So today's the day , in contact with Aaron from 8am till 1pm . We got somewhere and done a couple of runs . Going pretty nicely now . Boost to around 13.6 on the gauge.
All came to a halt when I couldn't get in to do another log so I'm throwing in the towel. Plus I lost all coolant as the car overheated for some reason, don't know why

My conclusion to this is , I'm staying away from computers as it's clearly not for me . Disappointed? Yes I am , not with Aaron and the condescending comments towards myself but more the lack of knowledge around a computer from myself.

The car runs smoothly with a nice bit of get up and go , so yey happy enough......

Its the usual thing.
Peeps with the tech knowledge just dont get that some just dont get that frame of thought and that explaining it makes a difference! Then shouting........Nope.
Take it to a shop with dyno?

    Steve did you plug the Earth wire on the engine fan back in after flashing the Engine ECM?

    From memory you disconnect it when you flash the ecm as the fan stay on and after flashing you re connect it or no engine fan.

      Agreed , you end up doubting yourself time after time . Obviously I'm doing something wrong but hey ho , life goes on back to fitting windows tomorrow

      Wouldn’t mind a dyno as it goes

        I went and bought a tiny laser measuringdevice this afternoon , that put a smile onme face ](https://)

          Gee , i thought i had a small one!.........

            Just literally a tape measure really , point and press for measuring

            Was lookat a Makita one that does Pythagoras etc but sales guy suggested this .
            Not used Pythagoras in years so probably saved myself $150 .
            This little wonder only cost 50 bux

            @rado I think you should give yourself more credit for getting to this point with the tune. It's not intuitive for majority of us. I almost bricked a customer's ecu recently as I didn't have the laptop charger plugged in and it went dead while flashing

              I just load flash tunes
              I looked into teaching myself tuning and bought some equipment but haven't done anything with it. I'm struggling with motivation to stay in this trade

              Lol Tim don't give up but i appreciate your honesty.

              Thanks Timbo , it's some solice that not all of us are computer savvy 👍

                I dunno mate, I dont think there's any excuse for a condescending tone, language or behaviour. We shouldnt make excuses for any of this.

                  17 days later

                  OK so with the aid of Tom we flashed no;2 so I done another run and sent to vast . Got a reply and apparently I haven't done the 2nd flash him asking me for what is says top left on tunerpro. It says 2nd flash so I emailed him back saying so , no reply .
                  Today a done another run full throttle, logged it and emailed it , this is the 4th run/log , hopefully here back tomorrow .
                  Full throttle top gear approximately 5800RPM 14.9 psi

                  I'm sorry to hear it's been a terrible experience for you mate.
                  Hopefully you're on the way to getting it sorted soon.
                  Hearing people I know particularly experience this type of lack of support/struggle is tough because I genuinely feel for you and the type of treatment or lack of respect for your own time and your business is pretty poor.

                  That aside, great timing to reach out - I'm coming to Perth in November - just about to book my additional accomodation now - I've got Friday the 10/11 and saturday 11/11 free before I head home on Sunday 12/11.
                  Hopefully there's a WAVE event happening and we'll get to meet in person.

                    It's not too bad , Tom explained a lot to me so I'm understanding a bit more about it . But yeah he is a bit ubrupt ...
                    November in Perth , that's cool mate . Would be good to catch up no problem. As it goes I'm moving to Bunbury in two weeks 140 ks south from where we are now . But , no problem , like I say would be good to catch up Ash 👍
