can someone PM me their number...When I go to their website it only allows for email which has gotten me no where. I have needed my 02 sensors turned on for an inspection tune for the past 3 months. Ive emailed him 3-4 times with NOTHING.

Is doug even in business anymore? I know he was going through a divorce etc etc....I feel sorry for the guy but I mean I really rather not have a ticket for inspection and have been really happy with my tunes. I gotta figure something out within the next 2-3 weeks.

There are threads on here talking about it but your best bet is to find a new tuner.

I have no cats and was told by the mechanic it will not pass even with the tuner.

its a simple question...all someone has to say is yes or no. Dont need go on a mission on readying post after post to get an answer.

Yes i understand for a over used question like " what gears should i put" the SEARCH key would be helpful, no need to make it complicated.

Cats are a Federal requirement, if they look and they are not there and they follow the rules you fail.

Look and try to find you another tuner, If I've learned anything with this deal is if your marriage is on the rocks open up a website and bust your nuts to provide good service and when it comes time for the big payoff take everyones money and put it in your pocket for that dream mobile home.

Yeah...good luck with that. Do you have SCT or Diablo?

I have SCT x2. My state (texas) is the OBDII , no sniffers. So all I need is no check engine light and it will pass...Ive already had it run for free and the only thing its not passing is the 02 sensors are turned off.

If I get a new tuner, will he have to change my whole tune or just turn on the 02 sensors?

Yeah...I'm in Texas too. Your best bet is to get a new tuner and have him go into your tune, make a copy with the rear O2's turned on for testing, then drive to the station, swap the tunes, get it inspected, swap them back, drive off happily into the sunset.

What part of Texas?

Bamachips no long in business?

There would be 2 places I would recommend to you:

1. HPP in Lewisville can fix you right up. http://www.hppmotorsports.com/
2. http://www.s197forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=20471&highlight=richardson

BTW, if you have an SCT, they'll probably be able to unlock it and tweak whatever you want tweaked.

Good luck! HTH

I might call HPP, actually sounds like a good idea. good to hear from you btw, hows the car ?

The car is running strong. Needs a good washing, but with all the snow & rain, I've held off doing it!

Those guys in Richardson are good too. They fixed my driveshaft vibe for me.

Good luck.

Skip it....

I think we should all just assume he's out of business, until he goes around to the community and tells us all otherwise.

I know he hates drama, and these kind of situations are just full of it. I know, I went through similar shit a few years ago.

When and if he's ready, he'll let us all know. All anyone cares about is if he's in business or not.
