Think we should try to keep the thread on track. I really just wanted to inform people that someone has been able to get success with tuning an US spec ISF ecu. Price speculation aside, im just hoping that SARD/Novel will share their success with the platform by selling the tuning software and ability to US consumers.

2. speed limiter? ( we do not have such thing here)

It sucks, but I for one will not hesitate to spend $100/hp gained from a tune. I'd rather spend 3-4k and have a competitive 2008 ISF than fork over 40k on top of my car to get a new M3 or C63 when it comes out. I really hope this tuning solution actually hits the market. I'm happy with every aspect of my ISF except the straight line performance. ...well not every aspect, but close.

Pretty sure we all knew before we purchased our cars that there was no tuning solution. We all could have bought M3 or C63 for same price and had a tuneable monster of a car. Kind of funny we have threads about a slim chance of a possible tune and people get pissed when they find out it doesn't exist.

I'm new to the ISF, but I really hope something like this comes quick. From what I've read its been a long time coming, but a good flash could really wake this motor up, i'm sure there's some lost potential. Granted my car is stock, I'm only about 4 weeks into ownership, but some TQ increases would be huge for this car.

Would love to hear about getting an ECU tune here in Cali! I'd drive to Southern Cali to get it done if I had to!
