Much better than I was expecting. I'm in!

We're reaching our to the folks at Harrison Motorsports in Alpharetta again next week to finalize some additional details.

If all goes well we will make the official announcement and lock in a date by the end of the month. The actual Summer Flashing Days event will have to be after the 4th of July holiday, but we will try to do it as soon after as possible.

Thanks for dropping in for an update. We're all looking forward to confirmed dates for the event.

I am interested since I am from Memphis.


I am looking at delivery around August.

May I ask what the cost just to have the "burble exhaust" sounds?

Please reach out to GMWNashville directly as this thread is to gather interest for a flash tuning day in the Atlanta, GA area.

So any info on the rate Harrison will be charging to do the physical removal/reinstall?

To understand the flashing for our cars will only take place on these "Summer Flashing Days" as decided later and it wont be available to be done later with the shop when i actually decide to get it flash, not sure when.

That has not yet been decided.

Most dealers are charging between $150-$200 for labor, but it's ultimately their decision as they will be doing the work.

I'm certain they will announce the labor amount well in advance of the event so people can plan/budget accordingly.

The point of these Summer Flashing Days is to cater to the local customers in each region, and to also evaluate the shops ability/resources to become Certified Installers even after we leave.

If they qualify, these flashing days will also serve as formal training while we are present with their installers/techs ... but we can't guarantee they will be properly equipped and certified until after that point.

Is it fine to go and meet you guys and local installers on these Summer flashing days and possible check out other customers cars with this flash, most likely i will get it done next yr and would want to have 1st hand experience on this flash before deciding.

You're more than welcome to come out for a meet and greet!
It will obviously be up to the owner of a freshly tuned car to take you for a ride or let you test drive it...but with the enthusiasm that follows this upgrade I'm sure someone will be all smiles and gladly want to show it off.

Am sure Clark will be the 1st one to get flashed

I think it's safe to assume that we can aim for making appointments the week of July 11th - 15th. If there's any chance of pushing to make it sooner than that we will absolutely do so.

I will post contact information by the end of the week so you guys can start contacting the dealer directly to leave a deposit and start making appointments.

Stay Tuned, to get Tuned!

[FwitM3]

id be interested as well

[VF-Engineering]

We're about a week or so away from starting product training with Harrison Motorsports for on-site flashing!

Once the tools are in their hands, they'll start reaching out to take appointments.
