 Steve Dinan has been hacking car computers for 30 years and has no problem sharing. He's got no problem telling you how he does it.

 I started working with digital engine management systems in the early 80's. We hacked the chip to make it possible to tune the engine. We're in the Silicon Valley.

 didn't know anything about software back in the day and the computer science guy knew something about software. It's inexpressible like the current ones are. We literally took half the chip and change all the numbers by 10

 variable valve lift, variable cam timing, variable ignition timing, and variable cam timing all work together to compensate for the fact that engines only have one spot to peak torque.

 octane is a factor in engine performance, especially in turbocharged engines, and it can have a huge impact on the overall performance of the car.

 I love the fact that race cars are so much more complicated than street cars. The amount of work and testing that goes into a race car engine is insane. And the fact that you can make tiny little adjustments to every part of it

 The device manufacturers have come up with a standard communication protocol that all car companies can use and now they're writing traps to catch piggyback boxes and replace the factory equipment.
