In the end it all ones down to research and people selling the product and know what they sell
That is what pay for most of the time
Unfortunately alot know jack
Your ecu was then sent to tuner who u had it with
Last week he disabled security etc etc
We did not want to waste more money to tune yr ecu
Since it was goin there anyway
Then something happened between the dyno place and shop who built your car
So they got Justin to retune it which we had to charge 200
Because yr ecu was licensed to his software
And not ours and I guess things had to happen fast
So we were only ones there to help the mechanic
Now u took it to dyno place and they had to put it on dyno again and do something to the tune
Now they would not have charged u to license it again
But most probably for dyno time and tune adjustments
Anyway I had disagreement with your mechanic over yr car as we spent way longer than expected because your body harness from Perth was totally wrong and we spent 3
Days fixing it which we should not have and this Is y I won't do anymore work for him and from now on

I think people should do more research and ask more questions about what works and what doesnt
Fair enough Jimmy, but why has it taken so long for anyone to mention this to me. This is the first I've heard about any of this. Being the owner, I thought that someone might have said something to me before this instead of being kept in the dark for almost 12 months.
