Length of time to get your tune.

Hmmm... Is it possible that something is going on inside your transmission? Is this the same tune you have been using? How many miles are on your car?

Yeah, same tune--6k on the odo.

Haven't tried it in stock mode.

Anyone with a 2013 SHO go from stage 4 to 4+?  How did you like it?  I updated from stage 4 - Lv4 to Lv6 which is suppose to be an improvement.  Lv6 is definitely smoother, but I feel like it might be a tad slower.  I think the shifting is too slow or soft.  I like firm quick shifting, but not slamming or clunking for daily driving.  I didn't know if 4+ or the newer Vx1 is even suitable for daily driving.  I figured I'd ask here if that's alright.  Thanks.

I don't know if they have a 4+; for me they sent me 93 Octane and that was it--wasn't a 4 4+ 5 3 2/3, etc.

I think all those numbers were for the 2010-2012 year models.

Thanks,
Yeah it was confusing.  Originally it was just called 93 and LMS sent me an update called 93 Lv6.  I asked for an explanation and this was their response:

"The v6 tune is an improved tune over version 4 as far as hp and tq on the dyno.  My tuner has made small tweaks to improve the tune across the board as well.  Better shifts and drivability also.  The stage 4 plus is designed to carry boost out until the shift point.  All other versions mimic the factory boost curve and taper off at higher RPM points.  The Xv1 tune is going to be even more aggressive than the stage 4+.  It is going to be a more race oriented tune for those who want to get the very most performance out of the vehicle."

The latest I heard today (this regards to my '12) is that they could either tweak my 4+ with the dyno results or send the more "race oriented" Xv1 tune.  I told them to give me the best they can do for drive ability and street racing.  They didn't answer my question about when.

Anyone have any idea of how backed up they are? I'm a little disappointed in how long the process is taking to get my tune vs. How long other people have gotten theirs.

Hopefully, now that their split personality tuner is out, they will get caught up.

I got the 93OCTv6 also when I asked for the 4+ a couple weeks ago. That was based off an LMS post saying 4+ was now available on the 2013s. Overall I like the v6 with the boost change and want to get my hands on the Xv1.

Sorry Bob.  I left before you posted.  Just seeing it now. But, I would guess that Dan is handling it all himself.
