I give my post about 5 more mins before the "HIGHER POWERS ABOVE" remove it because DS is a sponser on here. I really could care less if they are or not, because taking someones money and offering a product that is only 80% ready is not right in my book.
So, come after me all you want because I will keep posting this untill the day DS gets there **** right...!!!
BTW, Have I ever said how much I like Vector Motorsports canned tune???

For me that's a win for the DOD surge battle, but certainly not the war. Go Taz!

hmmm.. mixed bag of feelings... I'm running the NO DOD tune...
it does definitely shift better...
BUT...
it doesn't seem to climb through the rpm's as quick anymore...
even in neutral... normally, I'm able to blip the throttle and it'll hit up to 4000 rpm - QUICK... but now, I have to hit it harder/longer, and it still will only get up to 3000-3500 rpm, slowly/not as quick as before...
may have to look into removing the TM from certain parts again, but leaving it in for the shifts...

While they no longer make up pretend dates or progress on support on their website, I did catch where (a scant week or so apart) they wrote that there would not be any 07+ support because of that small market and an answer to a direct question in their forum about a tool being released, where it surely coming soon...
The Diablo people learned from the Clinton's; say whatever you think people want to hear at that moment and pretend you never said it when called on it.
Even Lew, the staunchest supporter of Diablo (at least the staunchest not on their payroll) was pretty fired up about the idea of ditching the reduction in torque in his tune. Says something right there about the usefullness (or lack thereof) of their current LS4 release.

hehe... thanks (i think... haha)
actually, these new tunes do not ditch the torque reduction / torque management - it's actually putting more of it back in...
what they did for these new tunes was set the TM back to the stock/OEM tune settings...
