Im about to reinstall mine tomorrow when i get my car back.

They did a update on it. Ill let you know if i feel a difference.

I was wondering something similar.

I got the Helix IC and thought it'd catch on, but no one's running them. Did I miss a thread or something?

sd390r · 10-15-2008, 03:03 AM

theyre still around LOL

its just an older tune and not as widely talked about / advertised as the jb3 or v3

pretty much everyone has the jb3 or v3 on here now days

helix is constantly updating their existing attaches... just havent heard of any major new updates

pm eric@helix for info

their main tester, Art, threw a "warranty gone" code with their 29.2 friendly tune. at that point i kinda stopped following.

Art thru a warranty code due to his HPFP failing, the 29.2/v81 maps are well within limits of what the dme is looking for.

The reason for no drastic revision is that the "Original" Attache Version 1 had all the features and tuning parameters as the newest releases ie TPS scaling, AIT scaling, affordable pricing etc etc. We updated FOR FREE all the original Attache users to the newest 29.2/V81 compatible software and hardware changes. I suppose we should start calling every minor change we make(for free) a newer version to keep interest up?

munters · 10-15-2008, 06:42 AM

maybe not a bad idea.
You know people forget quick...
and the younger the people the more they "yell" for their product. (always the best solution avail.)

Helix is a great tune and I would recommend it. I think a step in the right direction for them would be to offer a PnP solution and to have their users post up more dynos, etc....

Which piggyback box does Helix use (which Aussie brand of box)?

Does the Helix Attache still bypass at least one of the solenoids or is it finally "solenoidless?"

I am a happy Helix user! Mark, any additional updates since the last revision? Can you let us in on what you're working on?

The Attache never bypassed a solenoid.

maybe and attache/ic combo deal? like others have mentioned, people are fickle and you constantly need to flash and advertise. nobody really talks about Dinan even, and their products are respectable. they haven't gone away either
