I got a "kick" out of this.. Tachi was so excited that he "broke" into his inlaw's place last night (he had a key) to retreive the email and load the flash on UMW programming unit. He a Mac lover, had to go to the inlaws and sneak a quick PC download to get his FLASH upgrade. That's priceless..

Question for Kevin,

Does the flash raise the rev limiter beyond 6500rpm?

Kevin, I have seen one company advertise a "TCU" flash in addition to the ECU for tippy's. Is this necessary? Seems redundant with the ECU flash.

polar, If you want the RPM raised I can raise it. BTW stock is 6750.. Typically I raise the limiter to 7000RPM's

Cannon, I don't see this mod a benifit until you get to 700HP... And at that point a tippy rebuild to strengthen the box is more likely.

Kevin, I have posted many sheets in the past. Email me and I can send you a few.
