I love it, and its working great. Best noticeable mod I have made, and works great with intake/exhaust and premium gas!

It will check and clear codes, but for LT's I think it will come back on over time... I could be wrong

Yes. The code will come back.

If Hypertech added the 02 sensor delete and the top speed limit removal, I wouldn't even hesitate to buy this thing.

I wish someone from Hypertech would get on here, and see stuff like this. So much more room for improvements to satisfy everyone!

Agreed. I'd like to go the hypertech route, but will probably go with Trifecta just because I need it to remove the LT cell and would like it to remove the governor as well....

Unless they have some policy about not messing with emissions codes (which I thought I read that somewhere??? but maybe not) I don't see why they wouldn't make it so that the CEL for the rear 02s can be ignored.

Finally got around to installing the tune today. Had to update once from Hypertech and it took all of a couple minutes.

Installed the premium tune with the VR and 50% shift firmness for now. No problems with the install and the car runs nice. The shifting is a lot snappier now and it plays nice with the VR and ported TB. No hesitation or bucking, just very smooth.

I'm staying with the shorties so no worries with the LT cel and decided against chasing E85.

For me it has enough features for the money and pleased with the purchase.

Awesome to hear! I think for the mods we have, and having autos, this is a great tune.

Thanks for the review...I'm still on the fence, but I'm leaning!

Has anyone drove in paddle shift yet? I drove today in it some and it felt pretty crazy... It felt good and bad. Good as in broke traction in each gear, but bad in felt like the trany could rip out.

Have to try it. What % shift firmness did you go with? May have to dial it back when using the paddles.

AUS10BMX · 10-13-2011, 02:19 PM

I'm still at 25%, thats all I have used so far.

It would be interesting to see if you took it back to the stock settings and see how it reacts.

I'm at 50% and was somewhat surprised at how it slammed when changing gears. (sport mode)

I don't think I'll go past 50%.
