I'll have VCDS with me, and I'm sure one or three other people will too..
What exactly is "coming home"?

Coming home allows the headlights to stay on for a determined amount of timeTDIJetta99 said:

aaah ok.. similar to the "delayed lighting" on other cars.. The Fords have a rheostat for the time delay right next to the headlight switch.. Wait.. That would be too easy for VW to do that or make it adjustable through the MFD.. We had a CTS here that you can change most every convenience aspect of the car through an on-screen menu.. High speed warnings and all..

I would like to challange Head-to-head tuning competition show so TDI owner after all are able to understand between tuners and how the work gets done, "tuninng is not all the same"
How we do, simple, make a scale and vote all the TDI owners.
1) Smoke " vote 1-10"
2) drivebility "1-20"
3) performance "1-30"
the winner "tuner" pay $ the alchool tab, the looser food..........
hope evrione gets happy and drink allot !!!

No need to install tunes and test, just open files next to each other and explain the changes in the maps. Also explain missing mappings too.F1 tuning said:
Perhaps the real test is we both sit down with a oem file and build a tuned file from scratch then test it in a car ;-)

That's kind of a good idea... I don't want there to be a pixxing match though..
I would be up for the idea of comparing/evaluating 2 similar tunes in the same car.. It would have to be one with both boost and EGT gauges so I could see how they both are with spikes and whatnot.. Damn if only my 99.5 was a flashable ECU.. I have a ton of mods too...

A stock one would be nice as well as one with a ton of mods (big turbo, injectors, cam, porting, etc...)

Will this head-to-head competition between RC and F1 get in the way of guys (like me) coming to get a tune done to their car? Just wondering how much time it would take. Perhaps not much extra time.
Regardless, it would be an interesting competition/show.

I am coming to work as originally planned. I don't care about this nonsense.rocketeer928 said:
Tonino has been buying RC tunings from me for many years, and he has called and asked me more questions about tuning than kerma.
There is a huge difference between resellers and tuners, that's all I gotta say.

I had same concern as Rocketeer928. I'm also waiting months to get a tune from Jeff.

I don't see how this head to head can be judged fairly. It seems to me that most of the veteran members are biased towards RC. It looks like F1 is heading into the lion’s den,
I would like to see a fair head to head, any suggestions. I would like to hear from members that can truly say they are and can be unbiased. If this cannot happen than F1 should know.
How about anyone who is looking to tune their car tests both and stays with and pays for the tune they prefer. The cost for the tunes both RC and F1 will be set the same, so $ is not a factor, just the best tune gets the $.
And the decision is made by the car owner, no one else. At the end of the day which ever tuner that had the most tunes wins.
The loser pays the party organizer $500 toward his expenses.
This seems to be a fair way to do this, what do the attending members think?

I have to admit that all i know about you is what i have read in ALL of your posts, how you started, dealing with Digital racing,etc.. But you and Tonino started exactly the same way only you before him! So you were a reseller at one time and tonino was too. And he learned how to do what he is capable to do today the same as you! He bought some tunes from you in the past does he still today? Would you take a risk to load something into someone's car who loves it more than his wife that was not tested? So he bought some tunes in the past.. I seen what is done and he teaches me as much as he can in the short time we get to spend together. A reseller now he is not. I am now the reseller!
I thought this was to be a friendly competition but you seem to be taking this personally. I thought this would be a good idea to show some folks a different tuning philosophy! Maybe not?

I'm all about comparing tunes, but no "competition" thing.. This is a gathering for everyone to have a good time..
If you guys want to set up a tuning war sort of thing, hold your own GTG for it.. This is a pig roast/party sort of thing where there happens to be an excellent tuner attending/working.. Everyone is welcome, but no bull.. Just come and have a good time..
Honestly the gatherings don't cost a whole lot on my part, or my brother's since everyone that shows up chips in something...The food/drink (other than the pig and some of the beer) is all brought by everyone else so the expenses are split up among 50 or so people..
