But there will be a group buy here for them later this week - and not by me.

They look like they're going for $320 on Crawford's website. Cut into that and you got yourself some more customers.

--- not that you need anything more to do !

Love it! Do we need an updated map from you, or just run ECUTek update to get the autoblip/map switching?

Update from me.

It's not ready.. I don't even have it yet.

My next update will contain two flashes.

Basically you pick which you want

Full SD Tune

Full MAF Tune

And of course will be littered with all the new RaceRom stuff.

When you're pressing on the brake with your right foot, if you hit the clutch, it will blip the throttle to help rev-match downshifts, like on the 370Z.

For those not entirely familiar with the differences between a speed density and MAF tune, what do you think the advantages/disadvantages would be on this car for each one?

I found the below link that was pretty helpful in explaining the differences between the two, any additional insights from John or anyone else would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Going FullSD will allow my tune to maintain the same flat AirFuel Ratio even when you change to a different intakes system.

Sounds good! Am I understanding you correctly that you'll provide each of us STG1 owners both files that we can choose to flash at will, or do we have to commit to one and keep going with that for future STG1 updates?

I understand the difference between the two, but based on what you know about our cars, would you say the MAF would be better unless we're going FI and adding a shitton more power? I don't forsee going FI until after my warranty is shot, so I'll be sticking with Intake/Exhaust/STG1 tune as far as performance upgrades are concerned until then. By then, I'll probably need a custom tune from you anyway.
