Getting GIAC software installed right now.

Sitting at Matrix Integrated in Portland waiting for my GIAC software install. Very excited to feel and see the difference. I'll update later when finished.

Well, unfortunately they found a faulty code for my fuel pump and therefore didn't want to complete install until I get that fixed. So now I have to wait until next week before I can get it in to the dealer. I'm disappointed but I guess I just have to wait a few weeks to provide a full report.

Current mods only include an aFe cold air intake, upgrade to M3 wheels 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 rear with HR spacers 5mm front and 10mm rear. Also dropped on HR sport springs. Hopefully next spring I will get an exhaust and after that...intercooler?

Thanks for all interest.

Bummer, you won't sleep for a week. Just kidding. Looking forward to hear what you have to say. Seems like we have lots of good tuning shops here in the Pacific Northwest.

That's a good thing! Be thankful the pump didn't fail and strand you somewhere. I would suggest purchasing the map switcher as well.

Once you get your flash you'll be wondering why you didn't do it sooner!

Yes this is a good thing - get the new pump/fix done now, then get flashed. Avoiding headaches in the future = good idea!

I'm impressed Matrix has the ability to check your HPFP (fault code), I've been considering the GIAC install by them.

We should have a file ready to go for you when you head back to Matrix next week, as I believe we have most of the latest file revisions already.

Pretty sure the program they use to flash the car has the ability to check codes, clear, etc. I got a code from the dyno when the shop didn't turn off the traction control first, my shop cleared it with the giac software.
