I'm also gonna get XHP because I've heard so many people swear by it

Thanks
Note you definitely need to do the adaptation period for XHP. They used to give you a popup at flash time, but basically, after the flash, do about 15 miles of city driving in D/comfort, then do some highway driving for about 15 miles in D and eco and comfort (eco helps with coasting and shifting into neutral), then go into D/sport for a bit to hold rpms up (just a few miles), then S/sport+ and let it rip! The most tangible improvement will be in S/Sport+. I went straight stage 3 and recommend the same for the most tangible difference from stock. There's zero issue for a daily, its very smooth.

Stage 4 is only for track use.
Well that was probably the best money I've spent since the bootmod3 license lmao

Car feels so much better. Didn't launch control yet because I have a question about the settings that maybe you know.

Set launch torque and torque scaling after launch. What should these be set on and what does each do? Thanks
