I have also the FVD Flash, my fuel consumption when up 50% after the flash ! I hope FVD can fix it !
My car is know back too stock !! and I hate it !!!

Revotuning claims that the fuel consumption is lowered after flash, not sure what FVD say ! 50 % up is 50 % too much !

1.0 bar solid heh? Do you have a k24 car or k16? What other mods do you have?

I recently did a flash and am seeing no where near 1.0 bar solid.

Received my FVD shipment (flash + BMC filter) yesterday, reflashed today and just took it out for a spin.

Preliminary observations :
- stronger midrange
- indeed 1.0 bar as of 3rd gear. By then things are REALLY flying
- fuel consumption seems to be OK so far (see a couple of posts up)

Was lucky enought to run into a Z06 (530 HP model). He was up for racing and I let him go a couple of lenghts off the lights. Then I kicked in myself just to see whether I could hang in. Basically, I was expecting to be walked, but I ended up being able to keep up with him, really impressive.

So far , so good. Need to keep on monitoring the situation.

Whatever flash you do, make sure to ghet wastegate springs on any K24 car. It makes a big difference.

How about the 1st and 2nd gear? Also 1.0 bar ?
Do you have an upgraded exhaust as well?

I only saw 1.0 bar as of 3rd gear, not in 1st or 2nd.
No upgraded exhaust. This is my daily driver and I'm an exec.
The car is already flashy enough, don't want to upset the employees (too much).

I am very happy with my FVD flash. I raced a friend with a new viper and started pulling on him after 110 mph. My car has the k24's.

I have stock diverters, would upgrading those make a noticeable difference?
