Couldn't be happier with the tune, if you can get traction, it really throws you back and it just keeps pulling hard through every gear. The stock 265 Dunlop rears were no use up through 3rd gear, so the 285 MPSS definitely made a huge difference traction wise.
The coordination with Renntech was very good as well, they kept communication with me through the process of me dropping off my car at a shop, the shop taking out the ECU and shipping it to them, tuning it, then shipping it back for install.

I've read this before so I know I'm not the only one experiencing it, but in comfort mode, it still feels choppy as if it doesn't know what gear it wants to be in. Might be because comfort starts it in 2nd gear. It happens less now though since I've adapted to how the car drives and accelerates and vice versa.

Other than that, I haven't had any issues with the tune and have 12k miles total on the car with about 7k miles with the Tune on it.
