    Yeah. I would recommend reviewing the info on a computer while looking at the vF software. If it doesn't jive then, that is okay.

    Many folks have traded because of the tune.

    If you want, I can get an edited tune over to you for a bit of $$?

    I like all the tunes
    I’ve tried probable 10 and 4 are ones I paid for
    But they all have the common “slack” or it may be called aggressive tip in. If yours don’t have this then it then I may be interested. I also want to try and work I that torque limit like you said before, just don’t know if I have the know how

    If you bought some, I would go back to those folks. Most everyone removes the 1st and reverse torque limits.


    If all the tunes feel off, then you might want to check that things are good under the hood. Plugs replaced per the maint schedule?

    If all is good, then try the Learn Value Resets after the next flash.

    It’s funny you say that, because every time I flash I always see the reset values button but never click it

    Give them a shot. After the flash and test start, go back to Ignition On and hit all three. Note that you need to pay attention to the text prompts as the green progress bar will not go the whole way across.

    Oh ya. I have 6.0. Ready to upgrade to pro. Excited to be able to flash different settings when I want.

    1st gen - it's got a built engine, a turbo, and waaaaaaay too much to list. 3rd gen - basic-bitch lift, S/C, Pro Wheels
    I searched this thread, google, and the VF Tuner website and couldn't really find a definitive answer. I know the software only works with a windows pc, but is there any known issues when using a Microsoft Surface Pro? Asking for a friend who is looking at purchasing soon, just wanna set her up before she drops the coin.

    It works great on bootcamp. @Shellshock has all the info.

    I would reach out to Matt at OVTune. If it runs windows, I would assume it would work. Also running on a Mac with bootcamp. Not sure what the Surface uses.
