Suggestion

I heard he moved to Georgia, USA under the fake identity of an ex-Marine and has been bilking the 996 community by using his insider knowledge to position himself as the foremost authority on the very engine he purposefully introduced flaws in to assure a wealthy "retirement".

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

20 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 7Original post

Great!!!! so we can say the 996 was assembled in Germany with Chinese components!!!

POST 8Original post

The question I'd like answered is how long it took to take the 996 from prototype, to the first car landing on a showroom floor.

POST 9Original post

^Clearly^ not as long as it should have taken - at least as it relates to the engine.

They had the worlds largest R&D team....

That's because he is probably buried out back in a shallow grave.

I think it's also pretty clear that the bean counters won out over the engineers when it came to the M96.

POST 14Original post

I heard that for this guys next interview he will allow 996 owners to line up and kick him in the nuts. Is this true?

POST 15Original post

Quotes source post: 12565503

Thinking...but I'm no "code breaker". The only major implication/conspiracy theory I've come up with is that, with such a large R&D team of "cracker jack" engineers they must have known that the imsb design would not hold up, prior to the rushed release of our beloved yet much maligned 996?

Too many cooks in the kitchen ruins the stew!

Wow...that seems like a rather bizarre arrangement. I'd like to meet whoever negotiated that deal...

POST 19Original post

Its a joke. He's referring to the customers. Anyway, who's first in line for the nut kicking?

POST 20Original post

"Its a joke. He's referring to the customers." Ah...the "software" R&D model...
