Yeah it only takes 4 hours to sift through all the crap that comes along with it. You don't need to find it for him but you could at least guide him to it. It really turns people off to this forum when the first question they ask gets them burnt. If its somebody whos posted 500 times asking the questions then I can see it.

Really though, It does clog up the threads but to drive a new guy away for a mistake (I don't he was being malicious when he asked) just gently guide him. Enough said.

yup add this thread to the pile of wasted threads to sift through.

All of the "elite search gods" need to back the hell off and quit being asses about this stuff. Notice he has not posted again... Way to lose a member, guys.
Relax. It's just a forum..

What if he did search for "Greddy Full Auto Turbo Timer Install on Mazdaspeed" which will not provide results? You don't know that he didn't search, so assuming he lied was not cool. I swear, you used to be a hell of a cool guy on here but since you've started modding your car, you act like an arrogant little punk who needs someone to put their foot up your ass. Stop with the attitude. Who knows what that member could have brought to us like many others like (mainly DaveB, 1st MP3, ForceFed, etc). What if you would have told THEM to go search like that and they never came back. Would they still develop the products? Possibly. Would we hear about them? Probably not.
Just think before your arrogant ways speak for themselves.
Thanks, and no hard feelings cause I'll probably meet you in person Monday night if you go the Dallas meet. :D

Sam instead of being annoyed.. perhaps you could make suggestions. So here is my suggestion. Maybe some of the people who are really dedicated to this forum could get together and help branch out on mazdamp3.com and maybe add some tutorials or something..like, installing turbo timers, boost controllers, and even something as simple as gauges. Also maybe a section for MSP aftermarket parts that have just been released.. or some kind of list of all MSP aftermarket parts that we know of.
Just a suggestion. ;)

Yeah thats the ticket. All somebody has to do is add alot of the stuff we talk about but gets lost into the black hole of threads to the How To sec. Oh were being productive now.

I'm glad you tried to make an example out of those.. When actually it just goes to prove my point. Back then, you were more than willing to help and even offered to directly help another member install his. Now it's just "Do a search, dumbass. I've said it before, so bow the fuck down and look for it"...
That's lame.

doesnt matter they all hook up with the same 12v wires and e brake release. same concept same thing. no threads about apexi timer? im sick of this defending people who are too lazy to search.

I bet it would've taken the same amount of time to look for the link of a post you made as it did to flame him.

Alright do you think he knew that off the bat. He is not the all knowing guru of all things tuner, like yourself. I think you need to unplug and get some real social contact. Get some ass or something cause you are way to harsh and spend way to much time being like that. Its not healthy. And by the way you'll find that every time some bitches about noobs not searching those of us that aren't so angry mention that they need to calm down.
Drink a beer and realize that its all good.

I don't want to continue this as I plan on coming up Monday. Certainly don't want to have any bad blood between us.
