The only downside to running Hydra is if you are F/I, you cannot swap back to the factory ECU like you could with an NA tune. One thing I wasn't a fan of was the inability to use the OBD II port and Cruise control. I actually never realized how much I used it until it was gone, LOL. CC I can live without, but the OBD II is a PITA for states that require OBD hookup for inspections.

Must be really nice though with the live data, EcuTek is such a PITA with map uploads. One thing that does help is if your computer has a USB 3.0 port, connect your DESkey to that when flashing new maps, its way faster than using the conventional USB port. I swapped my cable/key around to test and there is a noticeable difference in upload time.
