tom Wong an STS Dealer?

This is the most cryptic vendor dispite I have ever seen.

Re: Is Tom Wong an STS Dealer?

Anyway!

I've deleted most of my post assaults due to it is my ideals that are the problem here. I would like to think people aren't B.S.'g me, but that is, of course, not realistic. If I wasn't so romantic about my Vette I would have locked things down better and got my expectations down in writing.

Live and learn.

Re: Is Tom Wong an STS Dealer?

I didn't read through every post. Tom Wong is a stand up guy and with out a shadow of doubt a great tuner. One of the NW top 3 tuners. Why this guy is trying to imply something else I don't know, but I can assure everyone reading along that Tom gets the job done, and really all that's ever come out of his shop is fast cars tuned to perfection. One of only a select few that would ever work on my Z06, and many others feel this way.

Re: Is Tom Wong an STS Dealer?

Well its true you originally recommended him to me Robert, but, I guess you don't want to hazard a guess to my questions either!

"IF YOU GET IT IN WRITING YOU DON'T NEED CORRECT ANSWERS" I'm sorry, but, having a lot of work done on a car makes you sensitive to B.S., but solvable.

(The PCV system is a pain in the ass and one I wasn't knowledgable of and again it should have been solved by him when it first blew the dip stick out in my test run when he said, 'I forgot to push it down'.) And he still contends that blocking off the valley vent under boost works as in my/his original STS set-up.

Re: Is Tom Wong an STS Dealer?

I am really sorry you had a bad experiance. Still it dosen't change what i said. I don't know the whole story nor do I want to get into it in any depth, as both of you are stand up guys. We are all human, and what ever happened i am sure nothing bad was intended from either end.

Re: Is Tom Wong an STS Dealer?

Also, FYI!
The 99 Corvette Tom turbo'd had methanol which reduces detonation and Blowby! IE Ralph at Extreme Motorsports has a C5 running on E95 with all his venting blocked off because he says he get '0' blow-by!
