Another thing to keep in mind is that if you're in Canada, the package could be held up at the border.

LOL I never even noticed he was in Canada, tdot = Toronto USPS is only good as long as it's in the US.
Once it crosses border you will need to go to www.canadapost.ca to track it for the remainder of the trip, assuming the tracking info was keyed into their system and that does not always happen.

On a positive note. Be very happy John chose USPS for shipment to Canada. You will more than likely not have to pay a dime in brokerage fees from Canadian customs. I got my package and I can confirm others from Canada did not pay any brokerage also

I have bought bigger items from other vendors in the forums here and they have used UPS, which we all know is the worst for us here in Canada
I've paid enough brokerage in the last month or two to pay for another tune

I hate UPS

btw it's snowing here, back too my Igloo

The 5$ value on the package helped a lot

Btw i just want to thanks John again. I just received an email from him asking me if the Metric tune update he sent me earlier have been successfully installed. Super customer service !

Keep up the good work !

I just wanted to let you guys know that the newest tune is really rocking. I imagine they'd sell a ton more of these cars if they put a similar tune in from the factory.

Thanks again, John.

Just to mention: I have bought dozens of parts for my motorcycle (some valued over $1000) from US vendors and when ever I can I use USPS and i would say about 20% of the time i get stuck paying custons charges.

USPS's tracking system isn't the greatest, but not once have I had a package go missing.




Oh; and for those of us in Canada who live close to the border, try google-ing "My US Address"

It would be really helpful if those of you that fill out my form fill it out correctly.

"Tune not customized to my vehicle" is ONLY meant for those that actually see this error message. Not because they have some gas gauge cluster issue.

It was a little ambiguous in my head when filling the form. i was thinking that the "Fuel Economy Display" thing was part of the "Customized to my vehicle" . I should have used the "other" Issues field instead.

Sorry for the inconvenience John

Alrighty - I'd like to start a discussion with all of those who have Canadian Cars and are having a RaceRom Gauge problem.

Seems to be a problem from more than one of you so

If you have a Canadian Cluster you should have a tune file like this -

"RR-10895-ZA1J700C-STG1 STOCK INTAKE v1.07 FED-M"


Must have "FED-M" in it.

Basically - what problems are you noticing?

If you dont have the correct tune file I dont' need your input, just need you to fill out the form so i can send you a correct tune file.

Let me know

Thanks

John
