James, you're being very black and white about this.
In all honesty, you don't know the facts. None of us do.
You are completely correct, and I have never claimed to know the facts, hence the comment, "I suspect that there's more to this story". All I know is what RS Tuning have posted, and I have based all of my comments on this.
Until then, I think it would be unfair to bad mouth either company and stop working off assumptions.
I am not working off any assumptions. Everything in my post is based on fact (information they have or have not provided) or is my opinion. Any judgements I have made (about them acting unprofessionally), is based on what they have posted and the way they have behaved.
RS Tuning put this information into the public domain to try and profiteer off of it, at the expense of one of their competitors. If they are going to put this sort of information out in the public domain, they should be prepared for people to see through what they are trying to do, and form opinions based on the information they have posted.
Be interesting to see what k-tec's response to all this is,, hopefulky there shall be one!
I hope they do respond, but deal with the matter behind closed doors (which is where it should have remained), and in doing so, bring back some professionalism to this whole matter, which is currently sorely missing.
but would add, it's made me doubt buying one there remap's on there reflash tools so can upload it yourself.
It's a shame that the marketing techniques of one of their competitors has made you doubt their product. Instead of going off mis-information and Internet gossip, why not call them, and form your own opinion of them? I'm sure they'll be happy to talk to you about the product, and answer any questions or concerns you may have.
Again so you'd be quite happy with the map?
I haven't driven the car with the map in question, or any other car with this map so I can't comment on it. I'm guessing by how much you have to say on the matter, you clearly have first hand experience of this map, so obviously you're in a better position to comment on it than I am. If you were to ask have I driven a car with a K-Tec map, then the answer is yes, for many years and I was very happy with it.
it's obvious anyone even in a professional capacity can only see so much iffy work before they get fed up and feel it's better everyone knows. You can call it unprofessional all you like but that's just masking the fact this could damage someones pride and joy having paid good money in good faith, one off or not.
Let's agree to disagree then. From what I've seen, there's nothing professional about the way RS Tuning have behaved. As Roque has said, we don't know all the facts, so we don't know what has gone on behind the scenes, so I'm not going to comment on what money has changed hands, what damage has or hasn't taken place etc.
As for why I'm defending K-Tec, I'm not. All I'm saying is that RS Tuning have acted unprofessionally and have not put up a balanced story.
As they say, there's always two sides to a story, and at the moment we only have one side.
