How to be a T00ner in one easy step: Btack Edition

[Richwithnomoney]

TBH the way I see it, everyone who obviously needs to know, knows. No need for blowing up FB or any other forums anymore. I understand what he did was completely unethical but you're just feeding the fire and its never going to stop at this rate. He should fess up to what he "allegedly" did. I say allegedly because it hasn't been made officially official by an official what he officially did. Take it to court, end it with a settlement, take his business license (if he has one), and call it a day. I know a lot of people are pissed, I'd be the first to blow up if it happened to me personally trust me, but the only real way to settle it and make him admit what he did is through court. Just my 2 cents...

Nobody is going to court over anything. Unless Jon has copy rights on his tunes or somehow made them legally his and nobody can duplicate then I'm going to say there is no leg to stand on. And I doubt any tuner has done any of that. And I'm not so sure they can considering modifying ones ecu in the state of CA is illegal anyway. So then it would backlash on Jon because what he is doing is technically illegal on a street car. I think all tuners in the state of CA have people sign waivers that have that disclosure on there. That what they are about to perform is not for road use blah blah blah.

It sucks but nothing you can do other than flame war online. So it all goes back to the toon town wars. Ethuggin ftw!

you don't need a copyright to prove IP(see TM), its software. the context of the transaction and what the end user does with it is not relevant. I think the bigger question is would it even be worth it.


software is a lot like music, while copyright is important in getting money, when its sold though a seller whom does not recognize the trademark IP. you can still prove TM as yours and get rights to remove/cease, even though there is no formal copyright to force monies thought the courts. however after this is done you may get a copyright (r) after action and get paid!!

Yeah, I feel you on that one. It kinda sucks cause then CA would have a reason to pass a law that says you can't mod an ECU and all our Evo's would have to be exported to Mexico where the cartels would strip them and use them as mules and slaves to ship drugs around the country and they wouldnt get the proper details, fuel, spirited driving, and love they deserve I'm scared...

So true story:

I met Bryan last year (2013). We actually bought our cars the same day and at the same time…

After we both purchased our Evo's they took our cars around back to wash them so Bryan (his girlfriend) and I talked about cars and whatnot. We exchanged numbers so we could caravan to meets and stuff. Things were chill at first… and after a few days he was constantly calling me telling me about power, boost, tuning, etc… I was like, "bro, we got our cars a few days ago… you don't want to enjoy them as is first?"

But one day he said he bought an intake and an accessport and told me he tuned his car and was putting out 330hp. That's when I started distancing the friendship. I straight told him that that was impossible. He swore it was true. But I let it go.

We cruised to a few meets… I went to his Friday night meets… and then one day he tells me he shaved off the back of his gas peddle so he could push the peddle closer to the floor to make the car go faster… I was like, "what the fuk? is this the 1940's?" That's when I knew to stay away… He'd hit me up and asked if I wanted him to tune my car last year… I said, "no." And then I never heard from him again.

But I've been watching his tunes curious as to when people were going to notice or realize that he's barely had his own Evo for a year which means he's been tuning for far less than a year with no training, experience, etc...

Idk, I hate bashing on people… I always try to keep things positive and keep good vibes, but like people have said… we're a community and people should watch out for each other… I'd hate to see something bad happen to someone's car or worst… happen to them.
