Re: Jet Performance scam?

["Programmer" <nwester@eidnet.org>]

Dave,
I guess I've got a lot of experience with their products, and know the
engineers by name...they actually do bring in a vehicle and run the thing
on a dyno first. I've gotten calibrations sent up that didn't work, but
yelling
at them won't help...talking with them and accurately describing the problem
will always correct the problem--having some logged data really helps.
In their defense, if you run their chips on 87 octane, it will definitely
ping.
 The transmission table changes are really well done...you've gotta try one
in a 93+ GM truck. Can't say that their flash stuff is the greatest--but
they're working hard
to make it better...don't get ADS SuperChips mixed up with SuperChips.
Lyndon.
