Very excited for trans flash !!!!

Anyone know what options are shown when you are in the write section of the tune? Is there another option? Like “trans”

Yes there is.

Like previous posts on here have said...GET THE TRANS FLASH! It is like a different car...Nuclear!

I also got the trans flash and the new stage 2 flash on my M40i today. Only been on 2 drives but so far I love it, I second “nuclear”!

Excellent. I will be sure to have a complete before and after review of acceleration for Stage 2 V1 vs. Stage 2 V2 and Trans Flash.

This. I look forward to seeing your results. Do you plan to have supporting HW such as downpipe/intake, I suspect this maximizes yours benefits here.

No downpipe, no intake. Have been running Stage 2 for 5000+ miles with no issues or hiccups. I would say it would maximize my benefits but if I can just run 93 or E30 and just a tune and churn out a low 12, I'll take it

I asked this question before. Maybe I missed it, is it available now?

Are you guys having issues putting down power with rear wheel drive?
I supposed those with X-Drive have a major advantage.

yes my Conti's hate me and the MP tune - and pretty soon they are going to hate me more when I move to Stage 2 and the trans flash in the next couple weeks

I am torn between getting a RWD or X-Drive 340i, just noticing with all the power these cars are putting down perhaps an X-Drive would be the better choice. I have ALWAYS hated X-Drive ....

honesty, a good set of tires and you're fine. it'll break lose in 2nd if you do a pull though...just a smidge. struggles a little bit from a dig, but...meh...i do more rolls lol

X-Drive is great for hard launches, but in reality, in 29K, I've run maybe three people off a light. I'll take the lighter weight, lower complexity, lower parasitic power loss over the 2/10 second advantage to sixty every time. Not to mention, my inner hooligan needs to be able to get sideways from time to time, and it's still fun to mat it at 50 mph and glance in the mirror and see a couple strips on the blacktop.

Might I add that the stage 1 on WA 92 octane will pull a GS-F from a dig?

B58togo · 01-10-2019, 10:08 PM

I believe it. They're porkers. The IS-F was an awesome car; the GS-F is a total fail.

There are two thoughts I have on on your comment.

Agree its a 2/10 advantage (maybe?) to 60 but when I look at other 0-60 times on draggy I notice I am right there with a lot of 340/240's 0-60 despite my weight being 500-700 lbs more (which is around 5-7 tenths in a 1/4 mile) and being similarly modified.

I completely agree with inner hooligan

but then again that's why I have the GT500!

On another note... just got my Trans Tune and Stage 3 Tune loaded

j1980mac · 01-11-2019, 11:20 AM

Anyone want to speculate? I'd love to see it push over 400WHP 450 WTQ...

Maybe not on a Mustang dyno. You have 93, but it's always humid AF in Austin. I say 380ish hp and 410-420 lb-ft.

I'm on the same dyno as I was before on the MP Stage 2. Outdoor temp is about the same (maybe a little less humidity), not sure about the DA, but it did 359WHP & 431WTQ then.

If you break 400 today I am buying immediately!

On another note where are you getting dyno? Very limited AWD dyno's over here and I pop into Austin a lot.

My professional guess for being AWD and on Mustang is....388AWHP 444AWTQ

j1980mac · 01-11-2019, 02:04 PM

It's an absolute monster!

372 WHP 501 WTQ!

From Stage 2 to Stage 3 is an increase of 70 WTQ & 13 WHP!
