Your bashing and *****ing is getting you nowhere, and most importantly, it's not helping anything. So, just take a chill pill and let those with proximity to the issue respond and figure this out aloud and clearly.

I hear what your saying, but expect people to do what im doing... just want hard facts to support his claim.
I would hope you do purchase it... it is a great product and the guys at Vishnu are doing a great job... and PROcede is the best bang for your buck on the 335!
i wasnt bashing anyone or *****ing..... sorry I wanted some hard data to support it.. didnt think that was so bad.
take care.
im done.

Honestly,
Even as a competitor I would have to agree that I dont think this claim is true. The unit is designed to work a certain way and there are a good amount of units out there. There could have been something installed wrong if even got to this level with the new ECU,etc. This would be an easy time for me to jump in and "bash" the product but I do not think this is a fair accusation and everyone should wait until you hear something first hand before drawing a conclusion.

Reasons like this is why I won't believe a damn thing that most high end dealerships say.
Again, I'm willing to wager that this is a quality control problem on bmw's end. Maybe the cat's are prone to fail without the ECU modifications, How exactly did the ECU "Fry"? Stealers will always blame the easy culprit before they blame their manufacturer.
Why the hell would anyone modify a turbo'd car and not completely negate the cat's? That's like driving a 360 spyder with the top down with some morbidly obese chick riding shotgun.
Look how the PROcede connects to the ecu, how the hell could it possibly "FRY" it. I'm no electrical engineer, but that's a bit far fetched.

Wow, this really got out of hand fast. I think that for the benefit of all 335 owners, Marc should cooperate with Shiv and give him the contact info he needs to research the problem further and help prevent other tuning related problems down the road. Marc, I respect that you came here to tell us about your uncles car issues, but it doesn't do us any good unless you give us (and shiv) more facts as to the circumstances of the melted cats and ECU. THis could very well be the result of the Procede being installed improperly which is not the fault of Vishnu racing. I believe that your uncle had the problem, but help us do something about it at the least. Just coming on the net and degrading Vishnu and Procede does no one any good.

I'm still wondering why the hell anyone wants cats on a tuner car. Donate yours to a Prius owner so they can retrofit, lol.

Exactly.. And if you search his username on E90post, even if not directly related, he does have relations with Vishnu, Shiv, and the PROcede community.
I take everything online with a grain of salt. Can't believe Marc, or all of the open supporters.

You guys are getting a taste of EXACTLY what the Evo community was like with the whole Shiv thing. Drama follows cronies leading to pissed-off community. Check out SoCalEvo, NorCalEvo, EvolutionM, etc. ad nauseum. This is nothing new... I love when n00bs try to bash established members...
