Once it finally dries up in a few days I'll give more feedback.

Everything just feels so much smoother all around, lighter, more nimble, and agile.. yada yada. Tune kicks ass.

on v1.1 with my perrin CAI I had the cam noise kick in at 3,500 and I already miss that a lot. Not sure if yours was the same or not Paul.
I have the AEM tuned intake and the cam noise starts arround 3200-3500. I personally would rather not have the noise, because my car is the AT and it downshifts into that rpm range all the time and I find the noise abrrasive. Just my opinion. Im glad to hear that we are getting some more hp. Can't wait for the AT tune!

Running v1.14. So after the car sitting for about 20 minutes from being home ( engine was already warmed up from getting home shortly before) I turned it on and heard sort of a muffled pop from the engine bay. Its Not the DI collar popping. If I just free rev it to about 3,000 it will make the noise again as the rpms fall to around 1,000. Doesn't feel like it wants to stall, but I do keep getting CEL P0456 ( Very small emission leak ) After about 2 days of clearing it it'll throw the code again and yes I checked my gas cap.

I have Perrin CAI installed, NA, full stock exhaust. I would do some data logs for john but my OB2 Port has a short in it and I have to push it a certain way and hold it for it to connect.

Also I've noticed to what sounds at least to me is exhaust backfire, again its all stock so its very silent. Just free reving it and I get a muffled popping from the bay and the exhaust. So idk

I'll see if she does it again later on tonight on a cooler start up. Hopefully the rain will hold off.

Hi,
I've just read on the support console that if you have the v1.14, you are to request for b2 or newer!
May want to check it out!

Got v1.14 a couple of days ago. Does not seem like that 6/28 update applies.

Thinking its just the cat warming up. Cant replicate the poping after a short drive.

Thanks for the Stage 2 tune. So far I like it. No problems at all. In the lower gears I get easily pulled by my friends Gen Coupe 3.8 R-Spec with CAI and cat back. But 4th and up I can keep pace. We had some fun on the way home after the fire works. Next mod.... final drive? Hmmmm

My mods so far: P&L catted header and overpipe, ARK front pipe with Helmholtz resonator, Invidia N1 catback, TRD intake, and of course the Visconti pumpgas 1.14b2 trd intake stage 2 tune.

I wish you lot would stop telling me how good this thing is cos I am still waiting

Am I the last or are there others that are still members of what was once the 'Visconti 8' club?

Looking forward to it as it sounds like it is improved in the mid-area where I would really like it :happy0180:

Edit ... Just arrived and looking forward to a flash tomorrow Thanks John.

Was one of the "final 8 club" member but I got my files 2 days ago.

I got sent the US based file tho. John said he will make an anouncement when euro based rom is ready.

I know many of you have had a considerable wait during the update rush, but I wanted to post MY experience so the new buyers don't get scared off over the drama posts. EcuTEK was processed and shipped out WITHIN HOURS of my order.

I submitted my tune request at 8PM on the support forum last night (Saturday), and received my tune at 7AM this morning (Sunday). Pretty damn impressive weekend-support in my opinion.

Fantastic service. Thanks John.

How can you distinguish them?
This could possibly the reason why the v1.14 file I've received is generating a CEL?
