Has anyone every put a security type tune on their car with up rev? I do this on the Diesel engines I tune up here for some guys.

The reason I am also a bit more worried now is the fact that I have spent alot of $$ on this car over the winter, I will have to talk to my insurance company about seeing if I can tack that onto my premiums.

I'm pretty sure the 5 basic maps of UpRev have it all. The valet map and the no start map. If you really want to swap maps every time you park somewhere maybe? Better hope the person doesn't know how to change the maps

thieves steal Hondas/Acuras not overpriced 370Z's. Theres no profit for them in the aftermarket but stealing a Type R engine or Civic Si to throw in a piece of crap hatchback is profit for them in the underground market.

I agree. 370z parts most likely take a while to unload/sell. Theives want a fast return. Better chances of getting cought.

One of my friend's S14s was stolen. He got it back in decent shape but the datalogger did log a 160mph run.

Also he had a ton of tools and a firearm in the backseat that somehow weren't stolen.

I use the "kill" map whenever its going to parked awhile in the airport parking lot. ie, often. It makes me smile to think of some punk with a fancy gizmo to jack my frequency scratching his head wondering why it wont turn over.

what are the odds? who cares! it makes me feel better
