That's weird, nobody made any comment. Anybody excited? curious? I wonder what results they'll get from the ecu reprogramming. In any case, it's a good indication that we can expect a lot of racing beat products for the 8.

Yeah I am with you on all the product updates Mikeb. I think I am going to concentrate on cosmetic/suspension changes until early to mid next year whenl the products have been out on the market for a while and get the concensus at that time about which products to buy.

I disagree... there's not enough out yet, and I'm just waiting until all holiday shopping is done to buy more goodies

I even have a set of the RB sway bar end links just sitting in my garage.

Yes, that is important. Also of importance... other cars can be "chipped" and either a stock module can be plugged back in, a remote control RF device can be used, or if they are pretty advance, a certain set of input from cruise control or other devices to load the "stock" programming back in.

It would be nice to see some of that technology be used on the 8's ecu
