Again, I'm not copying anyone's code. I was informed of the 3-bar setup as rescaling the necessary tables that interfaced with the MAP sensor up to the 3 bar equivalent in kPa, around 305, from what I can tell. This of course led to throwing more codes than I care to know. EVEN has left me stranded where my truck has died and not wanted to restart.
And please pull up a post about me ASKING you to hand over code or anything. I've never asked you for anything to just be handed over. But there were questions in regards to the 3-bar setup, and you chose not to answer them. So I found my answers elsewhere. And even on DIY_EFI, you'll not find me asking questions about getting your binaries, and even CREDITED you for figuring this stuff out. What I DID ask for was source code (available on DIY_EFI) and some pinouts of memcal busses. I'm not sure how that equates to asking YOU or anyone else to hand over your work. I'm probably asking the same questions you did when you first got into this.
Your binaries? Sure, I could get them. People have sent me their chips in the mail since all this started. There's not much keeping me from throwing it on the TopMax and dumping it. And you honestly think that if I was doing that that I'd not make posts about my truck damn near blowing up after running 17 psi? And you honestly think that if I am just copying your binaries that I'd ask so many questions??
I know you and Todd have kept tabs on me. That's fine. But the fact remains is that I had NO idea of any LCD display previously out. And if it weren't for PM's and emails blaming me of stealing someone else's brainchild..I'd not be pursuing it. I was approached absolutely with no benefit of the doubt.
And I told Todd, I have no full blown chip that's even remotely close to coming to play. Not even close. And when people started approaching me saying that they wanted the display, I mentioned the standalone unit. This would be a unit that is a display with generic "Program 1, Program 2, etc" and a blank EEPROM on a piggyback carrier. I had NO intentions of trying to resell a 3-bar. But you sweating me like this makes me mention the possiblity to just simply see how much the hammer would fall.
You THINK that no one can figure this out, and you, as well as others belittle people when they come around asking questions about 3-bar, about 40# injectors, etc. I'm just bold enough to find out the answers. I'm not going to be intimidated by the words "That sucks, it can't be done" or "HACK HACK HACK!" or whatever you and the "clique" say whenever anyone comes forward with a question.
See that's the funny part. It's not like this over at the Buick forum (where I got a majority of my questions answered), not like this at the thirdgen, not like this on the Vette forums.
It's that unwillingness that's caused me to do this stuff. If you want to talk about who came out with what first. I brought this up with Todd.
Keylock
pushbutton changing
Security and Valet modes.
Hello??? Jet chips.... Yes yes, I know they don't have one for the SyTy, but they do for f-bodies, and other GM's that carry much of the same concepts. And you (or Todd) took those ideas and found out HOW. If not, it's one hell of a coincidence, but it's the same issue with me and this LCD. I had no awareness of his concepts. And if you and Todd didn't have any awareness of JET chips and those features......then you absolutely have no place getting on me about the LCD's. No one gets on you about that. Hell no. But when someone does the same thing to what's gonig on here and finds out how......people raise a stink.
The likelyhood of me figuring out the 3-bar?? Not very likely. I've already blown up my truck as a result of it, and while I'm not poor, I surely don't have the money to throw around for buying new motors everytime I screw up. Is it worth it?? Not likely. At least not very soon. Now after talking with Craig, the display is a very good possiblity to cross platform with already existing Moates adapters with Vettes, F-bodies, etc.
But again, the LIKELYHOOD of me figuring it out......I don't figure it. But again, I said that anything can be figured out.
Pay attention to this part Brian
In earlier posts, you'll notice that it was in regards to a display. And because of your response....I'm not going to do the 3-bar from this point out other than my own work. This IS out of respect for you. Believe it or not. I could be a dick, just dump your chip, and trade out 3-bars for bags of cookies. But I'm not. And if anything is figured out on my truck, it will stay on my truck. But, I'll continue to answer questions from all the boards if I get
Once I do figure it out though, I do want to send it to you though. But as for this LCD display. I plan to continue. It's not a SyTy specific setup, but rather a DIY kit with a blank EEPROM that I'll custom program the display after they figure out their programs. If they want it to say timing, octane, boost, emissions, whatever.
If you have a problem with that.....tough. That has NOTHING to do with you and has NOTHING to do with Todd.
But Todd mentioned that the reason why you're so unwilling to help anymore is that you're tired of the constant and the same questions. If you're tired of it.......then get out of it. But stop being so hurtful to people that want to figure it out on their own. If you didn't want to spark curiousity, then you should have kept it to your own truck.
But I'm tired of this bickering. I've wasted hours in emails, PMs, and now posts about this. This started positive. But between you and Todd, you turn it negative. The 3-bar talk?? Yeah, that was to open your eyes a little. And if I was running your bins......why is my truck blown up?? I I was running yours....then.....THE ULTIMATE is at fault!!! lol j/k (I know you get a lot of those posts)
I'm tired.
