Just needs to be compatible with the lithium ion battery. Here's an example from BMW:

What was your initial offering discount? 20 or 30%?
Any chance you'd offer that for boxing day?

Since our cars have lithium ion batteries, we need a lithium ion specific charger. I've considered purchasing the TecMate Tm-291 for recharging and flashing, LINK.

TecMate provided the following advice when I asked them about flashing:
"1. Charge the battery overnight (as you suggested).
2. Disconnect the charger prior to starting the flash sequence and then reconnect when you start the sequence.

The charger will revert to charge mode and provide back up power to the battery. "

Our initial offer at launch was 20%. We probably won't offer that again.

I saw a reference to the HP/TQ numbers measured with 93 octane fuel. Does 91 (California) make any difference?

Second question - do you still offer pricing option without the warranty?

Thanks!

Took a closer look at your site and found the answer to my second question :-) Warranty is a $750 option.

Our products have been submitted for CARB approval so they do not offer features to defeat emissions control, even for off-road use.

Yes, 91 octane compatible of course and you can expect a roughly 15-20hp difference between 91 and 93.

It is something we could offer down the road. The hardware (tablet) certainly has the capability. At this moment however, we only have the 1 map to offer.

Theoretically, yes. Were you running a different tune on it before?

Just want to give everyone a heads up, we will be closed 12/31 and 1/1 for New Year's. Any inquiries will be responded to after the holiday.
The website will still have the 15% promotion going during that time, so don't miss out!

Happy New Year's everyone

When is stage 2 ready for M2C?

Will factory matching warranty be available for it?

What parts will be included with it?

Price range?

When u say big turbo upgrade/how big and I'm assuming a fuel setup will be required - injectors, pump, injection, etc...?
