Someones getting sloppy 4ths I have NEVER ever liked Steve, he's always causing problems on forums, at the drags or in his stolen business. Screwing Dave and all of MP's customers is just inexcusable. Hey Steve if you're such a stand up guy why don't you give Dave his business name back and go find a rock to live under? I remember B370 being here helping people out ever since before I first joined on the network54 forum. Gee, who should we believe, someone whos been helping people for years or someone who F'ed over a respectable business and its customers??

You seem to be real hung up on my looks, I guess you must look at guys and think "damn he's hot" or "geez he's ugly" huh? Straight dudes don't look at guys 'like that', but then again what else would I expect from one of hollywoods customers? BUSTED

Exactly. That's why a golf ball is covered in dimples. It creates a boundry layer of air which allows it to cause less friction which in turn allows it to travel faster.

Yep, don't forget I live in salem oregon <-------------- I must say I'd have to agree

and just where has yamaha claimed this hp # and why would an after market company trying to boost hp claim lower then the manufactor? and, what about people 30 years ago, do you really think they dumber back then? Most didn't use huge nation wide shops to do their modifications for them, they used trial and error and stuck with what worked. Like I said why would most shops who are all about volume go the extra distance when people will buy the run of the mill stuff they put on the shelves. (the extra work hollywood does goes against most business models, and the current trend of streamlining production, why provide extra service without extra compensation?......maybe the guy truely does care about the products he puts his name on...........very odd ) Now gurg, just because some thing doesn't fit neatly into your little box that you consider normal, doesn't mean that is wrong or doesn't work. Instead of me and those that have hollywoods mods constantly trying to prove that they work, why don't you try some of his stuff and prove that it doesn't work or do you plan on trash talking his products that you have never tried with your power of they keyboard. By the way you'll happy to know that most of hollywoods products are very affordable, so in you quest to prove him and countless customers wrong, you'll save a few bucks in attempting it. I wasn't talking about you when I said "side kick" I was talking about his little butt buddy criminalpoet. Most people back then had nothing to test their work on so of course they'll think it goes faster after they spent 80 hours working over the engine. Sure going in and hacking up the ports is going to increase the horsepower slightly, but a real builder who knows what he is doing can increase horsepower dramatically. Who is comparing Hollywood to huge nationwide shops? I am talking about the small 1-2 man shops like the ones around here for instance. The shops that can get you huge power increases for the same price as those hack builders that only give you 1-2HP increases. Whats the point of charging someone for something that is totally useless? I would say that's why most shops don't polish intakes, because they don't want to waste peoples time and money on something that does nothing. You and "those that have hollywoods mods" have done nothing to prove that they work.. Well I take that back, you did dyno your motor and that pretty much proved that his porting is crap. He can give you all the excuses in the world "That IS a good number, you didn't have the right tires, blah blah blah", but face facts, even going off your stock horsepower numbers that would only amount to a 4-5 HP increase out of a FULL port job. I seriously doubt a big bore is going to double your horsepower, but CT's 240 big bore dynoed out at 40HP. That's almost double what your ported motor put out. I Still find it very sad that a builder expects his customers to not only pay for his work, but pay to have it tested to find out if it actually does anything. Hey, why don't you show me some dynos that hollywood has done over the years during his "over 10 years of testing"? Oh wait, they don't exist! So hes just been blindly hacking away at cylinders never testing them, probably never even making a port map or measuring the ports either and charging them to do it. I bet he doesn't even have a degree wheel does he?

Are you gonna run and tell your mommy on me now little boy?

Well since half of your post didn't make any sense I'm just gonna smile and nod

Damn I'm a sexy bitch Are you that guy thats been stalking me? NYUK I'm thinking about getting rid of the polaris and getting another banshee. I know how much you've missed me

Damn biff I thought you were this big mature college student. I guess you're nothing more then an average uninformed immature customer of hollywoods Hollywoods sidekick finally admitted that the polishing does absolutely nothing but look good. So that means Hollywood is charging everyone for something totally useless. Man I want to send him my cylinder now!! Yamaha claims the blaster puts out about 14-15HP at the wheels. I will believe that over some dyno of FMF's since their dynos seem to show that they are the best pipe ever made I don't think you can really compare something they did in the 70's to stuff they do now. There have been a lot of advances in 2 stroke building and comparing Hollywoods work to something they quit doing 30 years ago doesn't really help get your point across. The reason why people don't do it is because its a complete waste of time. I don't want to pay my builder to do things to the ports that are totally useless Here's the statement of a true genius, I'm surprised you didn't call us "poopy heads" somewhere in there :

Funny, but maybe you should go check his forums, he's only doing 2 motors. Exadurating a bit are we? Hollywood has no employees. He just asked one of his CUSTOMERS to open up a second shop with his name. I don't want some guy who has NEVER ported a motor before porting one of my motors. It's just another way for hollywood to scam his customers I guess.

