Marc, I respect that you came here to tell us about your uncles car issues, but it doesn't do us any good unless you give us (and shiv) more facts as to the circumstances of the melted cats and ECU. THis could very well be the result of the Procede being installed improperly which is not the fault of Vishnu racing. I believe that your uncle had the problem, but help us do something about it at the least. Just coming on the net and degrading Vishnu and Procede does no one any good.
As salacious as it is to think the claim is true, I have to admit it sounds extremely embellished to me. To melt the cats you’d need EGTs so far off the scale that your exhaust manifolds would glow solid orange.

On the other hand I can see a piggyback system damaging the ECU if installed incorrectly or internally defective. Back to lurk mode…

Betting back on topic I understand the PROCede harness has two 3.3k resistors in it to separate the o2 sensor signals. A defective resistor there could cause a lean condition and serious problems like described. It would be nice to test the alleged failed hardware in more detail.

Marc,
I am not accusing of anything. Perhaps something is wrong with my PM box, but I do not have any messages from you. Could you please reply to the message I sent to you?

A dealer will always blame problems on mods, regardless if they are at fault or not.

You haven't been dealing with a reputable dealer(s) if they give you that line.

It really does depend on the dealer; I've found some that are extremely open minded with regard to mods. That said, this story just doesn't make sense. I am not saying Marc is a liar, far from it; I just think there is more to this story that perhaps he doesn't even know.

I don't know why this is so hard Marc. All I'm asking for is his name so I can look at our purchase and callback records.

You had no problem starting an entire thread telling people to stay away from the PROcede and that we were completely nonresponsive to your uncle. Yet, you wont provide his name via PM.

Best Regards,
shiv

Marc just PM the guy the name already and put this to bed man.
Whether his product is good or bad I do not know but maybe just PM him the name to look up the records and make whatever is wrong right if it is his fault?
his website is clearly listed in his signature and number to reach him is there as well.
