Tune is good, forced induction is better!

ofc! but $$$$$ !!!
Gotta rep for the 250 guys on the forums, but going supercharged I'd really be in the deep end.

I ordered the newly released RR Racing IS250 tune. I'll update my thread when I get it up and running and maybe create a review thread for it afterwards. I'm looking forward to the bump in horsepower and 7200 rpm limit, as well as how the car sounds at the new limit. I don't think I can cut a second off the 0-60 time like how Mazda did with the 2019 Miata with a similar increase in power and rev limit but I'm pumped.

Calibration ID? Nothing yet. Apparently my ECU ID wasn't in their database so they have to upload it to MyGenius and have DimSport in Italy help them out or something - and since they are on holidays until next week, I won't be able to update with any impressions until then

​​​​​​Calibration is the software running on your ECU (ID). I think the AWD have 3 since they came out on the 2IS xx50. According to a PDF I had found was I had the middle one, and not the latest version. I'm just curious if your running the same as mine, or you have the latest. According to OVT they had the tune for the latest and not the others. That's why I would have to send in my ECU to get it tuned. After I had purchased my handheld tunner. I don't know if the dealership will update it or not as I haven't tried. There's no reason for me to let them touch my car. Even for the recalls it has I refuse to take my car to them.

Ah ok. Ill take a look at the file i sent rr, maybe i can open it with notepad, or maybe i can ask for the ecu ID after i get it tuned.

Im not the biggest fan of dealerships either but if they could update your ECU it would've saved you having to get rid of the tuner. Did you ask them?
