I got my tuned almost 3 wks already, no issues at all but excitement, i lost traction 1st and second gear in sport mode and my rears are quite sticky with bridgestone potenza RE 71R tires 275/19s.

Wow....I was considering the RE71 as my next tire but now, I may have to reconsider. I may go with a stickier "R" compound tire.

No kidding I thought I might move the RE71 after my current set-up but if they aren't holding traction with this tune then I might be looking elsewhere as well?

I have the tune with stock rev limiter. As others have already stated, there is quite an improvement at mid range and some at the top end too. I didn't dyno mine before (mainly because none of the shops I emailed bothered to respond) but it definitely feels quicker doing some runs from a roll. I still have my winter tires on so I can't really get after it too much but I can tell a difference even without launching it. I have no doubts that it added the HP that RR racing claims. My guess is the Cali guys who dynod before will validate this and I'm eagerly awaiting their results.

RR-racing tune with 7200rpm. feels great. and its still learning. got to drive it a bit today. feels even more fast since i haven't drove the F for 4 months now, it really gives you that "head back into the headrest" feeling during acceleration. Mich PSS tires actually did a great job with traction. i had no traction issues in 1st and second as some of you guys were talking about. a bit at the end of first but send gear catches hard. 0-60 feels like 4 flat . 3rd gear seems shorter, 4th seems short too.

im looking for another brake upgrade if that tells you anything

Has anyone dyno the ecu tune to quantify actual gains? Or anyone taken this to the 1/4 strip? Looking forward to non-subjective results. My car is going to be on jackstands next week and the timing would be pretty good to send in the ecu.

I guess it's just still too soon.
I'm so excited to see how the numbers compare the RRs.

I want to see what a completely stock F with a tune does.
Although im itching to do this cat delete mod as well beforehand.
Fuuuuuuuu!!

I made my baseline pulls a couple of days ago. ECU being delivered to RR today. Should have it back Thursday. Plan to drive for at least 500 miles then re-dyno. Will post them up as soon as I can.

Awesome, I can't wait to see what your car will gain.

Cars and Coffee Saturday?

Thanks
