Was this a joke? I sensed no worry in his post..no photos, detailed description, no follow up...seemingly pointless "evo stolen" thread

 

That's where I was getting at with the immobilizer enabled or disabled question. It's impossible to start the car without the correct keys, unless they just straight up flat bed' his car.

 

Not impossible if they bring a ECU with the Immoblizer disabled.

Y'all cold man. I think maybe he's just disgusted and decided to post being more cathartic then actually asking for help because he feels its just gone.

LOL. Damn y'all are harsh sometimes.

 

If they bought a unlocked ecu it would prob run like *** and if they had the skills to tune it they probally wouldnt' be out stealing cars.
What worries me is my car came with an AEM I bought a stock IX ecu but had to unlock it to use it.
How do I go about rechipping this new ECU with my key? The guy that sold me the ecu doesn't have the vin or anything useful info to give.

 

A good base map won't run like *** regardless of mods as long as you weren't trying to drive it like a bat out of hell (don't ask me how I know).

 

If I was an insurance adjuster and I saw this thread Id be suspicios LOL. Owner calls it gone before its even found.

I know how it feels tho, I had a car stolen once. Worse feeling ever being a car guy.

 

I don't know... If my Evo ever gets stolen. I don't want it back. After some dirt bags have basically destroyed it. What's the point of getting it back? The only case where I would want it back were if it had LOTS of mods on it. And I mean lots of work. But even then, what ever is left isn't going to be worth much. Mods on cars are not ever worth much to begin with except for the fact they are gone I understand that; but lightly modded or not modded..Why get it back?

I mean I even know people that park everywhere with doors unlocked and key in the ignition. Worst case they have to find a ride home but then have a good excuse to go buy another car.

 

Same here, I love my car to death but if it got stolen I'd never take it back. You could be chasing down endless issues with the car not knowing what happened while the thief was driving it.

 

Well as long as you had insurance there is no worries good luck.

 

bump any update on this? A friend of mine had his GG IX MR stolen last night in Miami
