Stage 1 Flash tune with MG Flasher.

Other than the power increase, the cold start delete has been a sublime enhancement. Start idle goes to about 1k for 1/2 a second then immediately to about 800 RPM.

Careful with that stuff (Iron X). Don't think it is to be used too often and excessively...
I usually use it 1-2 times a year and only where required (typically rear end, sometimes lower parts of the doors).

First time using it - might use it every other year at most - the smell as well as its amazing ability to clean the wheels tell me it's not to be used often.

Trying to understand. So...............

Are you saying that when backing up, and lights in automatic, it's hard to see an image in the back up camera. And just by turning the light switch to off, you can get a great backup picture at night ?????

If so, great find.

It is super smooth. Almost too smooth. Sometimes I like getting hit in the back of the head by the headrest but it is a pleasure to drive. I had the JB4 which had power but not 100% predictable or as smooth. I have the JB4 off now, but will switch it to do Meth control only, once I play with the flash settings some more.
