    Sounds like you made the right decision in choosing a life partner :) Congrats, you'll love the tune once you get it all loaded up. It's not too hard especially if you have help in the family, but if you do get stuck lots of help here in the forum.

    Now time to think about the next mod you can obsess over w/ your wife before your birthday rolls around!

    have to run the ECU ID flash. Mat will send you new Tune based on ECU info you send him. Likely your ECU info is stock and Mat has stock factory tune if you decide to return to stock.

    I was under the impression that you could save your stock tune so you could go back to it if necessary.

    read that somewhere too - but did not see it during install. Pretty sure Mat has them all on file.

    I just shot him an email to clarify. I'd rather have the copy in-hand than have to wait on Mat if it becomes necessary to revert.

    you can request a OEM file from me.

    Have you guys who experience this on 1.04 87 tried 91 yet?
    1.05 will further improve this

    Just one question to all who have the ovtune. Does the tune hold gears to keep it in 6th in hyw when doing like 75 or is it about the same and if head wind or slight hill it will down shift to lower gears.

    It works better than stock, but does not get rid of the need to shift down to 5th and 4th gears above about 70mph.

    Excuse my ignorance but where can I get this 1.04 version? I'm pretty sure I have the 1.03 now and I can't stand how sensitive the throttle is in 1st gear.

    Same place as 1.03 . 1.04 will fix the issue you are having
