Alex, you're absolutely correct, the stock pulley is pressed on, just like the way we pressed ours on. We never claimed to be mechanics, however we did say we would oblige and bring our own mechanic.

 

Sorry if I lost you somewhere.

I guess we never posted here that we tuned a Virage because A. It's just another DB9/DBS and B. I'm not arrogant enough to assume that just because it was the first Virage we tuned, that it was the first one in the world.

 

This is the most ridiculous statement you could make, sorry.

Looooool. Really. You advertise any new part, no matter how small or for what car. And then you "forget" this. Sure.
As long as you believe it yourself, all is fine.

 

Dialling in the optimal AFR at WOT and open-loop on the dyno is not difficult. Achieving smooth, seamless operation at part-throttle under closed-loop conditions is where a lot of tuners fall down. Thanks for qualifying your statement though.

I don't need to believe it, it is a fact, as John Ryan confirmed. Remind me who you are again and why you're attacking me? Plant.

 

Stuart, you are being trolled and feeding him.

 

Agreed. A little Googling turns up very similar posts involving ETG on other forums. This thread should be allowed to die.

 

Fair enough I will sign off... Mods, if you feel like locking this thread?

 

Sure, lock the thread. The drama is too much for the help and civility this site usually provides. Hang in there Stuart, we're the 99% that are in lock-step with you!

 

I was referring to montyfd not the vendor battle. montyfd is just being a troll. I have popcorn for the vendor battle

 

Yes, the thread went past informative and reached argumentative. Time to lock it and let it die

So other tuners must be stupid as they have to invest in expensive dynos do develop new tunes in detail while you are able to confirm the changes with your butt-dyno. Respect!

I have no problem if its something that was developed before. But if its something new and you rely on your feeling when driving a car instead of bullet-proof numbers, this is not professional.
Part throttle is easy, the O2 sensors will protect you. WOT is a different storry. There you are in open loop and have no control from O2 sensors.

But maybe you are only a reseller that does not write his software. Nobody can blame you then for not using a dyno to develop something. Telling stories about "live tuning on the road" will be the best option in that case.

Edit: i was just looking at your website. Is there a reason why you dont give your adress there?

 

I have been reading this thread and cannot understand why something like an ECU tuning chip could become so contentious and generates so much mutual recrimination.

I am interested in an ECU tune for my car but there is not much information here about such technical matters. Maybe somebody can post something about that.
