I've asked xjohnx to make me another form to help track the people that want a updated tune file.

Hopefully this will help turn around time.

Because it's certainly confusing keeping track of forum and real names lol

Good idea John!

Can the form show the current version # as well as a brief blurb of what's changed, so that people can decide if it's something they need?

I wish there was some way to automate the workflow you go through to make each file for each car, then just have some online page that we authenticate to and can pull down whichever version we need on-demand. Not sure if the ECUTek signing process even allows something like that to happen.

I will need to put on my 1000+km quick to get it ready for my flash! Which I am SUPER pumped for. Plus I have the Airaid intake so I will need the flash that "fixes the bog" too. I am excited for my car, enough things ordered to hopefully give it the nice 20-30hp bump that it deserves.
Should we complete the break-in period before getting the tune?

I applied it after 500 miles. I kept it under 4K up until that point, now I'm at 800 and I push it into 5K on occassion after it's warmed up. I'm gradually getting it up to Redline by the time I hit 1000.

Honestly though, I would've applied it even sooner, but I didn't get my cable until that point so that's when it went on. You can still do a proper break-in with the tune in place.

You can send logs if you want - but I can not guarantee how soon I'll be able to review and respond.

John,

Can you bump me down the list and wait to send me the loaner cable since my car is at the dealer. Don't want you to waste the time and send it to me
