why??? ![Confused](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif)
As far as I'm concerned I have not attacked any members and I did not violate any forum rules. I have the right to express my opinion about any tuner as long as I keep it civil. Obviously you don't like that and I'm sorry because I'm putting down your tuner.
Actually I think that the admins should not let you advertise MHP products in your signature. But I am not the one to decide what the admins should or should not do.

You directly attacked a forum mod and slapped "stupid" right on his face, not just "using foul language"

You don't realize it, but examples shown in my post above are NOT ONLY opinions about tuners, but name calling and direct personal attacks on the posters themselves. This is NOT civil. Fanboys or not, no negative personal comments to the members is acceptable. I am not siding with anyone, just observing.

I'm glad to hear u got ur ecu taken care of.. Although it's from another company & at ur own expense.
I'm kind of disappointed to see some company is lacking big time on customer service.

I couldn't without the resistor, (which I did not get back) which looked like it had been shattered anyway. I had to buy a new ECU to get my car running.
Additionally, I asked MHP if they could fix it.. I was told no, and the ECU was shipped back to me. I'm sure he could have scavenged a part out of an old ECU and repaired mine.
I have since sent the old ECU to another tuner who went out of his way and purchased an old ECU off of ebay with his own money and repaired my ECU and put a tune in it.. I am very happy with this particular tuner but do not want to start a war between Tuners.
Again, thanks to all in this thread that sympathized with my situation. Do not fight amongst yourselves over this. This is a common place we can find information and share our good and bad experiences with. We can utilize this information to make our cars run better and show what works and what does not.
Thanks Again!

But someone who works in his grandmother's basement, like Andy, needs to use his deceived customers to cover up his nonsense.

I am not siding with anyone. I read the entire thread before I posted, but I just reviewed it again at your request. Other than disagreement of opinion, there were no other PERSONAL attacks or name calling, other than yours. Did I miss a post where you were called names? Just asking. This isn't a contest where someone wins. You don't have to make it personal.

IT IS ANDY'S GRANDMOTHER'S MAGIC BASEMENT

I think Andy should use this as his logo " Send us you ECU and through our Grandma's Magic Basement...Gain Magic Wheel Horsepower"

That's right change it from MHP to GMHP (Grandma's Magic Horsepower)

Seems like MHP should be called "Zombie Tunes" they keep rising from the dead on this forum.

Now get yourself some Gatorade and calm down.

Just be thankful that your ECU was never sent to GMHP

i can relate with the OP's decision even though he may or may not have read things about mhp and andy previously...
i do this on occasion but on cheaper things... for example let's say a 4gb sd card... there are so many brands and their price range can vary even though the capacity is the same... you're just looking for a decent one... you know of the reliable brands but their a bit more pricey... then you find one on amazon that's half the cost... you read the views and it's not the best, but there are people who have had no problems with it... so you decide to risk it and take the chance that the one you get will be problem free...
what we're dealing with is obviously much higher in cost... i had a similar experience with mhp... i read and researched on which headers i wanted and was on the fence about going with mhp, even though there was a lot of proof showing they had one of the best headers, there were also threads talking about bad business, bad reviews blah blah blah... but the idea of being able to have more horsepower with their headers kind of made the bad reviews negligible in the end and won me over... i figured, it's gotta be tough to go wrong with headers so i contacted andy...

there is a thread for dealers whe should stay away from. Why not a thread for companies we should stay away from then? imo those should be stickied for all members' and future members' reference
