Please do.... that's pretty well a sure fire way for them to release the tuner.


Kinda like everytime I store something and after yeaaars I throw it away, that pretty well guarantees I'll need it next week.

So about that tuning device shipping out.... lol

I actually do have a legitiment question, is the tuning device going to be like the Cobb Tuning device for STI's? Those tuning devices also include features which show boost pressure, a/f ratios, temp's, etc. They can also clear clodes and whatnot. Is this device going to be able to do those things? If so, i might hold off on buying a scanguage

That would be great but I don't think it'll be that way. I wish there was some digital, small gauges I could install.

I don't want the inside of my car looking like a race car wannabe so I don't want a bunch of gauges.

Having said that, I would at least like a boost gauge for tuning purposes.

For those on the east coast, it looks like there will be a Jan dyno tuning event at the end of March/beginning of June at Helix. For those who are coming from out of town, make it a double and do the dyno day, then caravan to NJ Motorsports Park for the Grand Am event. Jan promises that the Grand Am MINIs will win or blow up trying

There is so much I want to do; like striping my car, big brakes, but it won't be the same without the tune. Any updated ETA? Have any pictures what the device will look like? The suspense is killing me....
