Yes, still pleased with the performance gains, but I find the phone app to be completely underwhelming. I now only use the app when I want/need to change the boost level. The data collection mode and boost gauge on the app constantly lose BT connection, so is pretty useless.

When you're running the Sport Performance Tuner, do the sport displays reflect the additional HP and torque?

The scale will not change, if the highest possible reading was 400 it will remain 400. I think that was your question.

Not quite, I was just wondering if the sport display numbers reflected the actual HP and torque. So with the Sport Performance Tuner does it show bigger numbers?

I think probably "yes" but I'm not sure how the sport display numbers are calculated. I always wonder how closely the sport display correlates to the dyno data.

My "guess" is the display is not particularly accurate, more like the old vacuum guage MPG indicator, pull high vacuum must be getting low MPG. Less like an actual measurement of HP or TRQ is taking place, I admit I have no actual knowledge of how the system works and I've been wrong before.

I see. It's only for the $30,000 mod that you get a warranty.

they warranty this "sport" tune for 1 year if the product fails. Thus why a replacement was sent and his new tune works fine.

What defines the unit failing? Would throwing codes count?
