MTH General Question...

Okay Synthia is almost done being made and I'm getting mod ancy already. I have a list of planned mods, and usually software mods are scary to me. So the couple of questions I have are this.

What is the software modifying? Air fuel ratios or what specifically? My first mod will probably be a Alta Cold Air Intake. And SC Pulley and crank pulley, if I can figure out how to do them. So in this case what is being modified? and it would be a 15% and 2% pulleies.

Oops I had one more question for you. When you do the software install, are you able to enable the alarm system on the car? I was thinking about installing it myself is why and if you guys are able to activate it via the software, that just makes it all that more qorth it in the end for me.

Have you guys thought about offering a group buy on the software and cables for christmas . I am sure a bunch of people would be up for that .


Thanky

Unfortunately thats in a different part of the ECU, and right now requires a $17,000 computer to modify.

Not to be nosey but what adjustments with the A/F ratios and Timing are made with the following mods? Are they more aggressive or less agressive? Just trying to get an idea. Also, can my mini dealer tell that the software has been updated? IE, is there a MTH header file in there that they can see?
