Some people might not like the way Shiv conducts himself on message boards but the one thing that can't be denied it that Vishnu makes top notch products and have been doing so for years.

I don't think Terry got banned for doing what I'm doing. That same conclusion has been made by other customers on e90post and I know that to be incorrect. The details behind his banning here are unknown to me. Probably best left between the admin and Terry.

Healthy competition is a good thing people.

Do your research and chose your tune. You can point out the fanboys pretty easily so take whatever they say with a grain of salt. Both tunes are awesome, you really can't lose which ever way you go. The bashing is really getting old, just enjoy your car. If your worried about warranty you shouldn't be tuning at all cause I have read numerous posts on limps on both sides, tune related or not.

Hmmm I wonder does that mean no more sushi?

^^^No he cannot elaborate because that would equate to possibly speaking negatively about a competitors product. Members can elaborate but not vendors.......

I should be getting mine this upcoming week. I'll be testing it next weekend. If anyone has theirs already we should start a new thread for this tune.

Installed the new procede last night and I am now one happy customer. The install is pretty simple. I followed the instruction from the on line video with my lap top in the garage. I did run into one problem, but it was self induced from not reading the instructions properly. After sending Shiv an e-mail, he called me back and kindly talked me through my mistake.

Once I got the car all buttoned up, the girlfriend and I went out for a test ride. Gently pressing the accelerator down the street, she and I both noticed that the car sounds a lot different. The best way to describe it would be to say it sounds more mechanical. I could hear the turbo whirring a bit more and there was noticeable noise form the stock in-take.

Once the car warmed up I stepped on it to see what it could do. It’s crazy fast! When you floor it, the power comes on smooth and hard. So hard that the wheels spin! When it’s not floored, you can still tell the car has way more power than it used to.

After about 10 minutes of driving, the difference in engine noise under acceleration compared to stock was still there, but I would guess 80% subdued compared to when I accelerated for the first time the first with the Procede. Might have something to do with the ECU adapting.

Overall I’m very happy with the Procede. I literally feel like I’m the owner of a brand new car.
