Just need to send me the proecu log file, and I send you a license update for your dongle.

I'm completely new to tuning. I have an AT GT86 that is still completely stock. I've read about flatfoot shifting, launch control (does that work on AT? how would it) but it seems that most benefits are for MT cars.

I wanted a MT, dealer here doesn't get them til next year and I couldn't wait.

1) Will I be able to flash my car?
2) Will I benefit from a flash, what will it do?


Yes, I'm that new and yes, I don't know jack about tuning.

A lot more features for 6 speeds.

6 speed tunes also get more updates from me because I have limited access to autos.

Yes you can flash your car

Flash will pick up more power - nice bump in midrange.

I like this one, is nice to have one map with just the tune.

Slowly sending it out.

It's VERY time consuming to push these tunes out..

Every tune file needs to be customized for each car/dongle.

you're a machine. can you give us a brief overview of how flex fuel will work? Is that what will allow us to use pump or e85 without having to switch maps?

No map switching needed...

I presume we'll need to get the GM FlexFuel sensors in addition to the tune.
