may be it Australin Dollars, but still sounds totally ridiculous

JonMBZ

rofl that is a joke they are just taking advantage of you because of your setup.

Dingleberry

either you misunderstood or they are scumbag thieves.

$10k for a tune is something i'd expect to pay on a veyron...

VENOMNS

Holy ****, I am in the wrong business... hahahha that is RIDICULOUS!!!

AMGSC

Stay tuned....but you better have an exoriscim performed on it before you drive it.

since my car is already possessed in a not-so-good way, maybe a cheaper Powerchip "Ghost" tune will only make it run better.

Maybe I can visit them with a false mustache, wig and dark glasses and say I want the "under-the-table Wayne doesn't know tune" at regular market prices.

I think a Eurocharged dyno tune would be worth $10k, but not a Powerchip......................................... .................................................. ..........................I don't even know what emoticon to go with this thread.... sorry

Get your car out to me ASAP. I will make this think come alive. Tie up all the loose ends and have you smashing my record easy. I will get this this tuned with an absolutely killer tune. You just have to get it to Arizona.

Wait so what happened? I thought the tuning was all part of vadim's deal with you? Isn't your car done now, i thought you were coming out to Famosa?

Let me know if we can help.

BTW, you can't go wrong with Richard and Ken tuning your car if you send it to AZ

Tech-Tune

Or you can tell them to go F themselves and regain some of your dignity.

Why do you feel obligated to powerchip? Are you convinced that they are the only tuners on the planet?

You know what, I dont think they wanted to take on your project. So they threw an unrealistic price your way in hopes you'd go away.
The only problem is, you didn't go away, your actually considering it.

Shame on you for being so gullible.

Ghost tuning..... give me a friggin break.

CUSTOM means dyno rental time @$1XX/per hour + programming time@ another $1XX per hour. So...say $250/per hour x 40 hours or 1 week = $10K.

AMGSC

I am calling the tow truck in the morning if it can't be driven out.

Powerchip. Shame on you for trying to rip off a customer of your business partner who spent in total over $50K with from beginning to now. You not only make yourselves look bad but you made a fool out of Vadim. Maybe Vadim is in on this and planning to share in the windfall?

hooleyboy

Robert, does the car run at all? If so we can get it on the dyno and have the motor checked out and diagnosed. Once a very mild map is in your car the motor will be broken in on the dyno. After that we will run a full compression test. If that does check out then we move on to the next step.... If it does not, and compression is low. We go from there to fix the problem.

These guy always find ways to turn water into wine.

TemjinX2

uhmmm if it takes a real tuner 40hrs to tune one car...then i would go some where else.

Most tuners can custom tune a car in 4-6hrs. There's only so many different A/F ratios you can change.

If its a car they consistently work on..they can probably do it in 3-4hrs max.

Tech-Tune

Rob, dont second guess this decision. These guys will will take care of you and make your car whole again.

AMGSC

I heard the engine start up and it ran much smoother than the previous custom rebuild that failed. This is a brand new OEM E55 block, piston, rods, rings, timing chain, everything so compression should not be a problem. Mike Elias from www.MercedesEngines.net assembled the brand new short block from parts ordered directly from AMG Germany because he rebuilds MBs exclusively for a living. I just don't know how long it's going to stay healthy in PC's shop with no tuning and only trial-and-error adjustments to fuel regulator kit to adjust for the 82MM TB.

better comes with a cupon for 10 hr bj with taht...

first 5 hr mst be by 2 girls...

I really want to hear from some of the names being thrown around in this thread. If this $10K figure quoted is correct, shame on you. If not, set the record straight.

AMGSC

My car is in Powerchip's/Vadim's shop tonight. If PC reads this thread I am really nervous about the safety of my car.

I tried to get it out tonight but Vadim assured me it was safe. If my brand new engine implodes, I'll have this thread as evidence.

AMGSC

How about Travis Cattach? He quoted me directly and said the pricing was set by Wayne. If they don't want to tune it then just say no but they said they had no problem tuning it and the car's heavy mods and Vadim's work was not an issue at all.

MBH motorsports

Rich at DC will know what to do. If it runs make sure you do not get on it. We can fix fueling issues. Infact I will say from my own experience.. There is nothing the team at Dyno-Comp cant fix.

Lets end this nightmare once and for all. ***** in your court.

rarfinancial

Are you kidding? If they sell you a tune for 10k and you pay. Call the DEA.. Drug lords would only charge you 6k.. Some one is getting a huge kick back.. Also just the thought of them asking for 10k, they should be banned from this forum.. I will tunre it for 4k

AMGSC

LOL!!! considering I thought a custom tune was in my car for the last 2 years when in fact I was on a stock ECU while running 8-9 psi?.

I deserve an entire orgy of hot babes with that 10K to make things right. Or perhaps PC HQ is back-charging me for the last 2 years for a "under-the-table" ghost tune?
