EURO Rom is here.

Anyone that got sent a US Spec Rom please request the tune again.. High priority is fine.

Auto tune is slowly rolling out but some people were bitching so I'm investigating some stuff.

Remember no one here is waiting for their first tune.. Everyone has a running car. Anyone that purchases a tune and setups up a ticket correctly the first time with a dump file gets their tune right of way.

I'm beach bound , woke up 5AM and worked for 3 hrs so I wouldn't piss off my wife today.

Enjoy the tune

Sorry to reiterate what everyone else has said, but first impression on this tune is amazing, and I've only tried the pumpgas flash.

1) No more idle stumble with hard braking to a stop
2) No more loud deceleration/dethrottling noise when letting off at 2000-2500 RPM
3) I had what I'd call "torque converter seeking" when doing part-throttle upshifts into third and fourth gear (i'd lose 2-300 RPM, and then it'd snap back up). That's been drastically improved.
4) Smoother across the board, dip's less noticeable, more yank up top.

You're my hero. lol

Stage 2 v1.14 b3 arrived, thanks John.

I notice you sent me stock intake, does this mean this is the base tune for a aftermarket header, which you require data logs submitted to get tune based on running mods?

You were sent a tune for a stock intake because you have zeta intake tube..

Agreed. I never piss or moan bc I have a great running car either way. I know the update will happen when it's ready and I always enjoy that more than the last. Keep up the great work John Nd Rich!

In an effort to maintain consistency, I've been trying to take logs at or around the same ambient temps. I usually do early morning or late night.
Right now I'm up against higher temps and rain.
Does it matter if I take logs in weather that is say 10-15 degrees hotter?
Or should I wait a few days when conditions are better?

I would suspect 10-15 wouldn't make a huge difference on a NA car.

"Reasonable" consistency will always be preferable.. just to rule out as many variables as possible. But it is rather difficult to control the weather too, soo..

But as @Trashed675 said, unless you're having problems, or experiencing wide variances/results in the warmer air.. 10 degrees shouldn't have too much impact.

Pump gas v1.14 feels like running e85 on v1.1... Really awesome. Better mid-high range power and better fuel economy.

More improvements are in the works

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

Not saying getting aftermarket parts wouldn't help even more with performance, but you're current tune gives more "umph" all around than most AM parts are putting out. That being said I'm only using a perrin CAI and I've been multiple 86's much more heavily moded and I love how my car runs the most. The Linear smooth power is incredible now even in 93F weather, its beautiful how it performs... Thank you John.
