Finally getting ECU to JHM but all is not as it seems...

I suggested that to uwe ross and he was an utter cock about it lol

They’ve made a huge financial mistake. Its too bad because they make a great product. I’d have bought a $100-$150 light version

If I ran a shop or something, I would have no problem paying full price for it, but for the average consumer, it doesn’t hold that kind of value.

Saki, I remember when I posted the links to the free download on audizine back in the day and some douche from ross tech posted about how they put a lot of money into developing it blah blah blah and then the posts were promptly removed by a mod

Speaking of posts removed…where did the bensti thread go…and all the pics?

The “ben vs. JHM tune” one? If so, page 2.

Well, after a day’s delay at the hands of US CBP, my ECU arrived at JHM at noon EDT and was shipped out just now at 7pm EDT. Yes, their lack of presence on the forums is annoying, but rest assured they’re still gettin’ the work done. I still haven’t heard back if they found any other tunes on there. Whatever, hopefully I’ll be up and running again by the end of the week. And ready for the spring 1/4 mile season.

cool!

so they received it and shipped it out in 7 hrs?

They’re fucking swamped. Dan is working retarded hours.

Actually it looks like it was more like 5 hr lol. The ECU is waiting for me at Fedex, however, I’m working til midnight :(. I’ll get it installed tomorrow. So excite!

So jealous. Mine should have been going to JHM on monday… stupid P0021 ruining my life.

I sent mine down on Monday. Paid $70 for overnight shipping so that it would arrive Tuesday morning before 10:30am local time at JHM. I dropped it off at Canada Post who picked it up and then sat on it for a day before handing it off to FedEx. For a short while, I was freaking out because Canada Post was saying they gave it to FedEx whereas FedEx was saying they never got it. Great. Anyway, long story short, it would seem Canada Post found it, properly handed it off to FedEx who shipped it overnight and it arrived this morning at JHM (albeit a day late. FedEx is contacting Canada Post so that I get a full refund). I’m currently in-between contracts so I need my car for interviews so I hope they turn around quickly on mine as well. I asked Keaton if he could ship it back using overnight shipping. We’ll see…

I used FedEx all the way. I would have had it yesterday if it wasn’t for US customs LOL. Axel Did you have to fill out some FCC form for customs?

To send it down, I just wrote “Automotive ECU for repair”. That’s what I did last time as well and neither have given me any issues. My issue was with Canada Post.

post ftl!

although I think usps is pretty awesome

I wasn’t so lucky. 2 days and I still haven’t heard back from JHM. Hope they’re not having any difficulties with my ECU.

Axel, did you have to pay any duties/ taxes in bound to Canada?

In other news, my car is now the proud owner of some Whispbars, a Weathertech trunk liner and a JHM tune, all of which are working as advertised. Fabulous stuff.

I don’t remember. I think I had to pay brokerage fees which is bogus but what do you want. These companies are all out to get us.

Congrats on your new purchases. Have them all, like them all :slight_smile:

Nice its good stuff huh. I loved the day I got to enjoy the first blast of the JHM chip. What made it even sweeter is the fact that it was on a JHM header car.

don’t forget to vote.

No brokerage, just the 6% duty and 13% HST on the duty and the repair fee :(. Apparently, if the thing isn’t fixed under warranty then it’s subject to the taxes/duties due on the repair fee. $75 into the pot…

Thanks for reminding me to vote, I had forgotten. It really is a great mod. I haven’t beaten the piss out of it yet but even in day to day driving it’s raised the bar again. You mention headers - that’s probably the next mod I’ve got my eye on, if only to get the engine out and the timing chain system overhauled.

They just emailed me to let me know they’re sending it back today. Woohoo!

my new chip is in the mail! woohoo
