Well what can I say that has not been said already. I was able to take part in the Northeast Dyno Day in Albany yesterday. Having Shiv personally tune all of the cars was fantastic. I have never been on a dyno before so this was a special day for me.

My car baselined at 272whp. After the Procede I was at 329.2whp. If you have never participated in a dyno day, it's a great experience and I would have driven 8 hours instead of 2 to get there. (Nyulak). My first test drive I noticed the immediate response under boost and I was thrown back harder than before. The highway test on the way home made all of the difference. Every gear pulls stronger and harder than before. It actually feels like every gear feels like the one before on a stock car. In 6th, you would rarely need to downshift to get the passing power needed.

Some people made some complaints about traction and I will not lie, traction is considerably less IF you use the throttle like an on-off switch. In 1st if you floor it you are definately going to spin the tires. If you moderate the throttle and gradually get on it, there are not really any issues even on the stock Run Flats.

The one thing that impressed me the most is the "smooth"ness with the PROcede installed. The car feels just as smooth as stock, just much more potent. Boost comes on real early like stock but theres just so much more of it. Torque out of the hole is very impressive and honestly it is very powerful. I was hesitant about putting any software on the car because I thought it was already fast enough. After this, it can honestly be scary.

Shiv is top notch and knows his shit. After picking him up at the hotel yesterday, it was evident after 5 minutes that he was someone I was going to trust with my car. He started speaking another language and lost me by the time we got to the dyno He is very intelligent and believes in what he sells. He tunes EVOs, Subies, Porsches, and now BMWs. And guess what...he has one of each of those. Being a salesman as well, if you do not believe in what you sell you are a shitty salesman. The guy was on the forums on his cell phone answering PMs and then again at the Dyno shop posting answers to questions. (I have pictures to prove this)

So all in all...a great day. Met some great guys from the forums, took some great videos and pictures. (Will upload later)

Also got my first kill on the way home...An E39 M5 was driving like an idiot...I got next to him and we slowed down to 55. He honked 3 times and we took off. I started out in 3rd and right from the get-go I was taking him bigtime. By 1xx, I shut it down and gave Shiv more props. The product is great, the service is great, and the experience was great.

If anyone is considering software for the 335, look no further than the PROcede. Yeah you may have to wait a couple of weeks but let's face the facts. Nothing good is ever easy and if you want the best you wait a little. I would be happy to provide anyone with test drives or answers to PROcede questions for people in NJ or NYC.

You forgot to mention the part about Shiv speaking in tongues.

Homo-eroticism is not necessary on this forum. Just kidding - Until the other tuners can prove their vehicles can survive a 12 hour torture test, I'd rather trust my vehicle to Shiv.

good write up, just ordered my last week,still waitting for the car, on the way.......

[DanMardik]

Best write-up I've read so far!

CHU ARE THE MAN!

[BoostedBMW]

Congrats. Sounds like you love it, have fun and be safe.

[MacAttack]

Good write up. Glad you had fun with the M5. He must be thinking about trading in right now.

[TahoeOG]

nice right up bro. I'm hapyp to read about your experience. My procede should actually be arriving this week. I ordered it only, and patiently waited and found no need to contact him via email or phone, i just fogot about it. And one day i saw the whole amount was taking from my checking account, so i called the next day to ask if it was shipped and he informed me this week it will ship. That's all i need to know. I have a manual transmission. Can't wait to Upgrade my Bad BOY

[Raider]

Hahaha nice title, i was going to word it exactly as you did...

[AR230WAKEBOARDER]

Well you sold me on it. I Couldnt wait any longer to order. Ordered mine today even though I wanted to wait for v2.0

[mesier1111]

Nice write-up......wish I had the money right now, really wanted to experience shiv first hand. Even if I had the money, my car ahs been the shop for weeks, and will be for weeks (fuel pump victim). Ah well, I guess I will have to live vicariously through you guys

[Straz M3]

I waited so long for the car (1st one in the US with Navi). I ordered my car April of 06 and got it September 26. I was so used to waiting because I knew I had ordered EXACTLY the specs I wanted and it was going to be worth the wait. Same thing with the PROcede...I knew it was the best product and I waited however long it took which was only about 2 weeks. Shiv MANUALLY assembles these harnesses guys. It takes 30 mins to do ONE HARNESS. He works harder than you think along with the rest of the guys at Vishnu. If you want the best, wait for it. I promise you will not be dissapointed.

The ease of changing maps through a laptop will let you upgrade no problem with a serial cable.
