Default Beware: Chuck CoW is trolling LS1 Tech....

Got this PM after posting about a tune that I got screwed over on...

Saw you were having problems.... I don't get on this forum much as

I'm not a sponsor and one of my competitors has his customers trashing me on here for many years now.

If you have any questions about your vehicle, call me (I can spend more time with you in the evening) and

we can get you fixed up right.... This is a really funny

line of work to be in and you need to watch carefully who works

on your stuff.

Call any time if you have questions.

Chuck


Sorry Chuck, you are very good at marketing yourself to the uneducated, however your reputation precedes you in most circles. I have seen your tunes (despite the fact that you try to hide behind the tune lock) and read a LOT of the threads about the trail of motors that you have junked from detonation among other things.

If I were you, I would stick to selling snake oil to the waxers on CF.

Maybe you should call the guy since he is offering to fix your problem instead of bashing him over the internet.

Problem is fixed....it had stock VE and MAF tables on a supercharged LS6, already went through that in the thread. Spend some time and Google the man (A.K.A. 40+ degree timing advance god) and you will see this is deserved.

Oh, and he is not a sponsor while trying to solicit business here on LS1 Tech...should be banned IMO.

You obviously have no clue who this fool is to be saying these things. It would only go in the traders section if he actually did a deal with him or was screwed over on work done to his car. In this case it is deserved go to the vette forums and see ho much **** has to be waded through everytime he posts a new great idea or someone has a problem with his stuff. The thread get's cleaned up in his favor everytime.

Not that I would let Cow tune my car or toaster for that matter, If he tuned my car and it blew up and he wouldn't fix it and I had a complaint thread on CF and they cleaned it up, I would be suing Cow and CF for trying to cover for him.

For anybody who doesn't know Chuck Cow, you can google him or just mention his name here and trust me, it will not be good. There were some of the sponsors who are tuners here and they were bashing Chuck Cow for all of his tunes and how hacked up they were.

His screen name is "Chuck CoW", 13 posts since 2005 I think. Honestly, I was pretty shocked that he PM'd me, thought he had been run off of here long ago. That is why I decided to share the PM he sent me, some people are unaware of his record and he is trying to get business here.

Wonder how many unsuspecting people have taken this bait...once he gets his hooks in and you buy into his "I'm the tuning God" BS its all over.

I know this thread is old, but I am glad I found it. I was set on having him tune at least my A6 trans. Now after this thread & a couple on DigitalCorvettes etc I am thinking twice.

He's a troll and a dick on several forums. I remember talking to him 12-13 years ago about my car and he kept telling me what he was going to do to my car. I couldnt get 5 words in about what I wanted done to my car. He's pissed off so many people, and most of his beware of him threads get deleted on the only forum he sponsors now which is CF.

Buyer beware of tuners in general. Maybe best off buying HP Tuners and learning everything yourself
