Ok....let me get this straight. You got tuned, something went wrong and for some odd reason you couldnt get a hold of Vince but yet you still bash him without giving him a chance to fix it or help you with the problem? I have seen Vince fix problems with other people's tunes, work with cars that just dont want to work and help when help is needed. My car has been tuned by him and I have no problems. I was given the warning not to WOT it very often because of the automatic tranny. I took the warning to heart. If i have ANY problems with my car, I know its because of something I did (or chevy did).

And...Just because Jessie is your friend, doesnt mean he's mine. I do not have to be nice and talk as if he's cool. To me he's not. I respected him with the Aveo cuz he was cool but once he got the RL, the power went to his head and never left.

Just my little opinion about the whole shin-dig going on...its pretty low when you get on a forum just to start crap when the whole thing was over the other night. Just let it go. Nobody will always agree with you or anybody else. Everyone has their own opinions and for some reason ya'll cant accept that. Get over it and stop all the freakin' drama. Ya'll are worse than girls on PMS.

i would just like you to take a second and look at the bold sections. i hope you see the discrepancy (SP) that i also see. the plot thickens perhaps? holes in your original story??

sorry this happened quite some time ago, no no i had Vince at the Dyno tune day try and fix the trans tune after he put it on which was over a month before hand. After that had not worked and he didnt fix the issue, I had tried several times to get a hold of him like I said. When I didn't use my Phone, he would answer and he promised to meet up and make an appointment a few times that I did talk to him and fell through on it every single fucking time.So that's when I had made the trip down to Oregon to get my stock tune put back on.

If your wondering why my buddy Jeremy has my stock tune on his HP Tuners, I was originally going to have my car dyno tuned by someone else using his HP tuners way before I even knew who Vince was, well that never happened and no tune was put on my car before hand, and I found Vince somewhat locally so, if that is what your thinking that my friend messed my car up, you are wrong. He just had my stock tune saved for me when it was time for my Camaro to get tuned, and I never got back with him in that time to do so, and thought it would be just easier to tune my car with Vince instead of heading to Vancouver/ Portland area to do it.

Both Vince and my buddy Jeremy have HP Tuners ;)

And this is not related to Jessie at all...so I let that go, and I will let this go since I don't own my Camaro anymore(Maybe he learned from testing on our cars of what not to do,so Im letting this go now and am done with this thread, so you want to know what happened, a fucking 84 year old lady who wasn't paying attention and made a left in front of me, did this to me...So I am done now, sorry if I offended anyone... I don't care to respect people who **** me over like he did.

Yea...he went from "we're all cool with each other" to "zomg, i have a supercharger now! you guys are not cool anymore"...A power trip is all cool for a little while but his never went away, its gotten worse. Now he thinks he's better than the world itself.

Its a car scene. There will ALWAYS be a car better than yours.

yea Im very tired from work and I should have been more clear on my statement. I ranted a little bit, I guess I feel better. You don't have to really tell him anything, He already really knows how we feel. He was a sponsor on our website and hasn't logged in ever since it happened. it wont change anything. The main point is that the reliability wasn't there when we needed it and it wasn't fair to blow us off like that. Maybe he is good at tuning 4 cylinders and maybe should stick with that. Not saying everyone has a fucked up car from him, just a few of us unfortunate ones.

Yea sorry my story was everywhere, thats just how I am, not a very consistent conversation holder lol , I always start to think deeper about stuff and then remember missed details later on and such...**** im tired. :sleepy10:

Thats why there is several edits to my post, cause I get lost in translation of trying to make my point sometimes lol...

Yea, well I would like to see my friends car get fixed for sure, but me, I got a new Camaro...so it won't matter for me, the relationship he damaged can't be undone...Could of had a very successful tuner for F-Bodies...He doesn't need to apologize, I wasn't exactly nice with my words, I just hope he takes this as a wake up call that people still remember what he did.

Tis a shame that 4 cylinder can never sound like a nasty V8 rumble...the video sound quality is shit because it was off a digital camera, it was so loud though in person.

Just know Tom, your still on my shit list ;) I think, two people should go and kiss and make up...Thanks for the nice car comment, you have a nice economical econo box :)

One more thing...yes firmer and faster, not brutal neck snapping shifts that brake the tires loose on normal acceleration when the car shifts. and bang the transmission under the car and have loud banging from when the car downshifts and lock up the drivetrain in first when downshifting it to manual first.

That sounds more like a tranny problem in the first place. Something that was there before the tune made it crisper.

But I could be wrong.
