Over-Rev Documentation

I'm not sure about a report, but you can have them hook up their PIWIS or PST2 and just go to the ECU information screen. It will show Type I and Type II over revs...like the screen below. It is stored in the ECU and can not be erased or altered (I'm sure some could hack it, but not just anybody). Oh the screen shot is from durametric, but it will be similar (and yours will be Motronic 7.8)

Contrary to what people have been saying. My tuning system and programmer will adjust the count to zero everytime the ECU is flashed..
Being that I can contain up to 8 different files including the stock file, once the file is loaded into the ECU the counter is reset to "0"
We are not talking about Type 1 or 2 over-revs.. On a case by case situation, I can zero and reset these if need be.
However, if you are taking your car in for service, you have to remember to load you "stock" original file back into your ECU.. If you drive the car in with the performance flash you will have to do some explaining.
This is why my system is a "Better solution" vs other flash program from other vendors. This system allows the flexability to load multiple files.. Such as a valet file or 100 octane pump gas file.. Or if someone craves upgrading to larger turbochargers the existing programming becomes the low boost file..

Robert the counter needs to be ZERO period.. That's the default.. It cannot be more..
Just to make sure we are clear, this has nothing to do with Type 1 and Type 2 over Rev counts..
My programming will return it to Zero every flash..

How will that keep the dealership from not knowing? The dealership will know that something is going on, but they will not be able to prove it, right?

How is the tech going to know if it's ZERO.. They aren't interested. They get paid to look at the screen. The screw says "0" As long as the owner of the vehicle installs my programmer and load the first file which is always the original "stock" file the entire file gets re-written.

It will not void the warranty if you remember to flash in your stock file..
Hear are a few warranty stories..
One customer (a Rennlister) had purchased my programming, 6 later under his CPO warranty his vario cam module went. He flashed in his stock file took the car in to the dealer and had the engine repaired under his CPO warranty.
Another customer had a cylinder head spring a leak. Casting flaw in the aluminum exhaust port. The customer flashed in his stock file, drove the car into the dealer and drove it out with a new cylinder head..
I can't stress enough that you have to remember to flash the stock file in..

15 seconds.. Insert programmer into OBD2 port under your left dashboard. Turn the key to the 1 o clock position.. Press toggle button for 3 seconds and watch for the green (pass) LED light.
On the same note, when you take you car into the tire shop you can load in the Valet file (another 15 seconds).. You can also use this file when you leave your car in the garage and go on vacation. Your brother in law that comes over to take your car for a spin will have a "rude awakening" A customer did the very same thing, his brother came over and took the car for a spin, when he came home a week later his brother confessed and said that he "broke" the car because he could get past 45 MPH..
If you want to load a 100 octane race gas program, you can do so when you have filled the fuel tank. When you run out you switch back to the performance pump gas file.. Again 15 seconds to load between files.
