Is this for a new purchaser, guessing it will be a minor upgrade $ wise for those of us who already bought both tunes?

Edit: Ahhh, I see, a kit so there is prob a new sensor involved. Wasn't sure if this would be able to use existing sensors / ECU being able to figure it out similar to adjusting between 91 and 93.

I've been asked not to email flashes to all my customers until we understand a little more.

So I'm thinking I'll send files to 10 people and see how that goes first.

Who wants to be in on the 10?

Let me know

Thanks

John

Ill be a guinee pig, unless its the same file you sent a couple days ago. I already have that one flashed. But, I can do it in about an hour or so.

My ECU just got back from a vacation and definitely needs a flash.
