Jamie, this isn't a slaggin off for you or your products.

But how can you say That NOS is the best, do you have proof ?

IF so can you post it please, as all the test's that we have carried out resulted in NOS not raising the fuel enuff to stop any det with as little as 3 degree's advance.

We are currently running a pinto engine with a 13.1:1 CR at 40 degree's advance. The NOS wouldn't even let the engine run @ 26 degree's before it started to det with NOS. So how can this be the best OB on the market.

Can you publish the test's you have done and backup your claim please.

I think you will find that 60l is less than 16 Gallon too

Ore is a result of mining, most commonly metal, and not a term to signify wonder or amazement - unless of course it's a particularly huge pile

SO you opinion is based on how it feels, as in if the Ambient temp is lower on a certain day and not factual information.

Ok fair enuff, 12 quid for a .7 RON increase is a good deal.

I have just told you that NOS causes DET on a pinto running 26 degree's advance, not sure how you want me to say the results.

WE THINK WE'VE FOUND THE BEST??? This is my opinion - take it or leave it.
We? - as in more than one? How can it be YOUR opinion then? Surley that should say OUR opinion if there are more than one of you with the same opinion?

Why do you think its the best? how much test equipment do you actually have in your bedroom allowing you to complete tests? Do you think its the best purley cos you sell it?

Here you are jamie
You're not going to start this old chestnut off again are you?

TO QUOTE "We had been looking for an Octane Booster for some time, and think we've found the best! The NOS octane booster is the original horsepower in a bottle."

Notice where it says WE THINK WE'VE FOUND THE BEST??? This is my opinion - take it or leave it.

Why don't you publish your findings for us all to stand in ore at if it makes you feel much better?

LOL Too much time lads!!!

Thanks for that Dingy - SNET bugs strike again.

POC - Problem?

NO one said anything about tests, yes I sell the stuff and yes I use it, I can't see what your point is tbh, this is my opinion as I said like it or lump it.

As I've said time and time again Paul, do I bother you at your job? No I don't because you really are so insignificant to me it is beyond belief, so why not find something better to do with your time, instead of pointing fingers and sniggering behind a PC screen? At the end of the day, I'm doing a good job here and earning good money from doing something I love, maybe this is your problem???

Jamie as a trader people respect you opinion, but surely if your a tuner you would have tested these products, and not just gone on what the car feels like down the street.

If NOS is so good, how come its such a poor RON increase, its basically like using Optimax over SUL, actually its even less than that.

Yet you are saying its the BEST according to you, that's fine mate, just so we Know its not based on facts thats cool.

You forgot to insert a vital piece of info there - have no fear though, I'll sort it for you...

At the end of the day, I'm doing a good job here and earning good money from selling a product that I make great big claims on, without foundation, maybe this is your problem???

Lol @ you guys!

It just looks like a bit of bickering to me and should be in 'dealer and third party' as I don't give a t0ss about this subject. This is scoobynet 'general' you know, for scooby related topics, not a slagging forum.

What's the next reply gonna be? "see you in court"

Could be quite funny, as well.

Nah - Deathmatch would sort the boys from the girls

Only problem would be weight categories - some are obviously a little (lot) more rotund than others.

All proceeds go to charity - £5 per ticket. Gloves and headrests for the girls again

Which suppliers are up for it then?

Only if I can spout on about how my boxing technique is the better than anyone else's, without having to actually provide any evidence to prove it.

Oh, and I want to be able to post every day about it, as well...

Although a deathmatch may be amusing, I don't see any celebs here

Why don't you all just have a nice cup of cocoa and two Broquet tablets and get a good nights rest.

Why Broquet you ask? well it seems to cure everything else

Sue, it is a good way to go about your business is test everything first.

Which is exactly what we have done, as for the marketing, I was asking for proof, nothing more nothing less.

I claim NF to be the best, BUT will stand by that in any test's you want to put it thru.

Sorry i upset you Jamie, not my intension.

"Sue"

Marketing? Fair point - loads of companies claim great things about their products being the better than brand x.

Not sure how you can claim that without testing though?

Still - is good for bragging down the pub isn't it lol

Not sure which "lads" you're referring to about trading? Can't be me as I've had nothing to do with any parts company since Feb...

This is the one of the good things about scoobynet - the ability to hurl abuse whilst being safely hidden by a fake identity lol

Green eyed monsters? All I can see is a brown nose from your post lol
