Shoulda went through xenocron. atleast he still takes care of the ectune shit fast. I had a problem 2 weeks ago with my machine id randomly changing. Fixed in 3 hours.

BTW a good tuners basemap is normally closer then auto tune will land you after driving around for hours lol.

Neptune works, however when i used it last ( quite a while ago) the user interface was GAY i hated that about it, but it seemed on par with all the rest as far as actual options working properly and such

I got mine installed, but cant get my car to spark, so it hasnt been run in my car. I did test it in a stock 92 Integra, and it works just fine. Still learning how to navigate through the software, but Im happy with it so far.

And I couldnt be ANY happier with the customer service. Seriously. The man is a bad ass, and responds within minutes regardless of day or time.

I am referring to the customer service comments here fucknuts. how many times have Ectune and Neptune been compared in this thread?

I was just asking for clarification.

From what little experience I have, I would say that you fuckers are referring to Neptune's customer service as Calvin is slow as fuck to respond it seems, but i don't care to ASSume.

theidealone · « **Reply #106 on:** April 13, 2010, 02:56:01 AM »

Its my fucking thread you fuck, and initially, I was asking for comparison of eCtune and NepTune.

I dont get your question?

The title assumes I was going with NepTune unless anyone could give me a reason not to, or better yet, a reason to go with eCtune over NepTune. I ended up with NepTune obviously. And I remember someone telling me to update when I got it going. I just havent been able to get my wiring gremlins figured out yet.

So anyways, were really talking about both. Since this thread was to give some pros and cons on both softwares. And were talking customer service, because if Calvin wasnt so sketch, I would have eCtune right now.

[EDIT] And fuck. Maybe Calvin could do a little searching and find threads like this, so he could learn a thing or two.

James is the man I'm a new dealer for Neptune. I can't wait to hit he rollers with this bad jackson. O was gunna do comparison but moates sent me a new deamon so I lost my ectune but o well better off.

HiProfile · « **Reply #111 on:** May 15, 2010, 12:55:08 AM »

Just curious - does Neptune still only have 2 GPO's? I reeealy need 3, along with at least 1 input to use as feedback-activation of secondary maps for my e-cutout.

lilpooh21186 · « **Reply #112 on:** May 15, 2010, 12:09:05 PM »

it only has two outputs, you can dl it @ hrtuning.com take a look the secondary maps can also be triggerd via Condition so you could set a condtion to be say about 10psi the ecu will switch into secondary maps which free's up an input. ive done about 4 cars on neptune so far after you get use to the interface The program is tits!!!

theidealone · « **Reply #113 on:** May 21, 2010, 02:32:45 PM »

So I just hit up JR to see if I could put the same license on two laptops. My buddy that does my tuning hates how small the netbook is, so I put it on my bigger notebook. But I like the netbook for convenience of lugging it to the track and wherever... JR said I could put it on as many computers as I want with no issues.

Where as, I see people that cant even sell their eCtune, because they would have to sell their computer with it?

lilpooh21186 · « **Reply #114 on:** May 21, 2010, 10:04:30 PM »

Yea that's another plus

theidealone · « **Reply #115 on:** June 22, 2010, 03:04:14 AM »

Just another update. I think its the Demon, but I keep having issues with connecting to my fucking laptop. So I switch laptops, that works, then that laptop will have the same fucking issue. By the time I get anything to connect, my battery is halfway dead, and most of the day at the track is wasted. Kind of starting to piss me off.

You plugging it into the same usb port every time?

theidealone · « **Reply #118 on:** June 25, 2010, 12:59:47 AM »

Yea, it turned out that the USB socket broke off of the Demon, after 1 weeks use. Its a fucked design that cant fit into a P72 or P61. Xenocron mentions to shave the USB with a razor blade, and tape it, to thin out the cable, so it fits under the daughter board. Well it still doesnt fit well, even shaved down. That pressure from the daughter board caused the faulty ass surface mount USB socket to break off of the board.

David Blundell told me to pay shipping, and possibly pay for repairs. They would decide if I had to pay for repairs or not, after they saw it in person. I would rather fix it myself and sell the piece of shit. Ive had nothing but issues from my Demon so far. First it was just connectivity issues, off and on. Now the fuckers just broken. Couldnt make any changes at the track, where I found this out.

Sucks, I was really hoping to not run a Homodata.

Oh, and Im using NepTune RTP. And yes, I was plugging into the same USB port everytime.

Minor Threat · « **Reply #119 on:** June 25, 2010, 01:45:50 AM »

you know you can use an ostrich with neptune too right?

Moates is good people about repair stuff, I've had 2 ostriches replaced no questions asked.
