Arsen1k,
I *myself* have halted all "investigative projects" due to lack of time. I have been working on expanding a business, the holidays are here, and I have other projects for the scoupe that *require* my immeadiate attention.
I think we have all discussed enough detail in this thread for everone else to do they're own poking around. For example, we already have a winner that stepped up to a local VW tuner as suggested, and found that he can easily dyno tune his ECU.
Of course, anyone who explores is encouraged to come back and share. But I myself have too much on my plate right now to offer anything more at this time. I have a drivetrain that needs an entire overhaul, mods to install, and a bose waveguide component system I am custom fabricating that already has me into 3 days and a gallon of fiberglass resin SO FAR; for ONE door panel.
I have had this POS for a few months now and have hardly enjoyed it. SO I'm busy trying to take care of that first. When I get the car where I need it to be for tuning, I will crack back into it. Until then, you'll have to do your own pokin around and come back and share with the group.
Door_man,
Your right. It's not fair.
1: if they don't make you sign a EULA (electronic user liscence agreement) then when you fork over the $ and they fork over the code.. it's yours.. to do as you please with it. Plain n simple. DOn't let them BS you. Just nod your head and smile.
2: There is no way to lock it. End of story on that one. you can plug it into a burner kit, and "dump" the entire contents in a few seconds to a backup file. Don't sweat that either.
3: no, noone will duplicate your exact setup. But comparing that code to stock code could help us decipher the map varibles a LOT quicker. SO it would be very useful. But your right, we will figure something out
Until then, get it tuned, smile, and nod.
Peace.
- Matt
