Why, is helix doing RMW tunes?

Ahhhh, I did not know they did that. I thought Helix was working on their own tune some while ago. Perhaps I'm mistaken. (won't be the last time...)

Flash tool shipping to Toronto, Canada?

Awesome news! I hadn't checked on the Flash Tool in a while and it sound like it's a reality now.

Count me in, Keith Mashinter, if you're able to either ship to Toronto, Canada, for a remote tuning (there's Pfaff Tuning here in Toronto that has a partner with a dyno) OR if you're be in Buffalo or Detroit sometime this spring (except I'll be away in May).

I tried the www.RevolutionMini.com site but it still seem to be down.

Thanks for all the work to make this much anticipated tool a reality.

Very much interested in this tool (if it works! hehehe)

Sign me up: Daniel Parker, 2010 Clubman S

I'm up in SF, probably stick with the generic tune until I can get some upgraded parts on the car (it's brand new now)

Cheers

That must inspire great confidence in the 103 who have signed up that this product has had every possible scenrio thrown at it.

Or is there a huge discount on the advertised retail price on page 1 for this R&D team.

Good Luck with it this week

Dimsport says the problem is with the MASTER software which is what I use to code the file. They say a fix either today or tomorrow.

*** At least we have a solution to remote tuning*****

oohhh, well now that its in context it makes much more sense. I was under the assumption we were talking about the tool itself seeing as nothing else was mentioned specifically except for Dimsport...

Easy folks, let Jan work, he has been busy and away.

All good things are better when you wait, so wait!

Don (yes, I am on the list x2), I can wait a bit more.
