If i had to describe it in one word it would be "surgical"
eTune is typically referring to remote tuning services

If you have a cable, you can drive the car and log data to a computer. Then you email the tuner the logs, he makes changes, and then he sends you a new tuning file to upload to the car using the cable. This often happens a number of times as the tuner dials in the tune.

OH! I believe he does that. Don't want to speak on behalf of Specialty Z. There was one small adjustment we had to make so I sent him my codes and he sent me a new file.

I thought that's what it may have been but anyway, thank you for clarifying.

2/3 reviews complete. 1st city driving now spirited mountain driving. the real review will be the track in the coming weeks.

The car def feels a bit more responsive, downshifts a bit better and maintains power a bit more efficiently.

Oil Temps never exceeded 220F. stock "oil cooler"
Elevation 0-6000 feet
Outside temp: 70 +/- 5 degrees

You can't tell much of a difference between the conservative 91 tune and the aggressive 91 tune that you can toggle.

Truthfully not much more to report beside the amazing sound for the FI CBE echoing off the mountains...and the sound in the tunnels....ohhh the tunnels...

More to come..
