Default Getting the Vivid Racing Flash!

Ok I'm getting the vivid racing ECU flash and hoping I receive what it speaks of. I guess I will be the guinea pig, since know one has tried it on the forum.

Yeah, before and after dyno is key - that and traceability by the dealer.

Someone in the ISF crowd just tested this product with dismal results. I would read through this post before you spend $$ on this product..

If this gives me at least 30Hp and 15Tq boost then i might believe it and might just get it. But any lower than that then its not worth my time and money.

I guess if many people want me to do I will try it for the cl community I will try it see the gain for GS models and then report back. Give me some time to get a Dino together for my car.

Ok so I won't be able to dyno first until next week. This will be three pulls one with exhaust closed and one with exhaust open and the last for whatever I guess. Then 3 weeks later will come back and do it again and see if there is any gain.

Ok reviving an my thread getting the dyno test done this weekend. Plan to do run with exhaust closed in sport + mode then open in sport + mode and last open in normal mode. Will post up video of it and the results this will be without the Vivid racing flash. Then after driving 200+ miles will go back and re-dyno and see what the results are.
