Ordered mine today. No one from tsp will answer me or get back to me so moving on to power metrics.
Hmmmm. TSP was really good in the past with customer service. Sorry to hear about them not getting back to you. Have you posted anything in the TSP vendor forum here?

Not yet. I've emailed them and messaged them on Facebook since Thursday with no response. We will see if and when they get back to me but so far it hasn't been a great experience.

Takes about a day to get the tune. So far I like how the car feels. TSP customer service isn't bad maybe there busy they normally answer pretty quickly just not on weekends

Did you make any adjustments to your power metro tune? I did notice they have the anti lag feature on which I know it says only for built motors. As for now I left it as is.

I noticed the same thing it was the first thing I noticed. On both tsp and powerliter tunes it was off. I left as is too, it's suppose to help us make more power. I feel secure in the tune

The anti lag is only for when your launching correct? It just allows you to build boost without being engaged so you can launch with boost built up. Correct me if I'm wrong and thinking of something else.

Anti lag allows you to built boost by retarding ignition to the point combustion is happening outside the cylinder and in the turbo.

I strongly recommend you do not use that feature on a stock motor and turbo. The turbo can (will eventually) crack from the excess heat and pressure.

The stock motor is going to blow using anti lag, that's unavoidable. It might not happen now but with all the stress anti lag will put on the rods, they're going to give out.

But the anti lag is only used while launching or is this something that is going on during driving around? Either way don't plan on using it but just want to know what I'm talking about.

It can be used for launching or while rolling. Although for a fwd platform without slicks itll be pointless as you'll just be spinning tires.

2 step, which is a secondary rev limiter, would be more effective for getting better launches. On hondata +9psi I found around 3k to be really effective getting a nice fast launch without spinning the tires. You really just have to experiment based on your tune and where the limit of your tires is at.

Even with 2 step, I wouldnt recommend just holding it there, just use as something to help you limit your revs before a launch and not worry about overshooting.

Powermetric stage 2 is for use only with flex fuel kit. Stage 1 you dont need the kit but you have to be using hondata as there tune is specifically only for hondata
