Yes, they have the 1/4 mile record, which they got at Viper Nationals. We had clutch issues at that event, or surely could have ran faster. Our trap speed was more than 10mph higher than theirs back on the old turbo kit and stock motor. Surely you understand the difference between a manual transmission and an auto when it comes to e.t. and trap speed. Clutching a 1/4 mile is much more difficult, so an auto at the same power level will always run a faster e.t. and lower trap speed. We haven't ran a full 1/4 mile yet, but we have far surpassed D3's 1/8 mile time and mph. We didn't make a big deal about it because it wasn't at an event, and wasn't even a full pass. We couldn't run the full 1/4 without a cage and parachute, so we were letting off around the 1/8th at a test night. We're not drag racers, and only went to get some data. D3 will probably keep their record for a while. When they show up at another event with a manual and run any respectable time, we can have a debate about the success they've had on HPT. Think what you want, but you've proven more and more with each post that you don't know much except how to troll. I'm not sure why I'm even wasting my time responding to you.
Yes, the VOA forums are limited to one account per person. General Forum Rules
"sticky" didn't like what he saw... he created a "New Forum Member" i.e. "GenV"... = Two accounts
Add to that... the public message he left for me personally as "GenV"... which again violated the forum rules for childish language...
Use the Report a post feature... It works!
Wow. I can't believe this guy... Still putting words in my mouth and spreading shit he knows nothing of.
edit: removed url to not give into this guy's crap.

The IP was only used by those his two accounts...
Personally I wouldn't give him the link traffic to his site...

I fully understand that some people would be OK with the stock PCM. I fully support other shops using it, as long as customers understand the potential limitations, and simply want a budget system. We tried it multiple times and were not happy with it for a turbo application. D3 seems to have had success with it on their supercharger setup, and hopefully we can see one of their stock PCM cars without issues at an event sometime. I'd love to see HPT become a viable option, it just isn't worth the R&D effort at this point. This guy just has a stick up his ass because people didn't care for his trolling.
haters gonna hate
By providing that link all your doing is playing his game, Pointless.
Unfortunately, by NOT pointing out the misinformation, it makes me and Calvo Motorsports look bad. There are plenty of people who will read that and take his word as fact, and that bothers me. Sure, he'll get a few page hits from the link, but I'd rather people see him for what he is, and hopefully expose him as a fraud so that others don't give him any credit in the future.
I tip my hat to your sir as I know very little on tuning an EMS other than the basics. I leave that to the pros like you. One thing I've never done is argue with a tuner. I've run cars with 1,000hp and never had an engine blowup or even a check engine light come on. Keep doing your thing and just know that most of us in the Viper community greatly appreciate all your hard work on our platform.
I have to chime in after reading this as it seems some people have trouble with reading comprehension.
I never read anything that said the stock ECU is superior. What I read was that stock ECU tuning can make big power and that stock ECU tuning on the platform will evolve over time. He proved this correct.
Also that it is more cost effective to do tuning on the stock ECU. Frankly, dismissing stock ECU tuning does a disservice to those of us who would like to learn about all the options available at all price points. Thankfully there are those who get this.
Stage 6. The info is on Stingy's post, but he fails to mention the relationship between Stage 6 (who built the car) and Torrie McPhail (who owns and tunes the car). The car has yet to make any sort of video on the street, or run at any event. I'm told it goes into limp mode at elevated boost.
You made Calvo look bad on your own. Everyone can see what happened. You got frustrated and asked for a ban. Nothing was written that warranted a ban but since Calvo pays to advertise you hid behind a moderator.
How is he a fraud when he proved his point? If you think you're right go take him on where you can't hide behind paid moderators to do your dirty work for you. That makes you the fraud.

You seem to be the only person who thinks so. I never asked for a ban. I've never even contact an admin on this site, and I've certainly never paid anyone to do anything for me... You get banned when you break the rules, as Stingy/GenV did. You're either the same person as Stingy, or someone sent by him to come troll, yet again... The only person posting "behind" anything is Joseph Wilk, aka Stingy/GenV posting on boostaddicts, a site which he/you apparently owns.
Anyone with common sense can read for themselves. Look at how mad you are lol.
Oh no, someone dared to suggest tuning on the stock ECU! OH no! You guys tried this yourselves. If you failed and you couldn't or didn't want to make it work how about you stay out of the way and let others try? Shutting people up for suggesting different approaches is insane.
The only thing broken here was your ego.
