ECU Scam
Anyone know how we can confirm that a tuner has indeed updated the ECU?
What prevents a dishonest tuner from pocketing the 3500.00 and not really updating the ECU?

A dyno is not going to tell you if the car had something wrong with it and the ECU was still flashed. If you had a base line then it would but to just go jump on the dyno after the car was flashed will not tell you the 12 things that could be wrong with the car that we have seen.
Every program that I know has a software trail when it flashes.

ECU changes are always a risk. After following many posts over the last 18 months, it appears that those who modify their ECU's aren't really worried about warranty - it's the performance enhancements that drive the decision.

i'm not that worried about the warranty but if the engine blows out:-D $50,000 is gonna get deducted from my bank account thats when i would be worried:-D i can buy a honda civic mod the hell out of it and i will be probably saving $25,000:-)
the question is, how would an ECU upgrade blow out an engine? is it that the engine is not capable of handling this much power?
