Az3ar came to my dyno day to have Shiv look at his car to address some issues. He had a Check eng. Light and drivability issues like over boost because he tried to set up the factory lines and did not have the boost map tuned in his Xede for his turbo kit. I helped him reinstall his MBC and asked him to wait for Shiv to finish with the tuning so he can address your issues. Az3ar was up set that Shiv did not drop everything and help him. I told him to hold on for Shiv to finish tuning the customers with dyno time, but he chose not to do so and left saying he will find another.

I just wanted to make things very clear. The car was running fine except for a Check eng. Light that had really nothing to do with the tune or neither Xede nor Shiv’s tuning.

I just wanted to clear this up to everyone because I was there and have been reading posts that are not exactly true or factual.

My Best

Eric has just earned some brownie points, $10 off his next dyno tune by Shiv, and his Vishnu keychain is in the mail....
j/k

 

wow mbg doesnt give up does he?

 

Lifes about havin fun...., kinda like road racing a certain Cavy.

 

 

In the end, that was part of my point as well.

I certainly didn't post it in the best way, and am sorry for that.

When Mhyar's car rolled off at Dyno4mance, the graphs were smooth as silk. After that, when he got back to the hotel the night before he was to leave for VA the next morning, there was a CEL and running issues, which I'd assume were when he switched back to the pump gas map, but am unsure on that part. The car wasn't running right, and some of us suspected a bad boost line or that one had popped off. By this time, he was already en route to VA, and there was no way we could diagnose the problem over the telephone. He could not come back, because he had to go to work that following day, so he decided to take his car to TurboTrix the following weekend.

Dyno days are often busy, and I truly wish that it could've been rectified at Dyno4mance or Turbotrix, but there was a breakdown in communication somewhere. Eric was very busy coordinating the event with all the people that had already signed up and paid and were in line to be tuned, Shiv was busy tuning, and Mhyar felt that nobody cared about his plight. In my opinion, that wasn't the case, I believe Eric and Shiv truly cared, but they were too busy to breathe. Since Mhyar felt that nobody cared, he left the event and went home before Shiv could take a look at his car/drive it on the street.

The main problem here, is trying to resolve a problem at a chaotic time. Because administrating a dyno weekend is way tougher than it looks. There are 25 different people with 25 different agendas, and 25 different slots to put them into. Good friends working there (thanks Cooter and Paul) to set up 25 different cars on the dyno and tear all 25 of them down.

I wish Az3ar the very best, am happy his car is running how he wants it to, and am glad to count him as a friend. Mhyar, get those cams and cam gears in there, man. There's hope for that turbo yet!

 

maybe 25 cars for the weekend is a bit too much to handle?

Al hooked him up with a phat tune i heard....

 

There really wasnt much of a difference. Al, got the car running right and lost around ~10whp on pump gas. At least the car is running right and the customer is happy.

 

Come to one and see for yourself. We're busy, of course. But it's not like I have to cut tunes short to stay on schedule. Of course, I have no problem with running 3 hours behind schedule And fortunately for everyone, customers understand that some cars will take longer than others and that everyone will get the same kind of consideration when their turn is up.

WOW, just WOW Eric, lets not put this on the forums, lets stop right there and lets finish this up. You keep going and I will turn this into hell that I can promise you. I have been nice and polite and I have respect for all of you, but if you are going to keep pushing I will push pretty far and trust me on this one. I am fine with every one now, everything is ok and the car is perfect. I will leave it to that.

No more details.

btw Eric call me or chat with me over PM if you want to put dots over letters.

BTW what Eric said above is only partly true and he is not putting everything on the table.

 

A man can only take so much

 

EDIT


i said what i did after i was called out in another thread for no reason. i have been siding with him until that.

 

Look, Jeff, there is no need for personal attacks. Act like an adult in these situations.

 

kinda OT...
Shiv -
For the NW (Seattle) trip, will you be able to handle 7-8 tunes in about 8 hrs, including 2 big turbos ?
Hope you already have your travel plans arranged for the 23rd cus there's a few antsy people here.
