aw, dont hate.
its an easy transition for someone (like myself) just getting into the standalone ecu game.
i looked at a couple haltechs, but i guess i just kinda got scared away.
i will get one eventually, just gotta work my way up to it.

I don't have a HUGE problem with the unit itself.... altho extremely barbaric and crude.....

oh and this silly expensive dongle called a "commander" lol......

It's the fact people try to use their stock brittle 100-200k harness that's shady as Eric in a junk yard.

Attached is a computer rendering of what he might look like today.

If anyone sees or believe to have seen this man please contact the authorities.

He is a known sex addict and *********** excessively - caution should be taken.
