I still got three updates (iirc) as Bill made sure the AM didn't move at all and cleaned up a few, exceptionally mild, drivability issues.
I've seen a lot of guys say they are happy with JV's work, but I'm pretty sure every one of them have had decent gas available to them. If someone falls under that catagory then they should be fine with JV. But for everyone else, I wouldn't let him anywhere near my car.

Thanks for offering something more substantive than simply accusing JV of being the anti-Christ. I can't agree or disagree with your critique because I just don't have enough firsthand experience with his and others FA20 tunes. I have 93 available everywhere I go and I'll probably stick with JV until I have good reason not to.

Very safe IMO since it's just a stage 2 header tune. I'd worry more about the KC and AM if I was FI. How accurate is the knock detection plug-in for Torque? I could log that but I don't have a ECUTek cable. I had my car dyno tuned at a local shop.
