    Don't take it back to diirps. For the love of god.

    Just write that money off as lost. You will be better off as a result. Take it somewhere else to get fixed up.

    @RedDjinn didn't diirps do something to the throttle body wire on your black bitch as well?

    What was the fix? (Apart from not taking it back to them )

    yes, the pins on the ecu to wire harness were not right. They wouldnt make a proper connection, what i did is made all the pins with a very small bend (mind you was a stressful task as cant bend too much or clip wont fit back on). never had issue after that!

    Its the bunch of wires that go into your ecu, on side of battery tray. I got a pliers and put the smallest bend in the middle of all pins

    - - - Updated - - -

    I also cable tied the wires

    Have they tuned an MPS before via an Access Port, If they haven't and say they have tuned WRXs/EVOs i wouldn't go there either as the ECUs on Mazdas use a total different approach, especially ignition timing.
    oh and unless they have ATR that matches your AP they won't be saving nothing. Unless they are certified COBB pro tuners
