Anyone on this sub-forum have a canzoomer?
 
What do you think of it?

Have you ever gotten it properly tuned for our hot/humid conditions?

Is it worth the trouble?

Thanks for your input.
Looking for some way to kill the time between now and when the warranty runs out and I can supercharge this sucker.

Whoa... I totally missed this thread. Unfortunately, I'm no help. Sorry.

I got it when it first came out. It was a big headache.
Lots of tuning will be required to get the most out of it. Not to mention, with all the flash changes I'm not sure if R-flash is harder/easier to tune it.

You'll need a CanScan or equivalent to pull the data, then the extra cable for the canzoomer to load/change maps. You'll need to remove it if you ever take it in for service.

I gave up and sold it after a few months. I went with the Greddy turbo and it used the emanage (canzoomer is basically an emanage) which also had problems. Ditched the emanage for the Interceptor-X and I'm running good now.

I say wait for the warranty to run out and then get that s/c.

Any other thoughts? Anyone else around the gulf coast have one?

I've got a little under three years to go before the warranty runs out.

I think Sam has one (8 is enough). You may want to try sending him a PM.

No, I got the Canscan unit, not the canzoomer unit. I am not to sure on the canzoomer kit

Hey Sam - are you in town this week? If you're not tied up, I'd like to meet up with you maybe tomorrow night....

I have one. I had it dyno tuned with a Midpipe, resonator, and Cat delete pipe. I saw max increase of 19 over stock at close to 9000. Most of the increase was over 7500. Trouble is, that Canzoomer box is pretty well useless below 6250 because the ECU will "fix" any changes you make at less than 6250 and WOT. I got tired of the CEL from the Cat delete pipe (and ricey rasp) and took the exhaust off. The Canzoomer unit still seemed to have some possitive effect, but when the weather got cold my ECU went nuts and started pulling timing so bad I eventually took everything off. The ECU is just too much of a control freak. We either need to break the code (RB already has but is still developing) or use something like the Intercpetor X which is a stand alone system.
