Honestly, some of the posts on this forum make me cringe. EDIT: In case it wasn't obvious, John, this was aimed at the people bashing you. :P

Back order means back order. The wait is worth the $200 savings on the kit.
It will come. Bitching doesn't speed things up. It's not like it's on back order from Visconti. It's on back order from ECUtek.

Yea all i have to say is thanx john. I know this is not the only forum nor is it the only cars you deal with. I was one of the testers and whenever i had questions john was there to answer them. And all jokes aside everytime i met up with john his phone was going bananas and i didnt even think the group buy even started yet lol...i cud only imagine now lol. I even wanted the e85 tune and i live 20 mins away from john and havent bugged him once because i understand that the cables are sold out and i see how overwhelming this got. Just want to say thanks for contributing to the frs/brz platform.:happy0180:

Im sorry but the bitching is getting just as old as the kissing ass. as others have said, no offense to john, but telling him how awesome he is and gargling his balls isn't going to make it come any faster (no pun intended), just like the bitching won't.
Everyone relax. there are plenty of cables out there. lets take care of ourselves until john can start to take care of us again. Find someone in your area, and meet up with them. again i am in NC if anyone is in the area.

Flashed car, had a good run today, must say it is has killed the dreaded dead spot in the low rpm, still got another 1000km to go before I can past the 4k mark.
Only think I was a bit worried is at 86mph, it sounded like the injectors where working, could be me. John will send you a data dump tomorrow. P.s. Lewis Hamilton won the Italy F1 :> |

I've been trying to wrap my head around how much John is actually doing for us. Yeah, there's the NA tune that he's been working on for quit a while. But there's also the bullshit he put up with when he first introduced EcuTek to the forums, the ridiculous hours he's keeping, an E85 NA tune, a 100 octane NA tune, working with a cold air intake vendor to sort out an issue they should have test for in the first place, tuning two different companies turbo kits that we know of, flying back and forth across the country, he had input into Crawford's build though he's mentioned nothing of it yet.... I'm willing to bet I'm missing some.
And this isn't the only platform he's supporting!! While I can see some validity in the argument that what he's making is enough to support another person, it's only valid if you don't look at the full situation. First off, training the other person would take time that he doesn't have right now. Second he's not bringing in that kind of money or orders every month, this is a singular situation and when it gets cleared up he would have very little use for another employee. Third, even if he did have enough orders to maintain another person, this is one of the businesses that will probably find itself circling the drain if it expands. It relies on his experience, knowledge and dedication. He'll never be able to find someone to match that combination and afford to pay them. Maybe he should have closed down the group buy at 15 people, but he was trying to offer the deal to as many as possible. He was very upfront,even from the beginning, that as the list got longer the delays would get much longer. Can we please just act like adults? I just hope John is able to keep a thick skin about all this. BTW, I'm in Halifax, NS if anyone needs to borrow my cable. |

I'll be waiting patiently at the bottom of the list, the spot I've earned for asking questions. If anyone here was wrong in questioning your motives and methods the mods would have gotten involved. Guess what, they haven't. Good Luck to you sir. |
