    Received some feedback, I need to make a revision to the throttle tables, will today and have new links in a few hours so if you haven't flashed yet you can wait for the new links. Thanks everyone

    Flashed 87 2.0b, coming from 87 1.05 base. Feels similar enough so far, but there is a tip-in issue that I’ve experienced while turning, may be what Mat is referring to above with the throttle tables.

    I came across the same post. Glad you were able to scoop it up. I'm hoping mine ships this week so I can hop on the train.

    The 2.0 Beta files are not on FM. They have been posted in this thread only. We are currently on hold for some new tunes as the ones from yesterday were slightly problematic.

    The same way you did before, except you select the tune file you downloaded from your "downloads" folder, or wherever it was saved to.

    You save the files that are for your ECU to someplace, like your Desktop. When you are in F5Flash and hit Flash It, it will pop open a File Open dialog window. From there, you just find where you saved the Beta file.

    I was following that dumpster fire for awhile. I ended up unsubbing. No measurable signal to noise ratio. All noise. A few of us may have many questions about getting the valuable paid for code from OV vault into our truck's ECU....but we ain't gonna kill each other doing it.

    Yup, the "grass" is blocking the signal.

    I would submit that dev thread traffic quality is worse than a poor S/N ratio... it's actually a very poor SINAD ratio. :D
