As for communication I've never had an issue getting ahold of brian ever. He usually gets back to me in a few hours or if it's the weekend the next business day and I'm not even a customer yet.

^Probably got tired of answering the same mundane questions over and over again. Seems to be a recurring issue on ALL social media platforms.
Brian is the ONLY tuner I know of to release the pin location for anyone who can read. UN-like others,.. he asked for nothing in return. Many people have begged and pleaded for that location. Before Brian was gracious enough to chime in here, I had personally tested multiple locations myself, including one vender's "claimed" location, with 0 success. He spent alot of time developing custom tables using EFI live, as necessary pid's and tables are not compatible/unlocked using HPtuners for remote tuning.(from memory) On that note, I still have not seen a true "FLEX" fuel LTG Camaro. Also, rumor has it ZZP has made some progress recently on the LTG flex fuel issue! |

He was really awesome to provide that information when i asked after our flex fuel thread was getting nowhere. I hope zzp figures it out but are they figuring it out with hpt or using another software like EFILive. I wish i had used brians efilive tune sometimes instead of jumping into hptuners so i could get flex fuel but the closest E85 station is so far away I'd burn through 1/3 a tank on the way home. Would be cool to have it for the dragstrip though.

You must exceed the use of 0.9 L (1 qt) or greater of engine oil within (2,000 miles), or (2.5qt) or greater within (5,000) for it to be considered "Excessive oil consumption", not due to leaks.

1 qt and a half in 1400 mi, no leaks, used to be 1/2 qt in 4000 mi, then my pcv system failed (so they say) and I went through 2 qts in 500mi, they replaced all pcv valves and valve cover but is still putting too much in the intake tube.
