actually I have huge respect for Bill as he basically shares his recipe freely with Minotaur Software... The main reason I went with PHP over DP was that i could pursue my interest for learning more about Diesels and Bill was open to sharing....

I thoroughly enjoy the theory side of it so I figure this was a good way to start some technical discussion and hopefully lots of folks will learn from it.. In reality the % of folks that will actually try their hand at doing their own tuning is very small certainly not a threat to PHP's business. (probably the opposite effect actually) However ,it seems some other Tuners don't see it that way... I think I know the answers to some of the questions I asked so will see if my thinking is correct. I guess you can look at tuning like any other hobby or sport that people are willing to put time and effort into to get better at it.

In the world of modern auto repair, I would say there are very few techs who really understand the inner working of Computer control systems. Having taught high school auto shop in the past and maybe I will again in the future, I have always emphasized that you can't find the problem if you don't know how it works! So my goal is to get that intimate understanding of the inner workings of computer control systems. I also see the Minotaur software as a great teaching tool. the 3D layout being very visual and a good way to illustrate what is happening inside the PCM. (Hence, I would purchase more licenses for the software if I get into teaching again in the future) which will be after both my kids are in school full time.
