That is so unlike Ed. He personally drove from Danville to Concord to pickup AC adapter for me when I didn't bring anything for my tune this pass weekend. That bascially f*&ked up his schedule but he still took the time and care to get me my tune.

We ended up tuning for 2+ hrs and had a pretty good tune. He still followed up with a email saying how things went and say that he would do some fine tuning to smooth things out for free.

He takes care of his customers better then anybody locally running a shop.

I think your 19 year old *** needs to take a class in being a grown up and handling business professionally.

I've had to reschedule appointments with BOTH Mike @ Gruppe-S, And Ed @ EQ Tuning.
I've also had to reschedule appointments for the dentist last minute, and car work done by a Subaru dealership.

I didn't come in posting flame **** like a little kid crying to mommy.

I'm the other person Ed was supposed to tune at EIP today.

Like mcdrama said (but in a nicer way ), sometimes these things happen. I gave Ed the benefit of the doubt. A man is only as good as his word, and the truth usually comes out in the end. Plus, I didn't see any reason he'd lie to forgo revenues from a full day of tuning. Not to mention alienating current/potential customers when the truth comes to light...

So, I'll wait until I hear from Ed that the EIP dyno is fully functional and we'll reschedule.

Mike, I appreciate your patience and understanding. As much as I hate it, some things are out of my control and that's just the way it is. Thankfully I'll have my own dyno by the end of November, so I won't have to rely on any other shop for scheduling.

Thanks
