Nowhere near the same though. Depends what you’re after, this coming from a JB4 owner with a Jesse tune.
$600 bucks vs ~$5000 clone, tune, license.
Agreed, also applies to not being the same as I stated.
Seen multiple people denied warranty claims even after removing the JB4.
So most of the actual questions I had asked in my messaging and emails were not answered in specific. I only recieved a generic email with a list of general information and excessive directions imo just to send the ecu and hope that it doesnt get sent back to me due to a misplaced letter or number in the address and loose out on shipping cost. Which the email states if anything is filled out incorrectly you will not accept it. Most of us could easily make that mistake since we are not Russian. that made it seem unclear, half hazard, and extremely non personable. To me it's a big red flag when a business makes it difficult to speak to someone directly over the phone and/or email that's not generic and actually feels like a true communication. I have yet to have an opportunity for that yet despite my efforts. Then the only way to pay is through bank wire transfer or swift. In my opinion it's a lot of drama and the complete opposite of what a business should do to recieve business and earn trust. And of course now more then ever its a huge risk sending an ecu over there right now. I know the political b.s. not your fault but unfortunately it's the situation we are all in together and it honestly doesn't seem like you guys care to make an effort to find solutions to work around it at all for the communityas a whole. I want to state this is only my opinion based on my own personal experience and I am not saying in anyway that your company has done anyone wrong in any way at all to anyone during any business transaction. It's just me voicing my opinion on the matter. In all honesty though it would be a wise decision to make an genuine effort so that people don't have to send their ecu across the globe. If you already are then that great. You should communicate that to the community. If not then say that as well. Either way the situation isn't getting any easier for people to feel comfortable sending out their ecu and if you don't capitalize on the opportunity someone else eventually will. Sorry if my statements didn't sit right with you but I say what I felt needed to be said. I truly wish you guys the best.
dealership can deny any warranty claims of course.
I am sure going through PPE will most likely be very simple and straight forward for you. They will be the ones doing the leg work for you. My experience was reaching out to femto directly.
"Vlad" is welcome to stay at my house rent free while they do what they need to do over here for the communityand their business! Free dinners as well every night! ?
I appreciate you taking the time to explain your position here and clarify things within your capability. I understand you guys have unlocked and cloned many ecu successfully, gotten them back to the states safely, and that is awesome. I really do want to do business with you however given the current circumstances as of today's date I unfortunately feel the need to wait for further advancements and the situation to evolve into one that makes things available domestically which will reduce risk and provide a conventional approach of transaction. I hope you can understand this and take it into consideration as decisions are made to grow your company and expand. Assuming that is a goal of yours. Thank you again and I wish you guys the best.
We have yet to know - nothing has been announced as of yet. My company is already telling folks to get ready to pause any type of product shipment to Russia.
I think the bigger challenge or risk is that insurance becomes even more expensive or that shippers decline to insure anything being shipped to Russia. That and even more delays.
