keep changing your story as to what made this guys motor blow. Its freaking AMUSING! This is what CSS ***'s like YOU DO AND CHARGE FOR IT! My ******* PROVED that a car you have tuned has blown. mechanical failure or not it was a car you tuned that has had issues which you had said HAS NEVER HAPPENED(this now makes atleast 2 with you logging for 1+hours on this blown LNF) You first said H/G failure then suggested Meth not kicking in on blue's car Now it's miles and how it was driven but the owner says different/calls BS? If you really think the car's computer cant adjust for bad gas then well YOUR IGNORANT. you can tune it all you want but if the computer see's parameter's not within spec IT ADJUSTS all on it's own and pulls boost/timing given enough time/ a driving cycle or romping on it as you call it! Or does people having a tune change ALL ON ITS OWN in the past based on conditions and octane alone not ring a bell even if they tuned there car more than once a day? If i was 5 id have allmost as much automotive knowledge as you do!

So now you make tunes for all driving styles/tracks and even spent over an hour making this LNF tune safe despite the so called idiot owner's wishes and it still blows? THEN YOUR FREAKING TUNING IS TO BLAME IDIOT. or does that concept not grasp like the basic ability to read and know what you and your idiotic followers have posted..?

your attitude alone would make me stay so far away from your so called tuning ability and shop it's not even funny. i dont care if i lived down the street you clearly dont know how to take blame when you wrong which is fine and makes this forum as great as it is!

 

So you made the tune for what he asked for but spent an hour+ making it safe and make it not as lean as he wanted? WHICH WAS IT cause im confused by your own posts which is not the first time.....

 

Cause the tuner even stated he put in work to make it SAFE no matter what the owner/driver wanted. If it blows no matter what the driver was doing it's all on the tuner. Or does this concept elude you?

 

Dubsack85 u are a god damn moron. End thread!

Vander your the third person that is now blaming bad gas. See this **** is what annoys me about you James lovers. If you want to defend your tuner then fine but use your dammed brain. BAD GAS WAS NEVER PART OF THE ISSUE!!! You trolls threw that in when the smart ppl weren't buying your "kid shouldn't have beat on it" story. Every thread where someone thinks James is wrong, this happens. You guys will blame some bs for a few posts, ppl don't buy it, so then you blame something else. Then something else. And so on. And the worst part is that you nutswinger troll usually throw excuses in before James even does. Then he's stuck with them. But Instead of ignoring you idiots, he joins on.

Now look, James, you may be a great tuner, and from Wha ive read your a nice person that helps ppl out in person.
But your Internet persona backs you into a corner in almost every thread you post in.
This kind of **** is what I meant when I said think before you go banging on the keyboard.

 

im sick of seeing u ******* bitches tear down on people that do nothing but offer help to this community, how the **** can anyone sit there and act like its not this kids fault for tearing up his car, i know for a fact if i was tuned by anyone other then james and i blow my motor from the **** this kid admitted himself to james, i would be laughed off this forum and the tuner wouldnt receive any backlash but simply because its james u mother ******* start tossing **** on him because of how some kid choice to drive his car. So get off ur high horse u self righteous *****

 

If any dbass on this forum can ******* read please go back to a post Frossb posted. It even stayed shitty fuel/87 octane. He texted me and asked what happened so I sent him the texts I was given plain and simple.

Dub ******, I haven't changed my story at all so please go **** your mom and create a goat. The fact is he treated his car horrible, and Didn't get correct fuel. And it was said way early in this thread so please stfu. Im tired of you idiot.. Keep talking **** its all you do... Worthless piles ! There is no point to chat with you because no matter what I'm gonna be wrong so each word I already have typed to you was a waste of my energy.

And, I post like this because dipshits like this kid^. I don't take finger pointing or accusations which. Are false lightly.

 

As FrossB...i can confirm this.

 

If it was CONFIRMED that he ran 87 and i missed it then i'll apologize for that. Someone asked the owner? Show me.
But You both missed the entire point of my post.
Just carry on posting like a pissed off high schooler.
Both sides keep posting extreme examples. It's like a presidential debate.
Anyone who reads through this , that can understand logic and reason, will make the right choice.

 

ccss3
i can see if the engine blew up within a month or so...i would blame the tuner for that unless some type or mechanical failure..
the point here is that the car ran for a few months. plenty of time of a aggressive driver to beat up a engine..even on a stock tune..so everyone stop pointing figures in ccss3's direction as the problem..the owner beat the hell out of the engine with a race tune. with out the proper care...

 

^ this, aint that the reason alot of lnr guys have 2 tunes one for DD and another for kill mode.

 

Oh. So you both just said he put a race tune on a dd. good job.

 

it must be nice to be so blind.

 

the tune was way to aggressive to have reliability in mind....
if i was the tuner i would have talked the owner out of a tune like this for a dd...not saying i would have done any better..but a race car is not ment to survive long...but this wat learning is about...

ccss3 will have this to learn from...the car might have ran like a raped ape but...wen u have a race car u have to pay to play...

so now the owner can put some good pistons back in his car do a few other things...sounds liled mrb is taking care of it...from wat ive hurd and seen he dose very good work...

 

That's what I was saying ....if the tune was so bad how it didn't destroy the engine during logging...which we know consist of multiple hard WOT runs
if I run my race tune on my DD everyday that's my choice not any bodies else.

 

Troof

 

You guys act like the only way it would be the tunes fault, is if it blew up the very first second he went wot

 

You gotta be kidding me... Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.

Read your own post. "One for dd one for kill mode"

 

Your opinion. But what we (other tuners) are trying to say is you don't put that kind of tune on a 16 year olds dd. no matter how great the tune may or may not have been.
That's the entire point we've been trying to make.

 

After reading all the replies in this thread. I have come to this conclusion.

HHR SS guy decides he wants a tune and contacts James. Driver asks for tune, which doesn't look that aggressive except pushing the turbo a bit out of efficiency. James says he explains user that this is aggressive and to not push it so hard. etc etc but HHR SS guy still wants tune. James fulfills his duty and tunes HHR SS Guy, and HHR SS Guy pushes his car hard for a few months...putting in 87 when the car/tune was designed for 93/91, doing 5th gear pulls etc. Generally dumb ****...and then it blows up. Then James haters immediately say its his fault etc, and then RPT fans' come and defend him.

James was honestly not in fault here. If the tune was sound, no kr or detonation and the HHR was ok with it, then James should not be blamed. Now if he was tuned and then the next day blew his car up then I would question...but if it was months of abuse then it was clearly the drivers fault.

Also, I have no vested interest in James. I am not tuned by him so before anyone says "OMG YOU NUTSWINGER"

Clearly looks like its just a bunch of people that hate james, for whatever reason, and want to discredit him. I'm sure if this was ZZP's car or Area's or anyone else it would be instantly blamed on mechanical issues and nobody would question them.

 

my cylinder #1 piston looked like the HHR piston on the top of this thread...tuned by cobalt addiction back in 2008 with a canned tune. God what a mistake that was!!! Granted the tune and engine lasted til the beginning of this year. At which point I put in a new engine and received a good tune by someone who is highly recommended in VA beach

 

No one is gonna agree.. There's no point in people arguing anmore

 

I disagree because I agree with you.
So by agreeing with you, I'm disagreeing with you.
What a paradox.
