Is the stock ECU easy to remove, or are there any Tuners near Atlanta that can do the flash?

I looked on the GIAC installer list and there is a shop near Atlanta. I would check them out and give them a call. Look on www.giacusa.com for the complete list.

Just keep in mind, the software is VERY new...so you may catch them off guard asking about it. I'm not sure if GIAC has sent out a newsflash to all their dealers yet about it. But, you can definitely call and I'm sure they'll do whatever they can do to help.

Removing the ECU is a bit of a PITA...it's under the rear wing and decklid assembly so it's not quite as easy as the older cars. That's one of the reasons we (and GIAC especially) worked SOOOOO hard to make it an OBDII flash.

Yes, they are available. I just don't have a dyno graph to show a baseline on the standard TT. We had installed the prototype Tubi Race exhaust on it before it was flashed so the dyno sheets I have are with the exhaust.

I think they boys at GIAC were flashing a TT yesterday...I'll see if they can chime in with the results.

Can we see that dyno graph? I don't think letting the cat out of the bag will hurt anything.

Does the ecu have a flash counter?
I assume you guys now have bootloader? Hence why rollout took so long.

I just got a call from the GIAC dealer here in the UAE that it should be available next week. How long does the tune take to install? Placing an AM exhaust/headers system shouldn't affect it, right? Thnx!

To complete the flash takes about 30 minutes. It's all done via the OBDII port, so it's very quick.

AM exhaust/headers will not hurt...it will just make even more power! You're going to love it!

We're completely in the entire DME, which is why we're able to port flash and utilize switching options.

The rollout on something like this takes a long time because we need to create a flashing system from scratch. In addition to that, we offer items such as post flash code clearing for our dealers to expedite flashing and keep them from needing to purchase a PIWIS just for removing codes associated to flashing the DME. We created our own data logging tool for development purposes, something that isn't offered by anyone else. Lastly, writing and implementing all of the switching libraries in a new ECU type is also a very tedious task.

Everything done 100% in-house by the GIAC engineering team.
