Robert, 0-80 is probably not the best way to compare anything. The current 60-130 seems to be the best compromise. The main issue with 0 -80 is the fact you start at 0. How fast the car leaves a standing start is arguably more driver related that ECU related and will skew the times. A 60-130 run removes any issues with traction off the line and is a better comparison of overall power....
- E63, very fast and I only had ½ car length at the end of third
- Z8 BMW, very fast. The first race I had him by 1.5 car length at the end of third. Second race he started before the light turned green and shifted into second before me. He had me by 1 car length at 95MPH.
- M4 Coup. Smoked him, no contest.
- 997 TT, I had him by 1.5 car lengths at the end of third.
- Jaguar XK, not a chance, smoked him.

After months of deciding which solution to go with, I finally went with GIAC. I was strongly considering Upsolute. I couldn't trust Softronic since they are not around for too long. So my decision was based on going with a company that's been around and well recognized. Thanks to GMG, Fabryce and David (tech) for flashing my car. =)..
Can't go wrong with GIAC!!!

Softronic ECU
Has anyone on this forum have the re programmed ecu from softronic? I am seriously considering going with softronic since the ecu does not have to be removed... Any opinions are greatly appreciated.
Thanx
