Thread: Why dont they make the timing commander/iccu/happy knob anymore?

I was just curious why no one makes these anymore because I think its a great idea. Obviously you can always adjust timing with a regular tuner but this would be very convenient if you were trying to dial in a new setup so you didn't have to go reflash the tune just to add or subtract 1 degree of timing every single time. I would buy one if I could find one.

Id be interested just let me know. I understand on a technology level they are obsolete but on a conveniency level they are not. When I was just re doing my tune after putting my intercooler on it was "do a run no kr,pull out laptop hook it up, re flash pcm, retry for kr" and I ended up doing that 5 times. Would have been a hell of a lot simpler to do a run and turn a little dial and do another one. Then when you find the magic number you can pull out the tuner.

Well another benefit is that I'm currently sharing a tuner with my buddy so if he has the tuner I can still play with my timing till whenever I'm able to get the tuning equipment back. There is a bunch of benefits of having something like this besides just being lazy and impatient.

It's currently installed in a gtp center console so I can send you the whole thing just pay me for shipping. I'll box it up and get a quote.

Do you have any idea if it works lol and wouldn't it be a lot easier and cheaper to take it out of the console and just ship it as is? I would very much appreciate it but either way I guess my console has a crack in it so I'd be willing to pay for it.

I can take it off and send it if you'd prefer, shipping would be less.

That would be great man I'd really appreciate it.
