Ok, then why was the tune not correct?. Why was it too rich?. If as you say the engine couldn't care what car it is in, together with Dan's claimed expertise, then he should have got it right, first time...it's that simple. That's why we pay a premium to suppliers who are supposed to know what they are doing

if you used common sense you would know (and i am sure you do) that you couldnt ever send a spot on mail order tune. It would always have a bit of fat in it to run on the safe side, otherwise you would be up for holed pistons etc... ( but i guess that from mail order to full tune and a diff of 6rwkw in your book is an incorrect tune)

and i pointed out the engine doesnt care what car it is in because you seemed to make a point that cause it was in a mail order cobra that it would be different to mail order commodore cause the commodore came of the showroom floor where as the cobra didnt.


I have purchased a tune for my L76 and paid less than half the reported $800.00 cost of the tune in question - thats what a mail order should be... the price for this tune in this thread has ranged from 400 to 600 to 800.. it just keeps growing so that is why i only take the "what he said, she said" of what the customer asked for and was given with a grain of salt.

this far into this thread i would also like to point out that i am not a fan of Dan at chipmaster. I have not had any good or bad experiences, my gripe with this thread is more about the rubbishing of someones business/livelihood.. which is still going on in your post.

Fine be angry that it was locked. tell people to be aware and to look out for tuners that lock them or use proprietary software to read/write to them but dont bring their names into it and drag them through the mud. as you have just pointed out it has cost him possible income for basically someone feeling they didnt get what they paid for when they did and that was a mafless mail order tune with vats removed. (plus he was willing to put back to standard so it could be tuned else where)
