Massive loss there... he has helped me for free plenty of times. The only time payment even came up was when I asked first, regarding a fully custom tune for my car.

How is your car running? Mine feels great, even i don't feel the need of Final gear swap anymore.

My car is still on the factory tune, though this will likely be changing soon. I still haven't committed to buying ANY of the parts (header, FF kit, Tactrix/OFT/EcuTek) to actually use his services because I'm cheap, lazy, and want to hit 250k km on the OEM/stock set up before adding power .

However he helped me with ROM definitions to modify my stock tune to raise the idle RPM for my motor mounts (causing very bad vibrations at stock idle RPM).

I propose to Ban every moderators in here (since they are basically inexistent and useless) and unban Steve and promote him as only Administrator

Shame on you ft86club

This is pretty shocking; it was a blessing to have someone like that on the forums.

Careful guys!
I have referred literally hundreds of people with issues to Steve and his sage tuning advice will be missed but...

Forum Rules:

Don't want to see escalating bans!
