O, you guessed it --- ATS Twin or Triple Carbon... I guess the Mynes crew brain-washed those guys in Japan also... the Mynes invasion is only beginning ... prepared to get brainwashed....
Warr... you seem to have a lot of sheat against Mynes... I don't know you and (don't care to meet you, either)... Why don't you get off your high horse and shut your trap. Did we kill your pet lizard in a previous life or something? You push your Warrtalon package on other people, and we don't go around bashing your sheat... just let people decide on what they want to get.
Have you had an ATS Twin or Triple clutch in any of your cars before? If not, then your expressed opinion should be taken with a "grain of salt." We have had two Exedy clutches (both blown btw) before going with the ATS Triple Carbon... so our recommendation is based on personal experience and facts. Unless you have had experience with ATS, you shouldn't be so quick to pass on your biased judgement. And no, we are not sponsored by ATS; we just like to recommend good products when we see it...
Yours truly,
Mike @ Mynes

Shut my trap? Wow, I guess that's how vendors are supposed to act, eh?
Find one place where I said the ATS wasn't good. Once you find that (you won't), then we can discuss why it's not necessary for people to go around buying Carbon Twins for their barely-modded Evos. I love how you try to talk about Exedy's blowing up when there are tons, and I mean TONS, of people running Exedy Twins (cerametallic, not Carbon for twice the cost) without any problems or any longevity issues. It's ridiculous how you guys keep convincing all these newbies to get $3000 ATS CArbon Twins when they're by no means necessary.
You don't go around bashing my "sheat" because there's nothing to bash. Basic mods that cost very little all in one package with free shipping and no hassle. What is there to "bash"?
Oh gimme a break, HouseDJ...way to swing from those cajones... How's the Project 11.49 coming along?

The Mynes advice in this case ==> stop waste your time defending your mod's and get some ZZZZZ's... Like i said at the track, a bigger turbo will get you in the 11's easily Good time, btw...
cheers.

When did I say that his gauges have anything to do with making power? I said he spent neary $4000 on all his mods - I didn't specify power mods. I haven't spent nearly $1000 on unnecessary, expensive Defi gauges that could have gone to more power mods, but he has. HouseDJ, what does being sponsored have to do with anything? I am sponsored, and I STILL don't ask for expensive, shiny, blingy things that don't make me faster. I get mods that go fast, then I go to the track and put down good times. If I spent twice the money to go half as fast, it would be annoying.

If people want a quality product, they can have it. We don't force these clutches down their throat... if they don't want an ATS, then they can get an Exedy or ACT. Similarly, if someone like to buy a Rolex instead of a Casio watch, who are you to say what they need or don't need... o, yeah, forgot, people are not smart enough to make up their own minds...
I've been very curteous all this time, just tired of you saying sheat about my company. When your resort to personally attacking my company w/o merit, then it's time to 'shut your trap'... there, i said it again.

How do I act? I dont say things like that to people. I also dont attack Mynes, but I do see an inordinant amount of people buying things they dont need in AZ, such as those ATS clutches. Yes, most people arent smart enough to make an educated decision, so they do what you suggest...
