Hey Guys,

Just thought I would get you Mac users onto this, having worked for Apple in Service for the last 10 years and now in IT at a school, the amount of Viruses etc that are starting to increase in the Mac world are pretty scary..

Problem is the amount of times you here people say, " I don't need anti virus software I got a Mac "

I work for a private school and we use the Corp edition of this, they have brought out a free home edition.

Download the App from here:

For more info on Mac's and Viruses check out this link

Anyways just some info for you Mac users

Indeed; it'd be a good idea to get that kind of stuff on other people's Macs who don't know too much and you don't see often... Even just a simple layer of protection. Especially the people who run Admin accounts and just type in their password blindly whenever the box pops up (or don't have a pw and just hit enter, shudder)

even users with standard accounts can get infections lol.

We use Symantec Endpoint Protection on our work stuff (inc macs), its just that the people who use macs are more likely to be complete herp derps who treat their computer like an appliance (i.e. a tv)

OSX is an insecure POS to start with, I laff'd at Apple's usual method of denying anything was wrong then quietly issuing a fix for it; this almost brings them onto the level of MS from nearly 10 years ago!

Agree, and most of the "new features" in Lion are things that are either gimmicky, useless or are catching up with other operating systems; the launchpad "feature" in particular made me lol; you could do the same thing in Windows 95 :D

The difference is, as always, that Apple integrate the features better than anyone else.

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
