Looking for info on custom cal.

[Travis_k]

I buy all of my other parts from FWD performance, but im concerned about buying a computer when according to the company website their products are sold as is, and its very possible for a computer to be damaged in shipping. The only problem with saying a swapped in an 89 daytona engine is i think they would tell me i had to have a 89 daytona computer as well. Im guessing they may not even notice though, becasue i know 2 people with engine swapped volkswagens that passed just fine.

IF, IF by chance you have a problem with it, I am pretty sure she will work with you on it.

Hopefuly that would be the case, if anyone has had that situation come up, id be interested to know what happened (with a cal from any vendors)

[turbodave/neon]

I know of people that got a SMEC from Cindy and it arrived with a cracked case. She replaced it!

Well, after you wait 8 months for a cal from TU, if it isn't right, you get back in the 8 month line.. Ask Simon.

Hmm, as long as theres no problem replacing it if it doesnt work (i mean doesnt work at all, not just something isnt quite right) i will probably buy one from fwd performance then.

hhhmm, let me guess, TU stole money from you too? I hope you car breaks down, and due to all the shittalking your doing, you cant get any parts! Please do us all a favor and find somewhere else to cause drama...

87 Daytona Shebly didn't come with an EGR valve either.

Huh, thats kinda ignorant of you to ASSume I am mormon just because I live in Utah. WRONG! Thanks for playing. You have already shown yourself to be the only MORON in this thread.

i bought a cal from cindy a year or so back, and for some reason or other it didnt work at all. she over-nighted me one on friday eve. and showed up on sat less than 24 hours after i found out mine was bad. can't beat that.

i dont believe he was trying to start drama... just stating a fact. and that fact is, paul has been overwhelmed with orders, and, well, a cal isnt something that is just plug and play... unless your plugging it in and then playing with it to fine tune it, other wise you have to get in line.
ive had nothing but good dealings with tu. and if i dont learn to try, and do it my self, i'll be going back to the vendors for a cal, but which one is still up in the air

oh, and the "sold as is" is because it is modified an may or may not pass emmisions (ie.. street legal, which can usally be taken care of by an afpr) all vendors will work with you on fine tuning, it just takes time, so i suggest keeping, or getting a stock cal as back up, everyone should have one of these

Thats exactly the kind of story i was looking for, it looks like fwd performance will be getting my business when its time to buy one.
