For those in the GB, John stated that he will wait until he has everyone's packages ready and ship them all out at once.

I didn't buy during the GB so I'm hoping to get mine soon.

Im not worried, just making sure. Im still waiting on my SRT catback exhaust, so im in no hurry. I already have my nameless midpipe and im sure my SRT wont be in for atleast another month. And that is being hopeful.

Yup yup. Testing in my car fuel light comes on at around 2.5 gals and needle lined up with E is 1.5-1.7 gals left. John recommended to me when switching to E85 to top back off after running through 1/2 a tank.

When they are able to implement a flex fuel sensor, the mixing will no longer matter

First long drive on e85, East Rutherford NJ to Ocean City MD in one tank! That includes slightly breaking the speed limit on the way down....Got in to OC with fuel light on...swapped over to pump since theres no e85 down here within 100 miles and it started and ran like a champ. I miss the corn though

This is a dumb question, lol, but will flashing over to Visconti's tune with no other ecu tuning help fix my car's idling/throttle-stumbling issue after installing an intake? Also, are there different versions of the tune for the different intakes, possibly?

Man, the killing he could make if he made specific tunes!(For example: Visconti Airraid intake + Greddy Evo3 catback tune) I would pay him 1500 dollars for a semi-custom ecu tune rather than drive to a tuning shop and pay out the ass to them. Just a thought.

Hey Kamal - how's the car running now? Won't get mine for a while yet but couldn't help myself and have already ordered John's tune and E85. I know E85 available at Worongary and Upper Coomera but do you know of anywhere else on the coast?

Haven't been on pumpgas for awhile but prepping for a trip to the dealer. Taking it easy since I'm prob running a little lean on around E25 equivalent during the changeover but have to say the tune def feels better than I remember.

OK John let me get this right if you were part of the gb you can not get your license, cable, tune. even if you paid mid August but if I show up at your door I can buy one today? that dose not seem fare you need to fill the orders that have been placed before taking on more. you state it will be up to 60 day after 9/9/2012 to have all the items in stock how is that going to happen if you keep selling of your stock. I was not upset waiting until today seeing you post that you are willing to sell to non gb ers you state you will not send any of the tuns out and blame it on the fact that the gb was so post to only attract 30 people why didn't you put a lement on it if you could not deliver?

Can see your point Ken but on the other hand you have received a large discount to the non GBuyers. John is trying his best to sort out the situation for everyone, still needs to generate new business and said himself that the GB took him by suprise and has been much larger than he anticipated or intended. There is no answer that will suit everyone but the bottom line is that hopefully the product does, (especially with all the work he has put in to it) - whether it be now or in a few weeks time. Just my 2c's worth.
