And the reason we never came out with a SST/JB+ like product is because they aren't good tunes. Do it right or not at all

Thanks my man! So if I go for the Pro; it comes with all of the toys that are optional on the enthusiast? How do we check for code via BT Tool or your software?

Yes indeed. And it's also going to be custom tunable-ready once we release the Dealer Tuning Software in Feb.

With the Procede software. Very easy stuff. No BT Tool needed.

uhhhhhh... now? You can order through the new website. Shipping is scheduled to start on the 6th. But things will probably start shipping out a couple days early.

Unlikely. The custom mapping software will probably only be available to qualified dealers/tuners. It's a bit too early to talk about specifics just yet. Still some things to iron out.

We didn't plan on extending that special deal to the new pricing structure. But give me a couple of days and I'll see what we can do.

If you want the option of running the NA map, it's just $50 extra. Same with Progressive methanol and nitrous.

Cheers,

I think I want one, but is it difficult for a novice to learn to use it to most of its potential? I might need to find someone to teach me...

lol.. You don't have to learn about any of those features. Just plug the unit in and drive. Everything is pre-set for you and the unit will autotune as you drive. You may not know what some of those features do. But you'll feel them- which is the only thing that is important anyway.

Yes, you will want to flash your DME back to stock.

what exactly is a "custom map" for $150 with the autotuning feature...? I don't get how that would make a difference

The beta v5 firmware will not run with the new maps we will be releasing met week. You will get a firmware/map mismatch error.

Shiv I think you need to explain the exact reasons for implementing VIN lock before you admitted there was one. From what I gather its due to some big new feature you haven't told us about?

Shiv is heading in the right direction Everything is just not on the table yet.. Soon enough though. Keep up the great work! He is doing what's best of the community... He is taking the time to bring us all to the next step for bigger and better products.

Next year is going to be a great year for the N54 community.

Thanks!!

Michael
