318-is - it solved all the flatspots i had, the car picks up in any gear and revs up to 7000, i used to have to use the gears a lot to get any kind of fun - you should immediatly notice the difference,im very pleased with it!

Hmmm that's interesting.
IF.....if it is true then I don't see why one of the mods can't tell us why. As it would have to be a totally solid desicion by the mods to throw some one off completely.

no i'm not looking for one, but it would seem by going on today that he's way of going about his business has changed dramatically. I mean look at last year and this year at gaydon

I know Si, but basically I don't know who to believe RE: the crank. And I'm not going to make any accusations but everytime I think I have got to the bottom of it somthing else crops up like this thread. Any way it's all ancient history as Ian has agreed to refund me.

Surely if just about every one on here says he had hiches at the beginning but is great now, which seems to be the general consensus of this thread, he shouldn't still be banned?
You can't blame a man for trying to make a profit, but he does sound like a nice guy who would be useful to have around, and I'm sure he could accept that we all buy zone chips to keep the zone going etc............. and he would still get the IS chip business......


Any way I'm rambling no I really must get some work done - I'm banning myself from this thread!!!!!! :mad: :roll: :wink:

he offered the zone the chance to have an iS chip free of charge so they could sell it as well and keep the profit but it wasnt accepted.
There is no reason for him to be banned now and last year at gaydon he spoke to lizzie and was allowed back on but got banned again without a hitch which was odd.

This sounds unbeliveable. 1 it's extremely generous of Jayson and 2 that the zone would turn such an offer down!
I think we should have a poll! :wink:
But I don't know what it should be :roll:

i bought a chip from chipped uk but when i fitted it i had not long since put a 3.64 diff which doesnt do acceleration many favours. car seems better after chip but not a massive difference. i keep hearing about zone chips, what are they like and where can i get one?

I thinkt hat enough is enough on this subject, Jayson and the zone keep their business very separate for reasons that many of you will not know about.

Jayson has his own well established business now and does not need the zone anyway.

What's done is done and no decisions will be changed, end of!
