social media tuner

A person who compares themselves to Competition motorsport engine & electronic calibrator. Typically known for social media popularity, disabling important engine fail safe parameters such as detonation (knock) sensors.

These individuals lack the mechanical and electrical experience of working on said competition vehicles. They do not own level C (or better) technician tool boxes, completely incapable of tearing an engine down & putting it back together to even the simplest OEM specifications.

Typically these “tuners” carry themselves with a high pride in their “flame maps” and “gapping” the competition. When they in fact cannot even gap piston rings properly.

If you need a knock sensor to tune a car you are just a social media tuner.
