Lol wow just wow, bravo Cambo! Yes the little mistake , the one 1 byte which all of sudden increases oil consumption through the roof never seen but the myth exists and overriding all mechanical sense of an engine!
Your tuner should apply to work at Jaguar instead or working for pennies on the dollar, finding mistakes like that , I'm sure Jaguar is willing to reward your tuner greatly.
If you bring it up in that context , question for you; how come your Guru have failed to see a problem with his own engine which led his pistons melting? Another factory defect ? Too bad your guru didn't spot it in time, or maybe he created it by an accidental key stroke ? That deadly one byte. Just wow! Kudos to your Guru!

Yes, this mistake in a tune do exist, sleeping on a stock hardware. But in a combo with a high flow cats/cats delete and SOME modifications i a tune - it can cause a huge oil consumption and, btw, not overriding an engine physics. You should learn a lot about "how internal combustion engine works", start from a books about SBC, for example.
I used to work in JLR, so what?
You're either a liar or a cheater. In that account, where you've got a photo of mine pistons, there was an info that i knew about problems with cyl.1 since ive bought a car - the spark plug electrode was missing. This car was going yo be a test vehicle anyway, so i pushed it to a limit for a purpose, since the repairs costs me almost nothing and i have nothing to loose (while some collected data is priceless). And, JFYI - pistons were not melted.

Yes, im a guru and it is as clear as yours futile attempts to sidetrack a conversation from the subject of yours attempts to steal a tune.

And I don't hide and twist facts in my favor just to put someone else down due to profit at stake. I don't make a living on this , it's just a hobby that started because of passion for cars and improving things. Hope that counts for something btw as to who is selling the tunes ,Moscow Leaper sells all the tunes through Cambo.

I'm self-taught , quick learner how about that I managed to get better and consistent Dyno numbers on 91 gas and I managed to make the tune reliable without blowing up my test vehicle in comparison to the Guru above?

Now if his costumers had lost an engine, that would be a different story.
Self-taught, by buying a tune right.

Alex, Cambo I have found your threads to be most helpful and informative. But really? Cambo you would not sell me a tune because Alex lives in the same country I do? I know nothing about tunes but will be interested in one right after I load up an LSD rear end which is needed far more than a tune in these auto's. When that time arrives I will be looking for a reputable tuner as my money is hard to come by and I'd rather not waste it. Please tell me my options are going to be wide open and not limited to where I live.

So Cambo / Moscowleaper. / Alexjag. If I was to purchase one of your tunes each for my stock XKR-S what HP and Torque gains should I expect. I would be more than happy to run a baseline with a stock tune, then both of yours back to back on the same dyno on the same day and post the results on the forum.
Any takers

Ranchero I don't mind at all working with you. You were looking at raw Dyno graphs untouched first, if you look back at the tread and look at Dyno curve in 4th gear only you will see a nice flatter torque curve all the way to redline, good Afr , solid boost and hp line. Please see competitions Dyno in comparison
