Default He's in india???????

Just hung up with Chris from APR, i was told that my ECU wouldn't be able to ship until next Monday because the engineer that works on new ECUs is on vacation in India!!! FFS, there is only one engineer? cant anyone fill his place? hmmm seems like I'm looking for 12 to 14 more days with no ride.

Just thought I'd keep u posted..

Default It's the Christmas holidays!! Nothing will ever happen the way you want for these

2 weeks! I'm in business and to get anything done over these 2 week periods EVERY YEAR is next to impossible! I have some of my vender's shutting down until the 5th claiming business is just to damn slow to stay open! I'm beggin em ,,,, PLEASE!! I NEED THIS STUFF NOW!!!!
I can't wait until you guys fire back up on the 5th!! Trust me this time of the year sucks!! Lets just hope what you're going thru is worth the wait!

Yep, that's the way it is for many many small businesses right now. People are allowed vacations.

Default Why didn't you just take your car to a local dealer instead of shipping your ECU from Dubai to the

US? Bench flashing is not exactly the easiest thing in the world to do, and its something you want done right. If you were so concerned you should have had it flashed via your OBDII port at a local dealer.
