Sorry but this statement is not true.
My last dyno tune was in Apr 2011 (212kwatw). I take a LV every week and all is good
You hear a lot of happy people who are impressed with a kido tune because they've never had their car tuned before with mods. Call it the placebo effect.
Plenty of people out there who get their cars dyno tuned and also log.
But saying issues galore? Issues might occur after some duration because maintenance isn't kept up on the car? It's a lot better than having issues because the latest reflash is still not up to scratch causing the car to run rich, boost spike, boost stutter, poor economy, not shifting properly, pinging, det etc...
Guys don't jump on what I'm saying, at least see reason. I didn't say every single dyno tune would have issues, I said that if every single person with a dyno tune logged their car there would be a lot of issues across the board. Of course there are some people who will have none, I didn't say that it would be every single car. What I was trying to get at is the potential of finding issues would be a lot higher among a user group who generally run logs on their cars, and the percentage among customers of remote tuners would be a lot higher, I don't see how that doesn't make sense.
I had my car dyno tuned by Matt in November and to date there have been no issues with the tune itself, of course other than my 1st gear issue as mentioned. I would not get a remote tune personally and have not to date, have had all my tunes on a dyno (not including one revision from Matt).
Final thought is no matter what kind of tune you have done, you need to be regularly monitoring your car and maintaining it as even a perfect tune can turn sour if everything is not up to scratch.
