Thanx
Your ECU does not require removal with UMW.

That's correct. Kevin Sends you a hand held programmer. You can swap between multiple files. Don't know if Upsolute still requires you to send the computer to them, but on my 2001 I had to send it back to have the stock file restored before going over to the UMW team.

Protomotive

Mine was custom tuned on a dyno in Arkarsas by a bunch of Hillbillies...
But damn do they know their ****.

Mine has not stumbled once in about 15,000 mile of very hard usage.

I have REVO. Let's just say "free" is not always a good price.

I've never seen 1bar...maybe .9 once or twice.
Stock file is gone and replaced with a REVO version as it has been explained to me. Most of the time I run it in the "stock file" mode because it runs smoother.

Spoke to a guy on a local Porsche drive who had the 4-hour version and he was not impressed...at all.

So, if I want this thing exterminated my only choice is to send the module to someone crafty like Kevin.
