Thanx
Your ECU does not require removal with UMW.

That's correct. Kevin Sends you a hand held programmer. You can swap between multiple files. Don't know if Upsolute still requires you to send the computer to them, but on my 2001 I had to send it back to have the stock file restored before going over to the UMW team.

Protomotive

Mine was custom tuned on a dyno in Arkarsas by a bunch of Hillbillies...
But damn do they know their ****.

Mine has not stumbled once in about 15,000 mile of very hard usage.

I have REVO. Let's just say "free" is not always a good price.

I've never seen 1bar...maybe .9 once or twice.
Stock file is gone and replaced with a REVO version as it has been explained to me. Most of the time I run it in the "stock file" mode because it runs smoother.

Spoke to a guy on a local Porsche drive who had the 4-hour version and he was not impressed...at all.

So, if I want this thing exterminated my only choice is to send the module to someone crafty like Kevin.

Guys, something very important that many of you are forgetting..

What prices are you paying for these upgrades? - crucial information that will help newbies on making the correct choices!
