Nice, I haven't put my wheels on the car yet. Just coated them with Gtechniq C5 so I'm going to let it cure overnight.

But I took a #SpeedyTuesday #TETuesday shot earlier. Just don't want to show anything until they're on the car haha.

Figured out the rubbing I heard when turning was because my wheel well liner lost some rivets... D'oh

Replaced the stock 255-45r18 Pirelli Centurato run-flats with 245-40r18 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+'s. So much better. Much more comfortable ride and a lot more grip with the extra 0.8 inch wider contact patch.

Flashed Bootmod3 stage 1. Lots of hiccups, not even sure if the flash went through. Can't get car out till tomorrow morning though so I'll check and report. If I hear burbles, it worked.

I am considering this tune down the line. Right now, just waiting and see what other people are saying about it.

What kind of hiccups? That's scary when you're flashing.

Did you have a charger hooked up?

No charger. All together, 25min with my troubles with only half of this having the ignition on. Also preface I have 10+ IT experience and currently work with electronics so it's not like I didn't know what I was doing

It was from a MacBook Air. First the vehicle information wouldn't read so I had to restart engine on a few times. Then the flash didn't download. Then the flash button didn't do anything 2 times, so I had to close the agent and web page without knowing if it flashed. After the flash and turn off / turn on engine, the agent was stuck on 100% so I had to kill it. My maps shows the stage1 as last flash and car starts. I cleared the warning messages. Going to bed now but tomorrow will test and report back. It seemed it went through, just the web page and MacOS agent weren't really working out the box.

I have read nothing but good things for Bootmod3, it's just I had a crappy experience with the process, not product.

You can buy the plug to turn the loose wires into a USB port, then use that to power a Qi charger to go under that new mat of yours. Very easy install.

Or just use as another USB if you want for proclip or another dock.

Yes, but since there's already a USB port (seen in my photo), is there an advantage?

Yes, if you want to keep the visible one free for things like USB lossless music for example.

Ordered Bavsound Stage One, plus two extra tweeters to add to the rear door mids in the doors. Also ordered the M-Performance rear diffuser. Kinda bummed it's only one outlet, but that's that they give you for the diesel.
