Throw in some sensationalism, and a ton of bad customer service and you have this thread.

Start a new thread in OT and direct the offender to it with your carefully crafted, yet speculative opinion if you wish to appear smart/clever.
I for one am interested in hearing more about tune changes, as I still have a Visconti tune (do you?), and updates...so if you don't, kindly refrain from posting here.
Gotta be a rule for that...
Don't think he posted since his status changed.

I'm sure he was banned because he broke the Vendor rule that is stickied on top of the forum: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...34&postcount=1

Whether the rule is fair or not, it's the rule.

I don't think anyone mentioned it being unfair. Is what it is.
If that is the case this thread is now pointless and should be locked.

Now that he's gone...let's all be real: the man only knows how to tune boosted cars. Add fuel, add timing, make boost.

Add fuel, increase boost pressure, lower timing at peak torque and certain other areas, make horsepower.

Is that right?

That's why @OrbitalEllipses has a BRZ now. He could never quite figure out why adding timing wasn't working when he was also adding boost and fuel.

Let's trade a bearing-spinning EJ205 for an injector eating BRZ!

Christ you people it's a generalization about the skill level of a tuner who's in question to begin with.

Man, this thread got too serious.

No, I'm going to stalk you and start flame wars in all your threads and thread crap because it's personal to me.




Like a certain tuner we know.
