Default Hey APR!

Its been a month since you very effectively dissuaded people from getting Revo at TTE by representing that your direct programming solution would be available "in two weeks." Couple that with your silence since, and I have to wonder whether you really are the victims here, or are just trying to drive an upstart out of the market by exercising classic incumbent preemptive marketing techniques.

Default no kidding, AN ecu from REVO is out now...so APR's bs is really getting to me..

if you say TWO WEEKS then DO IT. If you cant make the claim, then DONT SAY IT!

Good job of keeping people away from buying the revo software, or waiting out because we dont know what will happen to the US revo company after the court battle.

TRY to give us a straight honest answer...honesty goes a long way.

Default I've been on the email with them all week about this:

When do you think we should expect your serial port solution?

Random APR rep:
"We can't set a target date now, sorry."

Okay, let's give it a broad range, one that will convince me whether or not to go REVO:

APR:
"Sorry."

Like between two and six weeks? Six and ten? Totally non-committal, here...

APR:
"Sorry, can't..."


JUST GIVE US SOME BROAD IDEA HERE, GUYS!

Default I love the 93 octane APR program. very linear touque IMO.

much better than the 91 octane version I thought in terms of smoothness.

Default you do realize that revo and apr use essentially the same software...

thus the cause for the lawsuit...

i don't know that the difference between a revo'd car and an apr'd car would be at all detectable.

Default Here here.. Why can't these freaking tuners TELL THE TRUTH

So many tuners lie about releasing a product.. Its the same ****.. UUC did this when they were introducing their TT exhaust which was suppose to be out like 2 years ago.. Same deal.. "2 weeks" "we're working on it"... blah blah blah blah blah..

Default Actually>>>>

the graphs look a bit different, which apparently is one of the points Revo is making in the lawsuit.
