That means that, with normal throttle, you are shifting at 2k RPM or below. It might be a decent idea for mileage, but it is a lot less responsive than stock. Most people with the Alpina flash say similar things. Since software to read, modify and flash the TCU is available, people have loaded the stock flash, and the Alpina flash, and blended the two together to keep the M and S modes of the Alpina and have a more stock like D mode.

Thanks for the advice man, where would I get this hybrid alpina flashes? |
interested in hearing more about this as well. I've been running the Alpina flash for long time and over the yrs I've gotten used to its behavior in D but wouldn't mind learning more about this new hybrid Alpina flash.
