Never Again!
First of all, kudos to Webby for taking care of all of this. This has been a major league headache for him. I appreciate Webby's diligence in pursuing this matter until the end.

Webby did the same during the TurboMafia fiasco. When I along with others got scammed, Webby took immediate action and helped us to either get our money back, or to cancel orders. He also had us speak to a police detective to give a full report.

I for one feel terrible about what happened. Emmanuel came out with what I would call an innovative product. He thought outside the box and used a CRV intake tube, sectioned out MAF housing and a cone filter. He understood the need for greater air ingestion while at the same time, maintaining driveability and throttle response with a stock MAF housing. It was brilliant. His idea has served as a model for many of us who have fashioned our own intake systems.

It was a terrible travesty what happened next. He either got so far behind on orders, or he was so overcome with greed, that he did not fill orders like he had promised. I don't know if we will ever know his motives. It is too bad really as many people put their trust in him and would have gladly cut him some slack if he had been honest and straightforward and just told people he couldn't keep up with all the orders coming in.
