Does this TCU tune keep shifts from hitting the rev limiter? I cannot get a clean launch. And are other tuner reselling this? I see other tuners offering a TCU tune.

Which feature do you mean? Do you mean just regular stage 3 xHP flash, or the drag mode? Thanks!

Probably a stupid question but when buying is it the "8 speed" or "8 speed g series/Supra) for a 19 M5 Comp?

If you go through the choices on the website you can’t go wrong and it also asks about a certain 4 digits in your VIN.

I've looked all over the site and I can only search by vehicle type and the M they show is for the suv. Nowhere to enter my vin. Enjoii answered my question

LCI tune has been released. 2020+ M5 and M8 are covered now. Only question is that does it require bench unlock and is it detectable?

Flashed mine last night. I have a 2020 so it's not an LCI but has the newer trans. Installed without any issues and impression so far is it's awesome. I went straight to stage 3. Haven't tried drag mode or launching or any custom settings yet.

Shifts in D3 and S3 are much faster and harder. I'm pretty blown away with how fast this thing can shift. Stock was good but left me wishing for more. I need more seat time but D3 seems even better and more intuitive going through corners and up shifts are ridiculous.

Shifts in D2 are crisper and is a nice mode for cruising without full pops and bangs.
Love it so far and can't wait to try drag mode and draggy/take to the track.
