So, becasue you do not agree with his marketing claims, you throw his ability to tune out as well ???? Didn't you just say "The problem with these cars is the torque management...which I believe needs to be unlocked in the TCU. "
So, you know what the biggest problem is with your car, and you know that there is a company out there that can FIX IT, yet you come here and post a thread like a martyr because you are unhappy with Andy's marketing. Sounds like you are the one who is angry....and not only angry, but stupid on top of it.
If you were a true enthusiast, you would step up and be the first V12TT to run MHP's TCU tuning and come here with objective reports. And if you really wanted to be an enthusiast, you would run the **** out of it at the drags then pull your trans and look for signs of unusual wear and long-term reliability. But, you don't. You sit here and play the martyr role while contributing nothing.

Do you think banning someone because they made public information a dyno number that is not in dispute is childish?

But I thought that's what this thread is for - to enlghten and make a positive contribution??? You are even less helpful than your cheerleading buddy, Tom. I'll ask it again - WHO ELSE CAN UNLOCK THE TCU ?? It's a simple question....the fact that you refuse to answer speaks volumes about you and Tom's combined motivation with this farce of a thread.

While you are at it...ask Andy why he claimed that his MHP tune puts out 18-20lbs of boost...while I have PERSONALLY datalogged 19-20lbs of boost from my car...wait maybe it was my BMC drop-in filters....![rolf](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/rofl.gif)

After doing some research on LET, I am going to give them a call. I understand that they are offering a money back guarantee on their custom tunes done on a dyno right in front of me. I will let everyone know what happens. They are coming to our area in a couple of weeks. I think LZH was right...I need to get some first hand experience and stop bench racing... get it done and report back to everyone. Hopefully they will be able to do what I want them to do.

Dude you don't get it...re-read the other post (you know the one where you are kissing Andy's rear and defending him) from page 16 to page 17...Andy first banned me (via PM) from purchasing MHP products because I told Jason (JAYCL600) and he posted the 630rwp/700rwtq S65 stock dyno numbers before Andy was able to post the dynos. He then "banned" me publicly. Mind you...he never told me to keep them a secret.

What is it with you and the word "ban"? I told you I wouldn't do a tune for you (and Roman but since he's ficticious he doesn't count) which shouldn't be much of a problem because we only guarantee unicorn power...

Buy a tune from one of the other company's that you've been promoting in this thread (again how's that GP going), and do you own testing. It would be nice to see something from a 40 YO besides scorn and sarcasm.

I think your car isn't just a run of the mill "55"...especially with how little you weigh and the solid punch it throws. I guess with a money back guarantee and the dyno proof right there... on my car...it will be solid enough for me. I want to talk to them first before I put the cart before the horse.

LET is going to do this at the dyno at Function Tuned in Dulles VA on 10/11:
The prices are as follows:
V8 cars = $800 + dyno time + $100/hr for tuning.
V12 cars = $1500 + dyno time + $120/hr for tuning
This has a money-back guarantee...so it seems to be a no brainer...given how they aren't gouging people for a custom tune....and no unicorn-power numbers...

You got me...yes...I really don't want to spend 15% ($7.5K) of the current market value of my car to get a mythical "custom" tune... I would rather spend around $2.5K (including dyno time). I am sure that is completely illogical to you..... but analytical and logical analysis don't seem to be your strong suit.

Actaully that makes perfect sense to me. Pouring a lot of money into a cheap outdated AMG would not be the "logical" thing to do. Thanks for clearing that up. Good luck with your off the shelf, run of the mill tune - you are a true enthusiast who constantly pushes the edge of the envelope for all of us other schleps who could only dream of being as knowledgable as you !!!

No Tom, I only hold contempt for a person like you who starts a thread of this nature and really has no clue what he is talking about - and even admits it. You claim to be an "enthusiast" when in fact you are anything but. An enthusiast is always looking for the next best thing. You are nothing more than cheap poser who speaks with quasi-authority from listening, reading and going to the track a few times - hence your bench racer status. You started this thread simply to advertise for other tuners in an effort to discredit MHP and make yourself out to be a martyr when in fact it is you who spoke out of place and started all the drama.
Clearly there is a back-story here. Andy even gave you permission to post the PM's. So why don't and clear this up once and for all. If you have something to say, THEN SAY IT and quit acting like a snide little ******.
