Please understand the tuning methods used by tuners are the result of years of experience which they have transferred to their products. They may have legal rights to those maps. Additionally, there may be restrictions in the purchase agreement concerning disclosure of data.

The decision to remove any vendor purchased maps and detailed discussions concerning vendor techniques is final. Specifically, discussions of sufficient detail to disclose proprietary methods and/or data. This is a legal decision as Evom cannot assume any liability associated with such discussions and will remove any such posts. Thank you for your understanding.

But, there are those out there, like myself, who have a basic knowledge and understanding of tuning and will not get the car tuned by anyone other than themselves. I'm just trying to find some knowledge out there to help myself. Plus, GST already mentioned on their own that they would posted an "exhaustive" write up on duel mivec tuning. I just wanted to remind them.

I have a pretty good understanding of what to do with the intake cam. I just need some assistance, or rather guidance on the exhaust side.

Thanks for the posts, GST. I and i'm sure a select few really appreciate it.

in the land of "i have a laptop now im a tuner" these types of things can get irritating. People think that they can tune a car because they read about how to on the internet. Taking what they read as gospel and bashing others that do things differentially.

You will never lose for being overly generous. Do you think GST will lose or gain customers through their dissemination of their "lessons learned" to the evom public? I'd suggest the latter in the extreme...
