Sharky flashed me, and I'm ok with it.
 
In fact, I loved it. After Akkurat installed the Europipe (stage two, loud), Sharky offered to let me test drive the GIAC flashed stage 2. I think this may be a marketing tool that has proven to be effective, because I can't imagine anyone trying it and not buying it. It simply blows me away that you can achieve that much grunt with a 30-minute upload. The little bugger just goes like stink. And the Euorpipe is just what I was hoping for -- very aggressive without approaching insufferable, and no drone detectable to my ears (and I was looking for it, at several RPM ranges, going up 280).

Huge props to the Akkurat crew -- I loved my car before, but I love it a hell of a lot more now.

Glad to hear. Yes, the flash-trial is a great marketing tool indeed. Who's going say no, please flash me back afterwards. Not only is the car flashed, but your mind is flashed too :D

Sharky, you might offer a mobile flashing service. Drive a canteen truck around, offer free coffee and donuts while people wait for their flashing done ;)

Heya Fred,

James and I love that blue.. It's rare to see that color on a Turbo. Now it's super fast too;) I'm glad it all worked out and I totally agree the Europipe doesn't drone at all!

PS It was great seeing your reaction when you came back:)
