The flat-lining strategy sounds great, it would be real disappointing if we weren't able to get there from here because of 'stupid Engineers'.

I hope there's something that works well and not just a pseudo-effective patch because your hands are tied. You having a good fix available, and me not being able to use it is maddening. I assume I'm paying for this customization over what was delivered originally? If you weren't expecting this and it will make a difference in your decision in what gets done lets talk about the cost. I'm all for making it right if possible as long as it doesn't break the bank.

The throttle positions you gave me do seem to line up to the best of my recollection, but Tony wasn't calling out everything while I was driving either so I have a pretty limited picture. There's a small chance he saved the data but I wouldn't bet on it. I'm sure since he was watching the scanner, he'd have a better idea of where things were at than I. This information is what I had in mind you and he talking about.

Sincerely,

We'll do it. It's one tune and it's not anything major (basically just a few keystrokes in the tuning software). The wait will come from the fact that it's a programmer and it has to be done using Fusion.

Default Umm...Patience

If you could give me a swag on the timeline for this change, when you have a chance, it would be very much appreciated. Let me know if you need anything from me.

Thank you,

Hey Cleatus,

Just wondering if you could give me a guess on PHP's timeline when I could see this change. I haven't heard anything yet from PHP and it's been a month since this discussion.

Thank you!

Hey Cleatus!

Hope all is going well for you. Spoke to the office and apparently Bill hasn't received the new program to put onto fusion. I was wondering if you could give me a swag as to when that will be put into the queue? It's been 77 days since we started our discussions and 67 days since it was indicated that I should have a change made.

Thank you!

Since I don't frequent forums - even this one - (since forums in general really irritate me), I forgot all about it. My bad.

I'll do it tonight and let Bill know that it's done. However, you'll have to "blank out" your unit by doing the unthinkable "update"...and you'll be without your tuning for a while. Bill can't put the programming on Fusion until that's done.
