But beyond that, it fell on it's face top end. it didn't have the same midrange power. It didn't rise to the occasion on the down shift. Even though they CLAIMED better economy, I never saw it.
But with the new tune from KermaTdi, which I've had for about a month now...I love it.
almost non existent lag
power off the line
linear power throughout the rpms
pulls clear up to about 4500 rpm
downshifts are snappy
The modified Eco Pro mode is USABLE now, and ENJOYABLE.
I'm seeing a calculated increase of economy from about 37mpg, now up to 42....consistently
even though I drive way more aggressively now...for SOME reason. 
AND!!! I'm still completely street / emissions legal.
Oh yea, and no more getting thrown to limp mode, no more check engine lights.
Do yourself and your car a solid. Get the tune that was done right... |
You said that the modified ECO mode was usable now, what do you mean exactly ?
