Would this tuner also be able to block CELs permanently for inspection?

So it sounds like they have developed options for the 2IS transmission.
Anyone know when those will be available?

On their website it has the 3IS stage 2 with transmission tune, but still only Stage 1 for the 2IS.

If it's anything like the DimSport handheld, the thing only reads, uploads and downloads ECU tunes. Per the instructions from DimSport you have to make sure to re-upload the stock tune before factory service or else the performance tune may be permanently overwritten and you need to pay for a new tune file. But somehow for the OrangeVirus tune, he said there is no need to change back to the stock file prior to factory service. Does anyone know this for sure?

I saw the same thing and asked about whether the same option is available for the 2IS but he said no. He said that he can alter the shift control maps but not the shift pressure maps. I'm not technically inclined so I can't exactly say I know what that means. Can anyone explain this?

It means they can change the RPM that the car limits revs but they can not change how fast it shifts or when it shifts in manual mode.


I finally have an update on my Handheld tuner, It has finally after 36 days been added to the database so I can get it to connect to my ECU. I have finally read and uploaded my file to OV. I will update once I have my tunes.
it curently has a OV tune for 93 Octane and rev limited to 7200. I would love to have a stock tune and a more aggressive "race" tune for race gas as I have it available in my area.

I would definitely give them another email, they are busy enough that if you don't bug em a couple times a week, it will be forgotten.

I bugged them a couple times a week for the whole month till they got it working. they thought they had it working about 3 times and it wasn't.
i got another email 2 night ago saying they thought they had it all fixed and to try it in the morning. It now reads my ecu.
Now I have to grab my tune data and email it to them, then they make the 5 tunes and email me back.

Sounds good. That you got yours working. I've contacted them many times also. I haven't received any emails that at least they are trying.

One thing i would suggest is taking a picture of you ECU so they have all the info and emailing it to them with a note saying how long its been since you bought the product, this is what got mine working finally.

Hi B00M3R,
I'm in the process of getting it too. They sent me this email: "I would need to see the label on your ECU to know if it is already in your database or if sending it would be necessary" Do I have to completely remove it to have access to the label? It's the 2 10mm nuts right? Do I have to unplug all the connectors?
Thanks

You should be able to see it with out removing the 2 nuts. I took a picture this way. If you have an iPhone just focus it on the ECU number.

I did that last Friday again. This time through the website contact box. Still no responses. Man this sucks lol I want my car to go from slow to super slow. Mostly if I can get some more torque out of the tune. It would be great.

Thanks tlts82. I'll do the way that you did, don't want to mess with all of those connectors and wires.
