The highly unprofessional Steve (the "ripper off-er") Colletti (part 5)

Here is another lie Steve (the "ripper off-er") Colletti told the BBB.

"We ultimately achieved 340.86 HP and 405 ft-lbs of torque at the rear wheels (that is, AFTER the power has been transmitted through an automatic transmission and the remainder of the powertrain) as measured by a dynamometer. This means we achieved the goal."

This is an outright lie. Steve (the "ripper off-er") Colletti had dyno-ed my car and sent me a horsepower chart showing 285HP was the maximum they achieved. [Remember, Steve (the "ripper off-er") Colletti had assured me that he could get around 500HP. And from a previous post, I showed a quote from GM High Tech Performance magazine that 400-500 HP is not too difficult in the hands someone that knows these cars.] In an email I sent him, I told him the 285 horsepower seemed low. His reply was basically that a Grand National mechanic can tune it but he can't. This means he never should have accepted the job in the first place, and to me, it shows he was just greedy for money.

Steve (the "ripper off-er") Colletti said he had reached the horsepower goal. He used the excuse that he reached the goal at the flywheel instead of the rear wheels (which is still a lie anyway from the dyno chart). When I came to Steve (the "ripper off-er") Colletti, I told him I wanted around 500HP and he said he could do it. He knew it was Rear Wheel Horsepower that I was talking about. Everyone that is a car enthusiast knows what I am talking about as well. When we talk of horsepower ratings, it is at the rear wheel and not the flywheel. When we speak of flywheel horsepower, we will specifically state that, otherwise it is implied it is Rear Wheel Horsepower. Even cars sold today have horsepower ratings at the rear wheel and not the flywheel. Steve (the "ripper off-er") Colletti is not only unprofessional, he is unethical.
