I'm sure distance, altitude, temp, addition of restrictive pipes and CAT converters makes a huge difference from the tune Keith did on the Dyno. The pictures of the carboned up black cyl heads is indictivative of the tune being way off, especially on a 40 mile engine.

Then he posts video of breaking the car in on a race track flogging it (all with less than 40 miles.......pretty sure that voids any warranty right there). Also posts pictures of it with no air cleaner over the induction trumpets sitting at the car show (maybe it has some type that is used when running but hard to see in any photos), but if not I'm sure running with no air cleaners certainly doesn't help. But somehow let's blame the engine builder and run his name thru the mud.

Once again the common theme of every one of Damage's threads is to blame someone else. I can fully understand why Keith is so frustrated as money sometime buys arrogance and dealing with some customers isn't worth all the money in the world.
Dude, You are clutching at straws...
