Yes, I hope it's not a new trend...let someone back-in with a new user name and NO history.
The DP is pathetic

IIRC, Quad was banned for fighting with TTS or TTS customers.
Problem is, many of the old threads were heavily edited, so you have to go on memory.

Reason I ask is that I'm using the Stealth 2 box.... Short of a little timing rattle, this thing has been nothing but good to me. Runs like a raped ape on damn near any tune, and only wrecks trans on tunes over lvl 5
What could they have possibly done wrong that got them kicked. Fighting with Cole IS a losing proposition considering his backing.... That's what did it??
If you go on the place and look up their (Quad's) most recent post, you will see that they are actually NOT a supporting vendor, just a member. Their user title says supporting vendor, but their name is small blue, not the vendor big blue, and there are no vendor links in their avatar area. I think the "supporting vendor" title is a leftover artifact that DP did not change when they were banned.
If you take the time to actually read all his posts over there regarding the ban, I think he pretty clearly states why the about face, and seems pretty level headed and fair to me
Just my .02
I am working on getting the banned members back in is all. My problem over there is 2 people only. I never did a 180.

Quad Bonker is a smart guy and a real diesel gearhead. They actually lost alot of good tech content by canning him, and perhaps stunted the development of Dmax products.
I believe it escalated to the point where Quad threatened someone with a lawsuit. But reading the old posts, it's hard to tell. It was just Tuner Wars gone crazy. He was banned early 2004.
Well I am already back out and in the general members eyes, so what exactly did you want me to work at? You guys have any mod openings? I have some expierence :hug:
Whats with this Jifaire guy being such an ass .
Irritating it is . Josh is the guy cool or is this the norm with him .

Yup that is why he was banned. I'm trying to recall the reason for the lawsuit ,I'm not sure if it was slander? Long time ago. I believe it wasn't one individual but the entire site. I believe it was Nick's attorny friend that told him to turn him off was the best advice. Although Quad was turned off on off on off on like a light switch a few times. :baby:
Quadzilla Performance was back before Nick sold. There has been more than one screen name Quadzilla. I believe Alvin Bonker
D) Quad went just by Quad.
I'm not sure how much was held back with Alvin. Although the bastard stack was a staple for along time for the LB7.
It was a finicky problem although with some trucks and his experiments. From frozen tuners to lost stock calibrations to ghost peddle and mass air sensor codes but man they were some fun times.
Daver was hilarious and boy did he love to break his stones with the 'carrot'. Some of you guys will remember.
Good times

That was a fun little set up!!! Never dynoed it, but I bet it wasn't to far off the " Extreme "..
It wasn't BUT like I stated above their was numerous issues with some trucks. Mine was one of them the Ghost Pedal was the worst
You'd be crusing down the highway at like 70 and it would just drop to idle. The pedal would be dead! You'd have to pull over shut the truck off restart to be on your way.
That sucked!
Any hoo like I said with EFI now the plug and play and down loaders only hold a partial piece of the market. Although I wish I never got rid of mine just for nostalgic reasons.
I gave my Predator away which held my stock calibration so loading the Quad was a big risk. :joker:
Funny story to tell when that happened to me and verbal instructions by Alvin when my truck was stuck in the driveway. Man those were the days
I just looked I still have his cell phone number if he didn't change it. :rofl:
He wasn't a bad guy and he did post one of the funniest one lines ever I thought.
That makes about as much sense as wiping before you poop!
Like I said he wasn't a bad guy,he did get a bum rap at times

Check the supporting vendors list...He IS a supporting vendor and has been since Sept.
That is exactly what has happened to mine a couple of times. I have the banks w/PDA. know how to fix it?
Disconnecting the battery and flashing the lights ,all true.
Quite the joke began about running around the truck ,hale mary's getting on your knees and praying. Hilarious stuff
The Predator saved the day.
Hey this aint technical! :rofl:
No I have no idea how it was fixed. The Quad 215 tune was a ECM downloader calibration. Something must have been found in the program and a table fixed. Funny thing is only SOME trucks were effected. Took awhile to find
Quad gave me a experimental 135 tune once. To this day I never ever had a tune that would come out of the hole llike it. It would burn the tires up ,then it was over.
Good or should I say excellent around town tune stop sign to stop sign.
