Please show me where I said that

I DID mention that i will soon be using my truck to compare an assortment of intakes.... You know, a single vehicle as a control to conduct testing on? Very similar to the test I had presented in this thread, one truck, one dyno, multiple parts and their effects, but on my truck because it is more modified and should find limitations in the parts better.
...your truck is on larger off-road tires, and according to you, we can't trust those numbers to be accurate. Are you going to put stock tires on your truck and do runs as well? You absolutely started a comparison thread, but according to you, all comparisons can't be compared?

You know the result you want (everybody to say "mods are worth it!") and anybody saying anything else is going to be met with resistance from you.

You are right. This thread is not for intelligent people.

Vitis805, this thread is pretty simple to understand, I don’t know why you’re so confused.
Loweredon33’s said some information about parts, posted some dynos and that’s it, you can read them and see what some parts do and what others don’t. Don’t over complicate this thread. He’s not asking for anything from the people in return.
Right? Thanks man!

I specify what tires I am on to explain the reason why those numbers look lower than other trucks with similar mods but lighter tires would show. I never changed the tires during any comparisons posted here. Once again you are acting like I am comparing this truck to another truck and I am not. This truck has heavy tires, it will have lower numbers, I'm pointing it out to be transparent. You are simply looking for new ways to defame me but are really bad at it and it's getting to be apparent that you're just a bully.

I'm really not, man. People in a chat forum are going to discuss the numbers and hypotheticals all day long, but you clearly got annoyed at that.

Nope, I get annoyed at people putting words into my mouth and trying to negatively spin a very simple post. You do You man, we don't have to be friends, I am not trying to mess with what you know. Maybe I'm completely wrong and dynos don't read power differences on Ford Rangers.... It's just so weird that my dyno works on Mustangs though.

Bro, you put the negative spin from the beginning. "For the naysayers" might have been a bad choice of words. If you posted "Here are dyno numbers, naysayers stay away" then you might have a right for acting the way you did in this thread, but you quite literally were asking for people to discuss your numbers. You are annoyed that we aren't discussing them the way you want.

So what would you like to misinterpret from the post to discuss? The “fact” that I’m comparing some hidden tire change in between dyno pulls? The “fact” that I am slipping a different truck in on everyone when they’re not looking? Or the FACT that every single thing you have misinterpreted from the original post was actually either answered or clarified in the original post or in the many replies to you pointing out that you have misread what I had said repeatedly? It’s funny that as soon as I offer you an answer to your “interpretation” you ignore it and move onto another misinterpretation of my words…. It’s also funny that you are seemingly attacking me for offering information that I or my customers paid for with money not belonging to you on vehicles not belonging to you. The information is just that… if you are actually bringing something to the table then go ahead but all I see are calculated attempts to take something way out of context for the purpose of making me look bad. Once again… what am I doing here that has you so upset?

So anyway, when do you think your fabricated big intake will be getting tested?
Right after I change my tires…?
The shop is super busy right now but we are trying to make time this month to get on some new fun stuff.

I'm not upset, but this paragraph that reads like an angry text from an ex, would suggest you are.

I am completely lost as to what you are on about. You posted unimpressive dyno numbers "for the naysayers", people started talking about them, and your translation to all of that is we are upset and trying to make you look bad?

@importfighter01 explained this very well. If you don't understand it I'm sorry but that's on you and no reason to continue arguing with Mike about it. Best to move on and not hijack this thread any longer.

I'm literally having this same problem on FB about the same exact thing but on my truck instead of this one.
I don’t have a FB account but I used to follow your Ford Ranger Performance Group page by searching it via Google, but looks like it’s locked down now to where you can’t even view it anymore without a FB account. Some good stuff on that page. ?

@AzScorpion I read and understand what importfighter wrote completely. He discussed the numbers (same as me) the only difference is importfighter found them impressive and I didn't ?‍♂which upset loweredon33s and other mod peddlers. I'm a naysayer (based on the posted dynos), but this thread isn't for me, eh?

Change the title.

@Vitis805 - I believe what @Loweredon33s means by “naysayers” was not a reference to anyone here by default, but he mentioned that on the FB group for Ranger Performance that discussing dyno data there devolves into many naysayers chiming in. He is newer to this forum and decided to post his data here to see if it could be of benefit vs continuing a devolving discussion on the FB group. He is looking for community amongst others who want to make their Ranger’s faster. That’s a very small portion of the Ranger owner pool so he was hoping to see who from this forum feels the way he does and engage accordingly.
