    My bad, should have explained. I’m trying to use techstream as outlined in the post I quoted in order to flask the TSB before OVTune.

    I need the drivers for that, unless I’m mistaken (which would be nice)

    Ahh, missed that. I thought you already had the kit with the Tactrix cable. What cable do you have? I honestly don't remember what the hell I did to get it to work a few years ago. I think I still have the files somewhere, let me take a look.

    Assuming you have the tactrix adapter, you skip all the mvci stuff - that’s for a different adapter.

    I believe you missed the “non” part in his statement.

    I’ve got the tactix cable, is that all I need to use techstream for the TSB?

    I had to stop researching for a while to take the dog to the vet, didn’t get that far

    There hasn’t been a lot, but all the ones I have seen that exploded were sports with the 8” rear end. There was at least one guy that destroyed multiple sets of nitro 4.88s

    I’ve tried multiple times to download both versions of FM but can’t get past this. Any ideas?

    What do I tell the dealer so they'll do the TSB? And do I have to flash back to stock or will they just overwrite?

    Install BOTH the x64 and the x86 visual studio runtime.

    Use this link and don’t check the box for “Microsoft whatever C++” when installing OVTune software

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=52685

    I had the same issue when installing on x64 computer this past weekend

    Give it 200 miles or so and it should settle nicely, but the tip in should stay about the same

    I'm guessing those you've seen had oversize wheels/tires, armored, etc. Can't imagine a stock or near stock sport exploding their rear ends.

    …yes

    Well or the people that spin out and suddenly find traction but that’s due to explode anything

    Grabbed that Asus E203 at Best Buy today for $143 open box. Can’t remember who mentioned it first but thanks for the recommendation! Too much security build into my corporate Surface Pro to mess with.
