Re: any good shop in NC
i don't understand...i have alot of friends who have had their cars tuned at rlz and didn't have any problems...the only problems i knew with rlz was that they take forever to finish machine work on a motor...my friend justin has a 550whp ls/vtec 00 Si...and darius with a 780whp eg both done by rlz and they havn't had any problems...and jack does some good tuning...he neptuned our turbo itr and it ran really good...
my civic is about done and i still dunno who to take it to for the tuning...i want JD to do it but he is such a busy guy its had to fit the time in...and josh (dohcdelsol93) wants me to take it to jd so he can go with me and ---- with him lol...but rlz quoted me the same price for a dyno tune as jd quoted for a street tune.
BUT even though i have an ls in my car they said i HAVE to have a p28 and 3 bar map or they can't tune it...i don't see the problem in a 2.5 motorola map and using the p06...i might just go with jd...because it'll save me money since i won't have to buy the p28

Form is in the function, anything else is morally corrupt by design. I can't hold, with any fairness, moral judgements against a living, breathing, learning, constantly changing person but a machine is what it is, and it's existence is defined what it is built to do. Mario, sight unseen, your car make me want to cry. It embodies extravagant nothing.
I hope this doesn't cause any hard feelings between us. I would sincerely like to meet you at some point and chill, you hang out with all the right people to be cool as ---- - socially. Machines are more like religion to me, and in polite company we shouldn't talk about religion.

P06 vs P28 - the exact same piece of hardware, identical in every way, except for the VTEC circuit that at no point in time will be used in your car. But, Howard probably knows more than me on the subject, right?

I wasn't throwing what Howard said in your face, I was mocking what Howard said.
I had no idea your car was assembled in line with reality. ----, put a stock fuel pressure regulator back on her and she sounds perfect.

lol the car rides now...i don't see the fpr being a problem...i drove it all the way from Ari's house to my cousins which was a 30min drive on a basemap. it didn't do to bad actually...except the fact it was over heating because of my oem single core radiator with a downpipe hitting on it...i got an aluminum radiator and slim fan now...like i said once i get the map and pump all i have to do is find someone to tune it...if i have no other choice but to go to howard then i have to get a p28...if not...i have a p06 i can take to you ...but i won't drive it...i have a trailor now

Re: any good shop in NC
Hey joseph, you really like talking ---- about me huh?? i already shut you up on honda-tech about a year ago.. am i gona have to go around to all the forums to keep you from ------ing miss information about me
at least if you are gona talk ---- let people know specific examples of what i have blown up, etc.
Yeah i have blown some ---- up, but who hasnt?? everything i have blown up was pushed as far as it could go with the gas/setup it had with the owner being FULLY aware of what could/was going to happen. maybe 3-4 cars in 2006, mostly due to hurt engines from previous tunes. 2 cars in 2006 due to being pushed really hard, one car in 2006 due to parts failure (first an injector failure, then a sleeve sunk, same car 2 motors) Not bad when you consider i tuned around 130 cars last year working less than part time. You may not like me joey, but dont go around talking ---- about stuff you know nothing about. I have had to go behind more cars that were already tuned by various local tuners in the last 2 years than i have done inital tunes (I'm not naming any names b/c IMHO thats unprofessional, if the customer wants people to know they will speak up, its not my place to do it for them. How do you know what i know about the physics behind a motor and what classes i have taken joseph, i havent talked to you in a LONG time about anything.
the car you mention, 24psi and only 400hp.. the last car i tuned with that much boost made over 600, hell i have SEVERAL street cars on pump gas around with substantialy less boost than that making 450-500hp and have been for a long time.
like i said, quit throwing my name around like you know me and my work. the fact is you dont, you dont see me talking ---- about how you washed the rings out of robs motor or any of the other ---- that i have HEARD about you and your work. Like i said, it's not my place to post up my customers issues, experiences.
BTW this is JDogg from ch.com and HT for those that dont know me.

My problem with you is your bullshit "Honda ECUs don't make me any money, AEM EMS makes me money," attitude, how I referred people to you who had problems with your tuning - car stuttering and hiccoughing down the road - I pointed it out at which point you blamed a third party (Alex for not knowing what he was talking about concerning Honda ECUs in re: the car didn't run right because George had a P06 instead of a P2
and you made ZERO attempt to correct the situation. I got the ------- ECU you dyno tuned for George McNeill, Jason, and the fuel map for an LS with I/H/E was leaner than a stock D15B7 fuel map. I haven't seen anything quite that laughable in some time.I got sick of holding your hand, Jason, when you were whoring yourself out as Tuenarboi Maximus. There was the Mustang you couldn't get started, "Does it have fuel/fire/compression?" and you couldn't answer me, and you made no attempt to figure out what was missing. There was the Honda you couldn't get started, "Fuel/fire/compression, Jason?" to which you responded, "It's a brand new engine, never been started, the rings aren't seated yet there's no way it can have any compression" which is about as stupid as it ------- gets, Jason.
I served my time as an ASE-certified wrench, before you got your first snip of ----- much less a drivers license, and I was enrolled in an Electronics Engineering curriculum before your beloved AEM EMS had even reached the drawing board. You went to school for business, Jason, because you are wholly inadequate in the world of physics and machines. If you've finally developed some small degree of competency in tuning cars it is pretty ------- milquetoast at this point in the game.
Fist yourself, bitch.

Re: any good shop in NC
George never got back to me about his car, not my fault, i cant correct any problems i dont know about. you are hte one that gave me the shitty version of uberdata that had hte tip in problems. After i went back to the older version there were no problems. but no matter, i use crome now which is lightyears ahead of the uberdata garbage you had me using.
The mustang was an intermittent ignition switch failure. Not to mention he took it to a shop in greensboro to get tuned b/c was out of town for a month tuning cars and i had to come back and fix the tune, it drove like ---- and my shitty non-knowing tuning managed to make 165more hp than what it had from the previous shop.
Just because i majored in business dosnt mean i havnet had my share of physics, etc classes and been around more race cars than i can remember.
Like i said, you dont know any of my work, you have seen ONE car i have touched and that was probably the 1st or 2nd car i tuned on uberdata, which as i said before was a very shitty beta version that you told me to use.
now, go eat a dick and get my name out of your venereal disease infested mouth
