Warning! The Facts About Ryan Koener

TN ROCKET · 05-02-2007, 06:06 PM

It is a rare occasion that I feel the need to reply to a post on the internet. In this case, I feel that the record needs to be set straight as I think indeed Ryan Koener has tried to slander me and my company. Ryan presented the so called facts - here are a few that he conveniently left out:

He said that he spent $3000-$4000 at our facility - in FACT, he spent a total of $2260. That was for the upgrade on TWO boxes from bank-to-bank to full sequential and for our firmware/software. (He was given universal O2s at no charge).

In his first phone call AFTER the recalibration of his ECU, (I NEVER SAW OR TOUCHED HIS NITROUS HARDWARE) while I was attending an IHRA national event in Michigan , he stated that he was very happy with the results:

1. The engine would start AND idle without touching the throttle, previously Ryan stated that the water temp needed to get to 160+ to achieve the same...

2. The engine had sharp throttle response and would get up on the converter easily...

3. The car made the QUICKEST and FASTEST run to date.

Soon after, Ryan decided to change the converter and he began reporting difficulty with my calibrations. I tried several times, at length, to explain how to adjust the accel enrichment table.

As far as $7000+ damage to the engine, any engine that is run as rich as his was, for any amount of time, let alone the majority of its life, will certainly incur damage. I don't see how I am responsible for that.

Ryan stated that he did not feel like a "priority customer", funny, but he said the same thing about his previous source of EFI information - who in fact sold him ALL of it.

Good Luck with Dave at FAST. See you in the lanes.
