    Don't know if you saw my latest comment in my PM with you, I know you're busy. Can I upgrade at a later time to Pro from Tuner level or do I need to buy Pro now? Also, I haven't tried yet, can I purchase self tuning now or wait until after this weekend? Thanks

    Are you also planning to offer a trans tune for the second gens, or is our transmission control different?

    No one is asking them to create bad tunes. But you would have to bet they have an idea of what is possible and targets. I can’t imagine any company would start development and simply hope something comes of it.

    I'm sure you're correct, but you know how (most) people get.
    They say they're thinking 15hp/15tq, but then they'll only achieve 10/10, people get butt hurt, and start calling them liars, overpriced, etc..

    They're playing it safe, and I don't blame them.

    this is what i was trying to get at^

    also, people with superchargers need to understand that they are going to see very little power increase over the stock tune. superchargers are not like a turbo, you cant just adjust the waste gate control and turn the boost up, you have to make a physical change to the pulley size, and you can only go so high with the boost before you start having belt slippage and efficiency issues. the biggest advantage here, comes from removing the rev hang for manual trans tacos, and firming up and adjustment of the shift points for auto trans guys.

    if i had to take a wild guess, based off of what some similar platforms are getting, id be pleasantly surprised with a 40hp bump, but im expecting less than that. and maybe another 10hp for the boosted guys by leaning the tune out a little, since the stock one is very rich.

    Right?!

    I was thinking they'd hit 12-15HP, and 5-10TQ.
