Yesterday. They release a update for stage 2 and 3 map.

Just flashed the Stage 2 v1.1 map and went for a drive. Shifting seems much better, feels like I get to use each gear more.

Sound great!

I found out how it works from the FB post. Maps are automatically updated but no notifications about this. I'll definitely try Stage2/3 again

Doesn't sound like many people have jumped ship into purchasing this?

Mostly due to price and the flash being new!!

Once they offer individual maps and a few map revisions im confident others will buy!!

It's still winter time for most of the US. I'm guessing by April there will be a bunch of people singing praise.

I personally haven't read enough feedback on it yet to make a decision, although once I'm sure another revision or two comes out it will be good enough for me to spend my money on it.

Yep. I was waiting on this for a while but being forced to pay for a "super" license has kept me away.

Exactly why I chose not to purchase as well after waiting all this time. It's just dirty of them to do that.

swreefkeeper · 02-21-2019, 12:01 PM

I bet if people never saw that the 6hp was cheaper and had other options no one would be complaining. Maybe they will eventually only go with the full license just as BM3 has done. One price and you get all maps. Granted one is a tune for your engine, and one is for the trans but I think their price is right in line. Especially once they add more capabilities, being able to tune your own etc. Bm3 did not have the capabilities right off the bat either and look at what a great open platform it has become.

Now I haven't bought the license and tried it yet but I do plan on it. Once I do, I will report back and let others know how I feel about it.

Just to add to the reviews, I have stage 3 partnered with mods in my sig and am very happy. Shifts are much quicker and smoother, depending what setting you are in. The newest revision does help the car drive more like factory, instead of shifting through every gear extremely quickly.

With stage 3, sport+ and S drive mode will not be for everyone. I almost never use this (due to extreme shift points) on street but I do manually shift in sport+ all the time for the increased shift firmness.

All in all, I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys pushing their car. Comfort is much smoother for daily driving and the shifting in sport/sport+ makes the car feel like a different animal.

harkes · 02-23-2019, 08:04 AM

Tried V1.10 stage3... It is still a bit weird I think. Sport+ is better but Comfort isn't shifting until 1900rpm. I am back on stage1 again.

bdragon46 · 02-24-2019, 09:29 AM

Stage 3 is for racing and spirited driving, not daily. The car shifts at points where I would shift if I was driving a mt. I love how it drives and have no complaints

harkes · 02-24-2019, 07:14 PM

As I wrote on their FB page... I'd love to see a "Stage1+" = Stage1 with the shift speed from Stage3.

You are right that Sport+/S is for the race track - all other modes on Stage3 could still be used daily.

Have you tried Stage 2?

I bit the bullet and purchased the super license since ive been struggling with the torque limiter issue.

Car runs GREAT now!!!!

badbread · 02-25-2019, 04:58 PM

Latest stage 2 map revision is just about perfect. Shift points are dramatically improved!

Eschmacher · 02-25-2019, 05:30 PM

I'm really hoping we see a customization license in the future... I'd like to see some things like no auto shift to 1st when coming to a stop, and I'd like to edit the shift speed of each config manually.
