wow alot of fans in here, but if it's true after signing the waiver your car is blown up I would look at the time on the dyno session. I think it was blown up when he faxed that to you..
Beware of Excessive Motorsports or whatever the new shop name is

Yeah, I have also talked to your close friends and I do know your level of integrity LOL. If you really want a receipt, then I'll make you one if that makes you happy. Maybe it will change things for you but I seriously doubt it. Also, cash or check, NO credit cards as a lot of other businesses do.
Also, on the waiver issue. Remember, my dyno was at another shop, NOT MINE. So you would have to sign a waiver no matter what.

I will not pull a car until it's signed. Period.

Chris tuned my last cobra and it was a strong tune and was drivable. I will say though that I can see possible issues and I'll never have him tune a car of mine again. Every pull he shut the engine down before the car returned anywhere close to idle, certainly not the best thing for the motor. I saw him do this to a turbo car too once when I stopped by one day.
Lol im glad your car runs strong with my tune. Im glad to see how you know how its supposed to be done. Well you had me do a couple of your cars so you must have been not to concerned about it.

What's wrong with doing this? This is how alot of cars are tuned, the car needs to be shut off in order to check plugs. I use to shut my nitrous car off at 140 mph - 150 mph at the track and never had a problem.
OP and Tuner both are my good friends and maybe they are having some misunderstandings.As far as tunes Chris has tuned my several cars and I never have any problem with the tunes neither OP that's what he stated too..As far as signing the waiver I don't know about other people But I was never asked for signing one too .
Alot of times when my dyno was in my shop i would forgot about getting the waivers signed that is my fault. When my dyno is at another shop they require it so thats the way it is
Another lie! Rizjan just posted that you never had him sign a waiver and he got his tune a few weeks before mine blew up at IMA. So somehow you remembered on my car? The funny thing is you were perfectly fine trying to pulley him up to 21lbs of boost on pump gas. Then when you put it on the dyno you realized it was too much. I guess he is lucky you didn't blow his up.

Yeah, he did not sign a waiver. It was overlooked as we were slammed busy and he was in a hurry to get the car tuned. Let me ask this, if signing the waiver was such a suspicious document for you to sign, why did you? Why didn't you decline and take your car elsewhere. That would have been acceptable. What would the difference have been if you didn't sign the waiver. How would the situation be different in that case?
This thread is good keep it up guys
My car had lots of work done to it back in 2011, and was also dyno'ed by Excessive. Over 3 years on a ported Eaton w/ 2.9/4lb. combo, lumpy-bumpy cams, etc..... Still runs like a scalded dog a screams like a Friday night whore getting cheated our of $.
Would not hesitate to have my work done there again. And I clearly remember signing the waiver when I dropped her off there.

Excessive did the tune on my Cobra many years ago. I ran it at the road course for several years with no problems. I also was very specific on having a conservative tune. I don't remember signing a waiver but I know I have with other tuners on other cars. The bottom line is any time you run your car hard and have modified it from stock you run the risk of something happening bad. Especially if it has 120K miles. Frankly I would not entertain the idea of installing a whipple and nearly doubling the horsepower on a 120K mile motor anyway. That would be like taking my '90 GT motor, with 100K miles, and trying to get 400rwhp. Just not a smart idea and if I tried and it blew up on the dyno I would not be surprised.
The waiver isn't uncommon, I signed a few of them when Lund used evos dyno when I got my car tuned many times. Lots of my buddies use Chris and have nothing but good things to say about him and his tunes. Handling it between you and him would have been a better thing to do instead of this, nothing good will come from this and your posts
If this is Chris, only one of my cars was tuned by you.
Correct me if I am wrong, I thought I did your 03 cobra with pulley and the red cobra with the turbo that came from the other shop down south.
When you modify cars, they run the risk of blowing up. Just be thankful you got a 120k miles out of it and you didn't have to worry about the head tick.
I would make sure a waiver is signed before I take control of the keys. But faxing one after the fact not sure about that.
I'm sure one is gonna be signed for every car now. I thought 19lbs of boost was passing the stock cobras motor safe zone on 93 anyway.

half the cobras on this site is at 19 or better alot of them with higher mileage..bmr tech is running 100k+ with nitrous and e-85, but anything can happen when modding a car...
You didn't tune my 03 and my red cobra didn't have a turbo.
