In the event I have to go back to the dealer they shouldn't be able to tell that the computer was touched. NyRsNy has been flashed back to stock successfully and yeah he's 100% right, the district rep with go through the computer with a fine tooth comb to see if it has been altered. I here what your saying Sic and I do appreciate the info all good points from everyone, but I do have my answer now. I just have to be alot more carefully in the future with these cars and realize you gotta pay to play.

Wait so are you saying that your car didn't have the stock map on when you took it to the dealer now? Or you think the sticker tipped them off?

I had the stock map but it wasn't the stock map for that car I guess. The looked at the sticker and what was on file with Mitsu..since it denied match up..they denied it. I won't be going back to that dealership for anything major..or minor for that matter..those guys are douche bags. Before they even took the motor apart they wanted to accuse me of running NOS..wtf!?

All I can say is wow.

Am I the only one that feels the OP is just "taking it" and accepting it without putting up a fight or even complaining as loud as any of us would be?

That part makes me think he's guilty, and he knows it. No one has their sports car motor destroyed, then says "well maybe next time I guess".

Its sad to hear about reps voiding out warranties left and right. Something just feels fishy about this thread is all. He's too unbothered which comes off odd to me. Maybe he has millions, or we didnt hear all of the conversation between him and the dealer.

Either way.... Good luck man.

Wow.

This is what i understand from you ImsoevoX.

The dealer denied warranty.

They will let you trade it in for a huge loss.

They in turn will either call Mitsu and say the engine crap and get a free engine, or greatly discounted engine.

They will sell it as a used car and make huge profit.


If i was you, i skip all that and have a shop just do the work and put some better components on the engine.

Best of luck.
