Gearhead EFI Forum

Anyone here a member there? I want to download some files from this thread, https://www.gearhead-efi.com/Fuel-In...Information-4D. However, you have to be a member. I registered on Friday and have yet to be approved.

Re: Gearhead EFI Forum

Just curious, why wouldn’t you be patient and not complain on an unrelated forum ?

In his defense, the registration process on that website is pretty lengthy. I totally understand wanting to steer away scammers/hackers but there are far better ways to go about it.

I believe I waited over a week to get access for downloading. I have accounts on a good number of forums and have never had that experience anywhere else. It was long enough that by time I did get access, I didn't even remember what rabbit hole I had traveled down to want to download a bin from there in the first place. I could see where someone who was actively trying to make adjustments or get a good base tune going would be a little impatient and begin questioning if they were even going to end up getting access.

Re: Gearhead EFI Forum

ULTM8Z got them for me. Thanks!

RE being patient, their own messaging suggests that 24 hours is longer than it should take. 48hrs is more than reasonable. And 72 hours later, still not approved. The site seems like it is about dead, possibly for reasons such as this.

I had the same issue. I eventually emailed an admin and they got me set up. They filter a lot of free email accounts.

Make sure you read the rules. If you dont make an intro post and set your time zone correctly you could be purged or flagged as inactive. Here's the email for Shannen who helped me out.

I rarely post there, but it's still a tremendous resource for me on tuning.
