Now that's some horse$hit. You need to explain to them that the only way they could have possibly fuel starved it is driving it harder than any valet ever should. You better believe I would be stirring up a $hitstorm with their boss.

Ugh, I wish there was a valet mode OEM.

Does the UpRev provide a valet mode?

Yes, UpRev does. I am looking forward to Ecutek releasing an updated racerom that has valet mode capability.

Not that I valet my car much, there aren't many places to valet 'round here anyways.

Even with valet mode, I would be hesitant to valet unless its one of those "mandatory" places (which I have refused before). They are just as or possibly even more likely to ding or scratch the car as they are to take it for a joy ride :ugh2:

Mr. onzedge and I ate where we had to valet so he parked his car at my place and took mine for the dreaded "mandatory" valet. It is so busy where we ate they just parked it up front and it never moved.

How do you fuel starve a car parking? Was valet sliding it around?

yes sir :tiphat:

up rev includes 3 modes

1 - tuned mode

2 - valet mode - only 3k rpm or 40mph max I believe

3 - kill switch mode - car will not start

Added a little Anthracite Grey PlastiDip to my rear emblems. (And yeah. I know the "Z" is crooked. Fixed after picture.)

After 4.5 hours:
