haha finally! You should have done that from the start. How much boost are you seeing mid-high rpms?

Default I know one thing that they fixed is overboost TC..

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/44443/bej_l308x_giac-x_hp_curve_vs_previous_giac-x_a_adj.jpg"></center><p>My car (stage 2+) was seeing some overboost TC and is now fine with new code. HP seems later in curve now(see pics). Very smooth, lost a little peak HP, but not very much on average for 4200-6500 RPM range.
