Upgradeable maybe....but programmable as you mod? IDK.
If it is upgradeable........Show me where the upgrade is...cuz I want it.
I thought we beat this to death in the other "chip" thread.

From turners site:

OK, now I see that. No mention of anything like that in the FAQ though for some reason.Quote:

I've been reflashed once by my indy as well to ensure that I have the latest factory software, and clear adaptations. No help. So I'm really hoping this is the magic bullet. Full review to come Monday night.
Well then in for updates. Any reason you didn't go the Eurocharged route?
a) never heard of it, and b) this was an opportunistic purchase, when the Shark turned up for sale here for a good price. And Jim Conforti has a stellar reputation in the BMW world. We'll see what I think of him shortly. ;)Quote:

For example, the car just feels a LOT more alive immediately after shifting into 2nd at normal cruising velocities.
As for the dreaded 4k dip that I'm hoping to cure - I only got to put my foot into it a couple of times so far, but it's still there, at least slightly. This was in 105-degree heat with the AC blasting, maybe not the best conditions to get a fair read, so I'll drive it some more before I pass judgment on that issue, but if it's not (largely) resolved, I'll be disappointed. Stay tuned.
