B58 Digest - B58 Latest News and Developments

I'm doing a Youtube Series and calling it The B58 Digest. I'll post vids from time to time with the latest updates and developments as I see them come out, and of course give my opinion on how things will go. I'll keep the OP updated with the latest video and we can use this thread for ongoing discussion

Latest Video >>>

Kern! I watched several of your videos yesterday. Top rate information and presentation style! You are my go to guru for b58!

I found one of your comments interesting about custom tunes and ability to reduce some of the noise in an OTS map. Are there tuners that you like who do the whole dyno tuning process in CT area?

Everything is typically done remotely, so no need to find a tuner locally. You just need to find a dyno shop and set an appointment with the shop/tuner for ~2hours or so.

it's my volkswagen track toy. Although I should say "track" since it hasn't been out in a few years. Hopefully next year I can get back in my groove.

Great content, have you ever ran into needing to remotely sync a new dme to the vehicle?
I sent my dme to get unlocked and UPS lost it. Had to buy a new one and need it to work with my car. Don’t want to pay a $500 tow and 400 to sync it
Any help would be great

Not my DME but I have had other modules get programmed by coders. Usually they need the original to clone it but they may be able to do something without it. Hit up Nate's ECU Repair in Pennsylvania, I've used him a few times in the past.

I'm liking these videos Kern! I hope the law ends up on our side eventually and we can get rid of this locking that manufacturers do.

It'll never go away and fortunately it's not illegal to tune your car. It's just the OEM trying to protect their intellectual property just like any other software manufacturer would do.
