Maybe launch control? IDK, there's always something he seems to be working on.

O2 simulator for those running catless DPs, and are recieving CELs, the low end torque which was removed with 2.02, and knowing Shiv, about 5-8 more rwhp. Launch control would be nice but i highly doubt it for 2.03, maybe 2.04 or 2.05, the ever elusive DP map considering the fact the Shiv already recieved a set.

thats just to name a few.

So this is kind of a related question. How do you go about chosing the number for the next upgrade? For example there was v1.2, 1.3, 1.4. Then there was a 1.5 that didn't work then back to 1.4x to the 1.47. Now with V2 its 2.01, 2.02 etc. Why not 2.1, 2.2 etc.? Is there a formula that developers use or is it completely random? I always wondered this

I'd like to see a tune for downpipes with high flow cats and for those of use running intercoolers. Helix has seen nice gains by tuning for their intercooler, hopefully shiv can do the same.

I don't think they specifically tuned for it. Not much to do that the ECU doesn't.

They r claiming they picked up 22hp by tuning for the intercooler....see here:

No they picked up 22hp by installing the IC not "tuning for it" There's nothing to tune, unless maybe they were limiting boost without it and added some, but I see no mention of that nor is it likely.

I think you should read it again, they picked up 22whp and 6wtq by tuning for the FMIC... You can advance the timing further with an upgraded FMIC from what i understand thats where you can pull more power from. I hope Shiv gets one and tunes for it...

+1, I got a PM from them about this as well.....they had to tune for the denser air mixture so I'm assuming that let them add in a little more boost and timing. They said the HP was tapering off more after 5500rpms once the intercooler was installed before they tuned for it, afterwards it stayed stronger to redline thus the extra 22hp. Honestly if Shiv doesn't address the intercooler I may give the Attache a testrun and see how I like it, I already have Helix's intercooler so it couldn't hurt. Also interested in their intake.

Don't worry guys. We'll tune for an intercooler as soon as we finish the DP setting. To be honest, there's really not much tuning to do with an IC. It's one of the mods that is passively effective. Lower charge temps mean you can run a bit more boost at higher rpm. Lower pressure loss means turbos run more efficiently at the same manifold pressure. AFR is self corrective via closed loop fuel control. All of which results in a power gain. How much power gain depends on just how much better the upgraded IC performs.

Doesn't change the fact though that that post said nothing about tuning for the IC, just had a dyno saying the FMIC was installed, nothing about tuning.

No the ecu will advance all the timing it can.

So sometime in August.

Why are you being an ass, man?

Can you be a little more constructive, instead of wasting yours and our time with nonsense?
