Looks great, but I would be worried about sucking up water with the filters so low. I have a tendency to drive into flooded fields sometimes

If anyone has "B15" issues, PM the forum administrator (me) and we can set stuff straight.

Start crapping in my forum and I'll ban you before you get a second post off.

Thanks

First of all.. I work for Hennessey Performance. This is a build for that shop, and has nothing to do with my old company. This is not for me, or a customer of mine. I am (for all intents and purposes) not in business for myself any longer. I'm simply sharing pics of this build for you guys to check out. Nothing more, nothing less.. You can remove them if you wish.

Second of all.. I do not owe anyone money for parts. My old business (which I am in the process of transferring to another owner) has been idle since July of this year. I have refunded 10+ orders for parts that I had pending. The only thing left that I have to take care of is a few vehicle builds that are close to being finished. Every one of those owners has been given the option to have their vehicle shipped back to them, along with parts if they so choose. None of them have elected to use that option.

Let me tell you guys what's going on here.. Up until July of this year, I've owned/run a solo operation that dealt with Nissan Sentra parts/installs. For 12 years, I've built some wicked cars. My turn around time has always been slow. That's just what it is. So, I catch flack from a handful of people on a car forum that pertains to the Sentra chassis. It's the same old folks trying to stir up drama. Am I perfect? Absolutely not.. but, I do not owe anyone money, nor have I ever ripped anyone off in 12 years of business.

So, make of this what you will.. Just remember that folks who "rip people off" don't stay around long in the automotive performance industry.. much less 12 years.

I won't argue about this here.. I've said my piece and that's that. I'm here as an enthusiast, and I have no reason to defend myself against personal attacks from people who have never given me a dime. So, mods.. you can choose to do what you like. I'd like to continue showing you guys this awesome build (for Hennessey), but that's up to you.

Travis

All in all as it's been said many times over, if you just communicated with the right people, things would never blow up or follow you.
Oh, it will.. Charles quit his job and is actually at SEMA right now. I never was great at managing a business.. which is why I got out of it. It ran me into the ground. BUT, I always had the best of intentions when it came to the way that I did things. Running solo is rough, and in the end it left me with less time/energy to keep up with forums, emails, phone calls, etc.. I just enjoy building/fabbing parts. Hennessey allows me to do what I love, make a decent living, and go home without the stress in the evenings.

Again, I am slowly making right on my outstanding orders.. even though I don't get on the forums, I am still making things happen. It can't be done overnight, though.. and some people don't really care for that. But, it's better than giving up on them completely.

Charles and my wife will right the ship, and all of the great products that I've developed over the years will be more easily obtainable.

Travis
