As far as me, I ran my own shop from age 13 to 20. (Not kidding.) I did everything from valve jobs to complete body and paint work. I had a few hundred loyal customers and worked every hour I could...

The way the "support" for tuning software works is a company like HPTuners has to basically reverse engineer the ECM to find the code for calibration data like timing tables, etc. They then have to...

Your tires were junk when they were new and they're also overloaded.

Wow. So in one day we have three people with three different Carefree slide topper failures. Like I said, I think they're poor design and a possible disaster waiting to happen.
