Well perhaps the benevolent Mr. Justin Bingley (a.k.a Shestica on this forum) could comment on his libellous comments in this thread (post no 8) directed at the VOC, given he is so keen to avoid / resolve "legal" implications: http://www.vpcuk.org/forums/showthread.php?t=14084

What members should ask themselves, is Don Kalmar Union a moderator or owns VOC? Or do (usernames in VPCUK) Volvotuning, Justin and that old lady (forget her username) have any links to what they are selling? How unbiased will they be? When I read stuff at VPCUK, I get the feeling its nothing but a place to sell RICA and no one else can have a say about any other tuner. Just looking at volvotuning reply NO:2 of that thread. Don't start the nonsense???? I thought it was a forum and if that person wanted to use MTE, so be it. Whats so nonsense about where he choses to spend his money and why he thinks so.! I for one am happy with VOC. Its fair. cheers |

If that's what Justin really wants to think...?! Seems a crazy suggestion, to me.

Seen similar things on VAG forums about REVO et al - entertaining but just creates bad feeling and puts people off tuning.
If you tune or map a car, the bottom line is you have to accept the engine and car in general will be under more stress and things are likely to break or wear prematurely. It's not often in life you can have your cake and eat it too. I've tuned cars up before, spent alot of money and came to the conclusion that if you want a fast car, buy a fast car to start with |

The link you posted about taking used of a similar kalmarunion.co.uk URL is another piece of evidence as to the mindset of these people. Isn't that illegal in some way to get a url thats very similar to a competitor website name? Perhaps now its not been renewed. But still!. In the end if anyone tells me about how good that tuner is or the product, here is my answer. Taken from the maestro himself,.. "Thank you..but I don't believe you". On that bombshell, I will end it here. cheers |

Fascinating - glad my car isn't turbocharged.............
One of the VPCUK threads was started/caused by my old mate "the troublemaker" - Dave did you really mean to drop yourself in it quite so tactlessly? Get in touch mate as it must be beer time and I might not be working in MK for much longer (will explain over a few beers - somewhere near the station as I want to keep my licence )

Well, here is yet another quote from Mr. Justin Bingley from one of the posts which has now been deleted:
Quote:
http://www.vpcuk.org/forums/showpost...99&postcount=8 (from http://www.vpcuk.org/forums/showthread.php?t=22919) So Turbo Technics get a slating (totally unsubstantiated too!) which could impact on their business (especially since some Volvo owners do have their products) but that's obviously perfectly acceptable to Mr. Bingley given he has done nothing about it......is this not libellous by his own definition? Double standards??? SURELY NOT!!! The extent of hypocrisy which exists on some forums is truly astounding. But then again reading this post, in the context of what has been said, clarifies lots of things I guess: http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showpo...7&postcount=12 (from http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showth...echnics&page=2)
