To everyone who doesn't know who pgmfi.org is, these are the guys that MADE tuning with crome, or a labtop possible, These are the guys who from the beginning CRACKED the honda ecu and allowed us to do what we do today. For all you people who like cheap tuning or your backyard tuners such as myself, support mr.blunder in his hardship. For those who wish to not read its simple, Hondata's sewing pgmfi.org based upon a few accounts of "Stealing and prirating" Someone posed a k-pro downloader that was able to dl from a k-pro ecu and it wasn't "removed" fast enough because blunder has a life, support blunder in his fight against the wrongful accused. And help keep this fourm running to help countiune the research of making honda's go fast.

"I kind of hate posting this here because it is so easy for this appeal to be misconstrued. Unfortunately, I'm also fairly desperate and I need to try to reach everyone I can. If you choose to post and respond to this thread, please do so in a constructive manner - I have made an effort to be polite and respectful, and I ask that you do the same.
Hopefully you are reading this because you are a user of TurboEdit, Uberdata, Crome, Neptune or eCtune.

Without pgmfi.org's existence, none of these packages would have been around to benefit the Honda community. Without the competition, Hondata and AEM probably would not have come down to their current prices. The explosion of aftermarket products was made possible by cheap engine management solutions - without the ability to retune ECUs inexpensively, a build with Skunk2Pro1s would be virtually impossible to do without a $1500 standalone and a $1000 tune. Look at the VW community for an example of a group crippled by the lack of tools available to tune their cars. Point being: it's not just the tuners that charge for tuning that have benefited from the proliferation of cheap engine management solutions - everyone from the cam manufacturers to ESPECIALLY you, the end-users.

I am now in quite a bad spot as a result of being the owner and moderator of PGMFI.

You may or may not have heard about a matter dating to May of 2006.
Someone posted a "k-pro downloader" on the pgmfi forum. The software supposedly allowed someone to download the internal ROM from a K series ECU that had a Hondata K Pro installed.
I didn't remove the software as quickly as Hondata desired due to exams and being busy as hell with things other than my web forum.
Cease and desists, letters back and forth, demands and counterdemands, etc. (If you're curious about the demands made and whatnot, email me. It was shocking.)
And then (10/23/07) I get a proper lawsuit on my back step. Not quite proper service, but I get the point.

I'm kind of wondering what the hell Hondata are trying to accomplish.
They seem to forget that I have been one of their strongest advocates, encouraging people NOT to go reverse engineering their software. I would think that losing my good will would be much more harmful than anything else they would be able to get through the legal process.
I no longer own PGMFI.org (Vladimir Ivanov purchased it last year) so my ability to affect policy and decisions is limited.
I hope they don't think I have any money for them to have... lol.

Oh well.

If anyone thinks they can help or knows of a good IP / internet attorney in LA, let me know. If you have a friend who thinks they can help, show this to them - there is nothing here that isn't public record.

I'm more or less broke from trying to get my business off the ground and caring for my family, so it looks like I'll be using the credit cards to pay for my defense. If you feel like contributing to the legal defense, you can send paypal to pgmfi@pgmfi.org - Vladimir has already said that he would use some of PGMFI's paypal funds to help out, if needed. Please don't send a lot of money - if everyone that has received some benefit from the site would send just a dollar, I would be set for lawyers. I know that isn't going to the happen, so please send what you can and spread the word.

Peace
