Personally, if a large number of my posts were deleted from a thread, I might start taking a less abrasive tact.
The much maligned import tuners tend to provide free datalogging and tune tweaks as part of the off the shelf tune package.
I can't say any of the tuners for the EB have come out and said they support that. Is anyone offering refined tunes based of your data logs as part of the base purchase of the tuning device/license?
Every engine is unique and is going to hit slightly different parameters. I feel more secure knowing that somebody with knowledge I don't have is reviewing a couple logs from my engine and optimizing based on what is actually going on with my car. Throw in a couple alerts for things like knock so I know when there is trouble brewing and I am happy.
By the same token, it is cool to watch people building 2000 and 3000 hp engines, but that is so far from the realm of what I want to do it is irrelevant. A custom build down to specialized bolts is not as pertinent to the average enthusiast as the tune they can live with day to day.
Bottom line, there is a tradeoff between power, reliability and emissions. Something has to be sacrificed. 2000+ hp builds are as relevant to me as the curb weight of the next Bugatti supercar. Give me something that provides enough confidence it won't blow my engine, has some extra power attached and call it a day. Others might want to push that envelope further and take it to the line or beyond. It looks like we have enough tune options that every mentality will be encompassed and you can truly customize based on your level of risk acceptability.
If you really want to take it a step further, maybe some of the forum members will start posting their data logs like happens in the loljdm world and we can start getting some mass subjective analysis on who is and is not doing the right thing. Unfortunately, that might detract from the hyperbolic popular conversation.
