This popped up on FB, Rob did the tuning for my LB7 to LBZ conversion, (which seeing as how the LB7 was a federal truck, may still be emissions compliant?)

Anyways great guys to deal with, if this is true, hopefully their business thrives in other areas.

As it reads they will still be offering tuning just not higher performance tunes (track/competition) or custom tunes that delete emissions equipment. I would think they would tune a vehicle to clean it up but not delete or make it a high hp street machine. It also sounds like they are trying to protect themselves from carb/lawsuits.

WTF? :confused: I cant see how that would affect LB7/LLY/LBZ, but who knows.....
I guess we'll have to wait until Rob comes on to clarify.

The part about unlinking AutoCals made it seem more serious? (all encompassing)

Exactly what i was thinking, hoping Rob calls this out as FB BS.

That sucks! I loved their tuning on my LMM. The LLY is still stock for now.

The LBZ in my 03 runs so good, I often wonder how much of the improvements to that truck is the LBZ / six speed and how much of it is just Rob's tuning? LOL

Reminds me of that smart mouth ass hat newbie posting here wanting info about deletes and whining about us not giving info. It’s because THIS IS THE CRAP THAT COMES FROM IT.

After seeing all this maybe we shouldn’t be talking much about tuning at all on the forums anymore. I don’t want to see all these guys lose their main source of business. Just a thought.

Sooo guess it's time to buy efi live and figure it out for ourselves?

Any of us that have a V2, have EFI live, the software is a free download. Just need a VIN license.

Need to set up a go fund me for ATP, to aid in the environmentally safe disposal of (pick something, waste oil?) and then with every donation to the go fund me, you get access to a library where these magical little tune files live!

That way we're not "buying" tunes, and Rob is not "tuning"! We all just hugging trees and keeping all that nasty waste oil out out the streams and ponds (or something like that)!

Oh well, sign of the times I guess.

I really hope this isn’t a sign of the times.

Exactly what part of this did you all not see coming? You've got douchebags like RKL diesel here in Utah that cater to the dumbf!@#k hillbilly kids who think "rolling coal" is the coolest thing ever. They dont go fast at all either, just stab the throttle every few feet looking in them dumb ass elephant ear lookin mirrors for the smoke. Dont worry soon well have the epa not allowing any more light duty diesels be sold here in the us. :thumb:

Sad, but true.

Forgive my ignorance but my situation is I got EFI from them back in 2007 and they've built my DSP2 up multiple times as I've built my truck up. Where do I go from here as far as tune updates as more parts go on my truck? Also, does this mean trans tuning is out? Thanks in advance. -Garrett
