Yup, after reading all about it, I am steering far, far, far away from them. I'd much rather my money go to the dudes at FT86 SpeedFactory :party0030: - just sayin'

I actually looked at this thread again from a computer and not my phone and noticed the pic @nelsmar took in the original post of the oil on the hood.
Amazingly composed and says a lot.

subaru , oil dripping over the logo which look like tears, good lighting, good depth of field. Nice!

LOL thanks! I was drunk as hell and trying to get my creativity on while waiting for the tow truck. I had just spent an hour scrubbing engine bay to remove oil...

But it will have to be a permanent change, not just a temporary effort, and we can only tell if it's genuine or temporary with time.

One mistake of this magnitude is more than enough to sway into me never dealing with this vendor or his alter egos.

Change is nice but I am betting a five digit investment on his ineptitude.

After a detailed talk with Toni, he recommended that I change my fuel pump and injectors. It took some growing pains to get these right and Toni was gracious enough to make a video for us!! The first couple files before E85 ran ok but once the fuel pump and injectors were installed it was a little harder to tune. I thought I had issues with the belt slipping and the pulley made out of plastic! So Toni comes to Houston to visit for a dyno day and he dials in my tune perfectly without any issues what so ever!!! He even suggested that I try the smaller pulley 3.12. Best run I had on the bigger pulley was 320whp. So One week later, I received the new pulley and installed it and took the car to get it dyno tuned at Phasetek. In less then 3 runs, Toni had the car dialed in perfectly with no issues what so ever! I'm am very happy with the level of support I've been getting with him and he way over delivered on his promises! Last dyno run was at 346 whp and 246 wtq! Toni was very flexible with his appointments with us as we did the remote tuning and also send him files from the dyno for comparison!!! It is a long tedious process to go thru but the results way exceeded my expectations!!! I hope that he will able to provide quality support to all affected and turn things around....

Looks about the same as what I saw before, so unless i missed the original post before the edit i don't know if much was changed in the post.

sorry, maybe I shouldn't even have chimed in as I really don't know much other than what you and others have posted.

I read that someone thought he was making false accounts and talking himself up.
I didn't recognize this user, who only posted 10 times in a year, and thought this could be the case.

side note, I really commend your positive attitude through this...

To paraphrase a line from Firefly: "this engine's burning a hole in my hole" :bonk:

I'm on my phone so if I make mistakes, blame Sportsguy83
