There are certainly some sketchy places out there calling themselves 'tuners' with boxes full of magic that, with a little digging, turn out to be not particularly impressive.
I haven't come across these in person before - perhaps not common over here.
A couple of our customers have had negative experiences with some of the more popular ones though - negative from a 'not what I expected' point of view and negative also from a poor customer service point of view.
The niche is too small for people to blatantly rip eachother off, but it does happen.
If I remember correctly, the creator of the turbotuner thingy has his own shady past...
Correct me if I'm wrong...

I don't see the problem with gluing the USB interface into the lid, so long as it doesn't come loose?

There isn't a problem with it dave its just the quality of the work I kniw most will never see it but if thats the thought on the subject whats the rest of his work like that probably wont bee seen personally if I had done it I would have done a neat job regardless if its seen or not.
I must admit its not very often you hear about the quality of work people do in not seen areas as most just slap stuff back in untidy there is only one person who I have heared that goes the extra mile which is Mr Tim and for that alone I can understand why people want Tim to do work on their car because regardless if its seen or not it needs doing correctly.

that is because you work in practicality and simplicity before you get to the beauty part......
when your paying TT sort of money you would expect it to be a bit better, but I bet Adam didn't think you'd be opening it up, then if he hadn't sold TT on, you probably be none the wiser, as you would have sent it back to him of repair. TT is now looking a bit like poor version of Oblark's 4.4 ostrich to me now and he has gone way further on the data capture side, I'm seriously considering that for years up grades to my Olive.

I think the design effort & build it is proportionate to the size of the market which, lets face it, is tiny.

It should be proportionate to the price, if people had of opened them up earlier in tt's life the market would of probably been even smaller. If your not going to put the effort in, how are you expecting to have a long term reliable product for the customer (which is probably why failures are getting more & more common)
are we dissing TT based on the idea that the USB port is glued inside the lid? Have the solder connections now failed? Just trying to understand what everyone is so upset about?

Tbh Dave Im really shocked you think the standard of work is acceptable just look at how small the tuning market is for volvos but that hasnt stoped you spending a small fortune and wanting the best ypu can get for your car would you have found it acceptable if your down pipe and exhaust wasnt quite up to scratch etc

I'm not at all impressed that the usb port is just glued in and the quality of the soldering leaves a lot to be desired, I think JT's is even worse. Having said all that, I do like the TT software.

I've not spent enough to sustain a business on. My budget is a mere shoestring in comparison to most. I am also not saying that the physical install is top draw. I also don't think it looks that bad. Sure the glue is a bit messy - but if it does the job and you can't see it? Is it just the glue that's bothering you?
