Do you have an exhaust? I strongly recommend it as well.

What gets upgraded in the wastegates? Are the wastegates controlled by the ECU? Do you mean the turbo lag when you talk about the muddy feel?
And yes, I have the FVD Export exhaust. and she's very loud...in a good way!

I have the FVD 575 program with k16/hybrids, billet WGs , ported stock headers,GT2 Ics , Vflow intake, Fabspeed exhaust.
I havn't dynoed yet but car feels amazing. The FVD program is outstanding for smoothness and response.....Ilke it and the new system looks really easy.

I am also interested, does the flash change if you have tiptronic trans. (04 X50), can you still raise the red line to 7000? Do I need to find a dealer? or this is done at home online was my understanding. Thanks

FVD Programming on-sale
I just found this FVD Programming on sale on Ebay (140145046625) for $200 less than FVD direct...so I've gotta pull the trigger and get it. Thats $1395 from Speed Design. I hope it's the same as getting it from FVD....they say it is. With the $200 I save, it'll offset some of the cost's for the diverters I need. Looks like I am crossing the line into Mod-land, the place where you never find enough Hp.

Updated Q&A
What if I purchase upgrades that require a software upgrade thru another tuner?
FVD will offer a program upgrade for 50% off retail, if you had previously purchased the software thru us.
Does FVD have an exchange program for turbos?
We offer discounts (nearly 50% off retail) on brand new (not remanufractured) K24/26 race turbos if K24 (x50's) are used as an exhange core. Contact FVD directly for more information on our exchange program.
Will your programming work on my Tiptronic (X50), can redline be increased to 7000?
Tiptronic programming and an increase in redline is not a problem!
Does your flash load include a BMC filter?
While our level 1 kit does, our flash load program pricing is for the software upgrad only. The filter is avail thru FVD at a retail price of $197 USD.
Do you have numbers that compare to other programmers (GIAC, REVO)?
In order not to start a tuner war, no I do not have comparison figures. However, our response to this thread and our programming has been extremly positive. I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE all the 6 speeders who have purchased programming thru us since the start of this thread to post their opinions. The team at FVD is working hard to branch out into new markets and open the eyes and minds of Porsche owners who not to long ago, might have dismissed FVD as a serious tuner. All we have in response to this is - Don't follow the pack anymore- Lead it.

let's say you have level 3 and install the intake do you have to reprogram? or like you say it's adaptative ecu and no program update is involved? or if there is what do you charge for upgrade program?
thanks.
thanks.

When running the k24/26's I would recommend a 5 bar fuel press reg. It comes bundled with our level kits and all the components, including programming, are designed to work in concert with each other taking into account the increased demands of the 24/26's .
