It's really hard not to jump on this immediately, but please keep giving feedback and results so we can all make great decisions. As I build my car for track season next year and hope to compete in time attack this could be a game changer when getting after the z06's out there. I'm curious to know if this ecu 'learns' like our factory model and can compensate for additional power on a car with I/H/E.

Yeah I know. Price gouging for USDM ? Extra cause I was "first request"? Markup for extra ECU vs tune in existing ECU?
Really I don't know, but I really don't care because they UNDER promised and OVER delivered.
Would do it again in a heartbeat and judgeing by response here I could get my money back easily through secondary sale, so yeah I'm good with the price I paid.
(But if any one DOES end up getting them for 200.000 JPY, please consider a donation to defray my initial cost in this little discovery).

You get an "extra" ECU for two reasons 1. Your car would have to sit there dead with no ECU while you ship it to Japan hav them program it and ship it back, and reinstall.
2. Because Tune comes on a ECU computer (thus giving you your origional stock ECU AND THE REW ONE WITH THEIR TUNE, you could SELL THE ECU with the tune and go back to stock , thus getting your money back from the initial purchase. If was on your origional ECU, then you could never get your money back because if you sold the ECU with the tune , you wouldn't have one to run your car!

Sorry apparently word press thinks "shifts" are "****"
My AFR now swings from 12-18 which is a much wider swing than the 14-16 ish I was getting stock.

In exactly 3 days of driving it's been 100% reliable

Normalish type of throttle response but faster, BUT ALL APEXi throttle control modes still work on my car.
No issue in "purple" or "red" mode with throttle response! (Though I am having problems going straight to plaid )
APEXi controller makes throttle response very fast, with THIS ECU and APEXi it is SHOCKINGLY FAST!! ( no kidding, rolling in Gears 1-3 in manual mode on tranny and APEXi Red or Purple mode , I spin my 275 rears far too easily in sport mode, that's a fact. It hits so hard it will spin on 1-2,2-3 up shifts in manual mode @ WOT.
Defiantly have to do some learning my self as there is much more capability to harness and master.
When I first got the car it was "stupid fast" I'd get stunned how quickly I'd hit triple digits (often times "whoa , how'd I get that fast that quick kinda thing").
Since then I learned the behavior of the car and adapted. With this ECU Mod it feels "stupid fast" all over again.
