Guys… there’s no attempt to be vague… there simply isn’t an answer yet. We recognize there are reasons to do it… I track a M3 and spend my fair share of time on its limiter (even with a raised redline), but there are also reasons for not doing it. Our goal is and will always be getting things out of development and into your hands as soon as they’re ready and proven.
Shankenstein… yes, overclocking has its issues, but it is an option in our tool kit and is inexpensive. Unfortunately it leaves a footprint, involves soldering inside the ECU where mistakes can be costly, and may or may not be viable “at home.” It works, but it’s not a direction we’re currently pursuing. Remember that we don't write anything to the OE ECU; we look at how the OE ECU implements the limiter and manipulate that functionality… “extending” a map above what the OE computer is programmed for via the Unichip rather than rescaling or overwriting anything. The goal is to remain PnP unless it becomes too costly or complex to do so.
GavinAnt… the maps compensate for the altitude, but we have a sister shop in JHB and they’ve done a couple of cars already. Give Heinrich at SAC Kyalami a call and he’ll you hook up.
All… thanks.
Cheers
