GEE USE A SPELL CHECKER & STOP WITH THE ALL CAPS...
No one (so far) deletes the TM. EVERYONE sets it's limits so high, that it is no longer a factor.
I'm sure Ron didn't share his "know-how" with you either - so don't be a ****-TEASE...

We all want to see verified gains for the hard earned money all the tuners ask of us...
IMHO, I would bet money Ron would love to see verified gains due to his programming, people would be beating down his doors...

I'm not a "tunner" (that would be TUNER), nor am I pimping anyone but your m( oh, forget it).
It is universally obnoxious to type messages on an internet forum in ALL CAPS. And almost as much so, to try and communicate technical information while not taking the care (or being too ignorant) to attempt to spell even the most basic words correctly.
I got nothing against Zimmer. In fact, I may even purchase a spare ECU to send to him and try his programming out. I hear nothing but good things about him.
But, I'm sure that RON HIMSELF would rather the person pimping HIM, to do so a little more eloquently. I find it highly unlikely that he would divulge HIS trade secrets to someone who can't spell TUNER or PROGRAM correctly.
One's words in electronic cyberspace, are the demonstration of who the person behind the keyboard might be. We'd all do well to choose ours with more care...

i glad to hear you are satisfied with you tune, i just question the authenticity of 'torque management'. I can understand tm coming into play when 'traction control' is active but when it is turned off so should tm.

However, strip numbers don't mean much (although dyno's are subject to interpretation as well), a good driver with 350hp can beat a 425hp car all day long...
I hope you get the point, if not, well have a nice day....

Zimmer tuned my friends car (Andreas G) and he posted the dyno results. 14 rwhp plus torque mgmt, cags and a host of other issues.
Go back and look it up.
The gains are verified.
Same results with my car as well.
