Paul, just go and flash the stock tune onto the car.

Tell him he's all set, back to stock, and make sure he has the previous owner's phone number and information. You know. In case there's anything else wrong with the car.

Make sure you let him know that the previous owner gets off work at midnight, so the best time to reach him is usually 1-2am. Block both their numbers.

actually yes the weather does put a beating on these cars when driven year round. Mostly though it's just lazy ass kids that have no idea about owning a modified car and the routine maintence that is needed.
It's just ridiculous.
But anyway, went out there last monday, flashed the car again, made the shop owner pay me, then went to the bar lol. Hung out in L.I. for a few hours, no sleep, back to work .
