Everyone else has been really pleased with the tune and most of us were running a Starter 21 with aggressive quick adjustments.

The TSP tune has a different feel than the Ktuner with quick adjustments. Down low, it feels slightly less "snappy" but extremely smooth. After 4,000 rpm the tune really shines. Above 5,000 rpm the oomph continues whereas the Ktuner tune started to give out.

Basically, it feels closer to a custom tune but at a canned tune price. :)

Thanks guys!

I already purchased it. Does it take too long for the tune to get sent?

I'll share my experiences soon ;)

Well, I gotta say. I'm surprised.

It's so much better than the Stage 2 or Starter 21 even with aggressive settings. It feels more refined and soft down low but once you get past 3000 it's madness. It seems to go well with the rest of the mods I have.

4th and 5th gear ard endless with more power on the upper rpm range. Pair that with the AVSA and it's a small rocket.

And... if you go soft while cruising, you get even better mpg than before.

I definitely like it. I reckon the car has to be around 250bhp now, perhaps a bit more...

I've got:
K&N filter
PRL Intercooler
Custom 2,5'' exhaust.

Kind Regards

It was dyno'd at 219 wheel horsepower so your 250 bhp guess is about right.

On my CVT, it feels basically the same as your manual but Derek kept it fairly soft up to a higher rpm (more like 3500 rpm) to protect the CVT. At 4,000, it blasts off and continues to pull hard even past 6.000 rpm. Very impressive.

The KTuner base tunes are good... very good. The TSP takes the refinement to a different level.

Mine is a manual, and man... best 70 dollars spent on this car, lol

What mods do you have?

I wanted to compliment you, I finally tried this tune, I didn't do many miles, but it really surprised me

It goes really fast
I agree with the previous comments

Congratulations, you have been good

I have a friend with a mishimoto filter, should he take the race or street version?

The only intake that should be used with the "Race" version is the PRL Cobra with "Race" MAF housing.

I would advise filling up with the highest octane fuel in your area prior to flashing. I just received my TSP stage 1 file a few days ago and I wasn't too happy right off the bat. But man, once the the 93 octane made it's way to the rails and the ECU started learning, I was in for a wild ride. This thing flat out screams. All of the previous comments about softness and smoothness under 3000 rpm are completely correct. The car feels superbly balanced with a very smooth power curve. My only mod is the Takeda Momentum Airbox and Pro Dry S filter and I'm surprised how well it works with the tune. Bottom line, very impressed with this tune from D-Rob and Two Step Performance!
