Rs Gus,
I have invested over Ł400 of my own money on this coilpack board project not including
all the time I have spent developing the software and hardware testing.
Aswell as doing other work and having a family life, I do as much as I am able to within
the time and resources available to me.

Mike Rainbirds comment is valid so why carry on....

I will recap...
Stu has ONE to try for himself and once he is 100% happy, I will send more.

Rs Gus,
I dont expect praise from you at all and I have nothing to prove to you.

At this point in time, this has nothing to do with you so why continue to have a go at me.

This deal is between Stu and me. If he is not happy then I am sure he will tell me himself.

Please do NOT take this as having a go at you as this is NOT my intention.

Rs Gus,

It is a shame now that after all the recent troubles, people are afraid to actually
post good things about me on here and I suppose I do not blame them.
At least 3 people I know on here have or have had coilpack drivers on their
cars fitted by me. (The older type like you had)

If I can design a whole ecu that runs a coil pack the I am sure a lesser technical
detailed device is not out of range of my capabilities.

As for your issues, You fitted it yourself and as I did NOT see the installation
myself I could not comment on the EXACT problems you had.
All I can say was it was tested before it left, and it returned not working
with the warranty seal broken.
We never really had a chance to resolve it in the end as things got a bit heated.

Matt,

Its good how you didnt mention me in that post so heres a for you !

Things are moving on now at last in this area as you will see shortly.

Whoever you spoke to, is bending the truth a bit as the coil pack conversions have only been publically
for sale since september last year and before then only fitted to a few of my friends cars !!

exactly that's the way i'll be doing it. S8 ECU, EECIV phase sensor and coils on plug.
