Oh, my bad...sorry; didn't know the conversion. Thanks. In that case, I would recommend only Shiv's default v2 TQ Curve settings or even a few % below the default TQ Curve settings. As you know, I'm running the default v2 TQ Curve settings with 93 octane.

I installed my V2 yesterday and I can definately feel the power difference. Also, the power delivery is smoother than 1.4x and a most of the turbo lag is gone. All this make V2 a good value for $150.

I'm waiting for Shiv to release the 2.0.2 map, which is supposed to me more agressive and with less boost decay. But even with the 2.0.1 default settings map, the power difference is significant.

I am pleased with V2.

Look at the posting above, +1 !

In case you have issues, use my posted settings for v2.0.1 here on the forum. Just don't increase any torque settings. It's that easy. Don't create a problem when no problem exists.

FWIW - I forgot to reset my values after beating the car on track for a few hours. I'm now running pump gas with 100% values.

No problems as of yet, but keep in mind I drive like your 90 year old grandma while on the street.

The road course - umm, different story.

I must be smoking crack, I dont know if the difference is noticeable other then the smoothness.

Sorry to thread jack, but if you roll down the windows, can you hear a loud air noise when building boost? Sounds sort of like holding your hand partially over a wetvac. Up till now, I've never heard or noticed it.
