Submitted a ticket last night for an updated Stage 1 tune, had the update this morning by the time I woke up. I was not expecting such a quick turnaround.

Thanks John!

Yeah, you can. John will need to tweak the tune file for their particular dongle ID but you can certainly use another person's cable/dongle.

What are the parameters for logging? How should I do it?

I turned my car on (after letting it sit for the 5-10 min so the cams can adjust) i let the car idle for about 30 seconds as it logged then i pulled out of my driveway and drove normally for a block or two a few stop signs, then i did a few redline wot pulls went back to the driveway and let it idle for a few seconds then stopped the log. Now something i learned from john very important fully turn traction control off when you are logging. He asked me to do my first log over because i had it on. So i did it all again with it off he said everything looks great so im guessing my procedure for logging is good!

Same here. Submitted mine right after dinner last night, woke up to the email notification on my phone. Got to test it out on the way to work. Nice work John @Visconti

It should say it in the PDF on the website, but from memory you should get to a safe straight road and take it from roughly idle to redline in 3rd or 4th(if safe to do so). If you have an issue with a specific rev range, try doing data logging just in that specific range to replicate your issue.

@Visconti, John this new STG2 tune is great, could immediately feel the difference in mid range pull through the gears.
Booked to run dyno tomorrow to get some data logs.
Based on Torque Pro, I got 10kw more than my highest achieved to date. MAF 154gs and AFR 11.9 at 7400rpm full throttle.

Flex Fuel guys will likely see a tune update tomorrow

I'll be doing tunes in the AM, then on the dyno for the rest of the day

John
I think soon. No rush. 1.14 is badass and current e85 map is nice. Can't wait to see what John has come up with next.