Doesn't make any sense, if it was another basher then how come 'he' has work done by hollywood? You seem so confident that rifling and polishing the intakes work but you have never seen a scrap of proof from HWD that it works and EVERYONE else who knows about motors says its a load of crap, I don't understand how you can still think it works. You have no reason to HWDs IP has matched tesscos on 3 different websites, HWD has reasons to bash CP, he's immature, he's done this in the past to Trenga and the only thing tessco has ever posted anywhere was bashing CP and promoting HWD. It is him, I don't need to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt. I have all the proof I need. If it was somebody using a different ISP then I would believe its not him but all the evidence points at HWD. How do you figure I'm destroying his business? All he needs to do to end all this is show a flow sheet to show that his designs work. Usually I wouldn't care, but this guy goes out of his way to make it seem like he is the best and everyone else sucks so I want to see some proof if he is going to bash everyone else. He won't even TELL people how it works. He just expects everyone to send him money and he'll make them go fast. That might be good enough for you but that sure as hell isn't good enough for me.

Now Hollywood is on his board posting under his made up name about how porting the reedcage is useless and rifling is much better

its not something every builder needs to know. carbon has a harder time sticking to a smooth surface. ive seen numerous people run polished intakes and none of them have any porblems at all with an inadequate burn. i just got back from a friends that just tore down a shee and he took a die grain bit to the bridges and kinda beveled them(nothing catastrophic) but he polished his intakes on his banshee and his previous one and guess what? no probs. no signs of fuel globbing in portions of the head from burns. they run like raped apes too. How much testing have you done to prove that they're getting adequate burn? None? Just because you know some guy who polished the intakes on his banshee doesn't mean you're right. I am into drag racing and if polishing the intakes added HP I would see more people doing it, but the only people I see doing it are the people that need to use a gimmick to sell their products. If you don't understand how a rough intake is better then maybe you should read this: http://www.macdizzy.com/porting103.htm ok find me a dyno sheet showing the RWHP of a shee since your so sure. there is NO WAY a STOCK banshee is putting down 35hp at the wheels. How is it impossible? I bet you wouldn't believe that a built 350 on alky could put out 90 HP at the wheels either would you? Dave Moore has done it and shown a dyno to prove it. Here you go, http://www.teamracersedge.com/dc-banshee.htm the last i checked a tenth of a horsepower isnt a 50% change. I wasn't referring to the .1 HP change between the rifled and stock carb I was referring to the horsepower versus the other ported blasters I have seen. yet youve never rode one or seen one run I don't need to see one run to know that 23HP is pretty pathetic. Maybe we should talk about how Hollywood trys to tell these kids that a long rod increases displacement? Just shows what kind of a scammer this guy is.

carbon will not stick. you try to explain in detail very vividly how a rough intake can atomize fuel/oil better and then ill agree. How often do you see carbon build up in the intakes? How about you read back through this post like I've told you 20 times to see how it atomizes better. Do you you really think hollywood knows something that every other builder doesn't? How about the guys that spend thousands and thousands of dollars on testing and tuning, don't you think they would have tried polishing the intakes once or twice? What makes you think hollywood is right if he has never had his motors tested? That's totally rediculous. If you want to think that top builders who've spent hundreds/thousands of hours testing don't know something then some hack (who probably works out of the back of a van) who has never tested a motor does, then go ahead and do it. Those of us who aren't as ignorant will just have to laugh as we blow by you in a race tell me why you are comparing a RWHP to the crank hp off a shee. any logical person on this forums(which is 99% of the people here) that has dealt with dynos will tell you that there are many variables that determine a dyno output and taking your everyday blaster with the offroad tires on the dyno is not going to give the best number for overall output. i already stated that but i guess it didnt sink in. You only wish that was crank horsepower I could care less what you have stated, some small atmospheric changes aren't going to make a 50% HP difference, so keep trying to make up excuses why HWDs motors are such slugs

If nobody cares about it but us then why do you keep replying with your childish name calling?
