Thank you,

That's good enough for me. The guy has a legitimate problem... Now the question: did Andy cover up a mistake or was it actually broken in transit? We will never know.

I am sorry about your bad experience.. My headers came with the collector ends dented in from transit, the box was fine, but they were bent, I sent pics to Andy and he told me to make a claim immediately... I just hammered it back out as they weren't dented in too much.

**** happens.

Thank you.

Well, it appears you have your story straight but it is still possible your original ECU was damaged in shipment.

Yes, you are right MERC. However, there is overwhelming evidence to support my claim. ECU case in perfect order, supposedly shipping me the wrong ECU back when it did in fact have my VIN in the ECU file. (Yes Ramin, the VIN is in the ECU file according to the tuner) It works in my car now without being re married to my car. On and On and On... I knew starting this thread would be a hassle and that there would be naysayers, but I did it anyway hoping to save some other poor guy a hassle. I cannot continue back and forth as this takes alot of time. The other tuner may inject further evidence at some point however I will respect his privacy until he notifies me otherwise. He is a stand up Guy and really helped me out with this whole saga.

Cheers

Maybe just maybe you should read up on false claims act. and for your information and Andy Got me the New ECU and that is the only reason i did not push the Issue. Unlike you I'm not a scum who's trying get free crap from other. Your just an idiot I'm done

Wrong Again, third party RAMIN.......

The ECU in my hand is the new one... Notice the plastic tabs are in good order since MHP has not had their hands on it. The one you claim is YOURS is in my car with a tune.....

They both work in the car....

Finish him!!!!

Video of swapping ecus and starting the car with no edits. Shouldn't take more than 1 min to do. That would 100 percent prove your case.

I am running Weistec and keeping up with a 06 Viper with full exhaust, tune, intake and throttle body. This is with race gas tho, but he used to walk on me pretty hard before. My 0-60 went from 4.2 to 3.8. I know its race gas, but that was the only example I had.

I get my 94oct tune back tomorrow, ill post some results from that too.

You responded in dis content saying that you wanted MB to not be able to tell that it had been opened.. Reverting back to an earlier post by you, how were you out of a car when you told me you had (2) ecu's... Another Lie!!

Seee, it's hard to tell a LIE.. Follows you forever....

100 percent in my book. Other than the damage being done during shipping it proves that Both ecus are married to his car. Unless he bought 2 ecus and is still holding a 3rd ecu for some odd reason.

As far as a VIDEO of the swap others have suggested. I may just do it when I have a little spare time.
