Not sure if this has been posted or not but I wanted all Camaro5 to know that we have lost one of the great ones Roger Hepp screen name Roger Ramjet passed on Tuesday. Roger was one of the great ones he was the nicest guy you could ever meet and one of the smartest cars guys I have ever had the honor to meet. I first met him after seeing his thread Stop the Drone-Helmholtz style and found he worked at a shop local to me SM City Motorsports hear in So. MD. He then had a hand in tuning my new Street Glide which runs great. Then I took My Camaro down there for some minor work and he drove it and asked if he could look at my tune. Well they tell me at the shop that he spent well over 10 hours working and tuning my car with great results. I cant say enough about this man I only knew him for a short time but he made an impression on me. Kinda guy that is very smart but is willing to talk to someone and try to dumb it down for them did it for me alot. Roger you were the MAN AND YOU WILL BE MISSED!!!!!!

Very sad, when I read the heading first thing I thought of was the Helmholtz thread, led me to installing Jpipes on my previous camaro and now I am getting solo J-pipes to add to a muffler delete. Really Really sad to hear this. rest in peace Roger!

Name was Hepp? In Maryland? He didn't have a relative named Scott, did he?

Regardless, I'm sorry for the loss of your friend.
