This is legitimate. Not from GAD Motors either. I know the guy who cracked it. Actually, I've known for a while but I couldn't say anything heh.
I'll give you guys some meaty details on the tune tomorrow. It's going to he awesome.

Good news on the ECU cracking. This is now 4 companies I know of that have cracked it, so tuning options are getting better and better.
Can't say I am impressed with the power curve though. Looks like a cheap tuning box delivery from that plot. No power change over stock till 4k, then all hell breaks lose!!!! Very lumpy too

It's also a very early tune with little revisions made so give it time and I'm sure you'll see better gains across the entire rev range.

Jailbreak Tuning is the actual company that cracked it stateside. I doubt they'll give it to anyone anytime soon, much like GAD & Poseidon haven't.

True, but keep in mind that the people who have the keys to crack these tunes will make a hell of a lot more than one payout, especially now that this type of ECU is used in multiple modern cars that'd have a tuning market, especially the M4.
It'd have to be a *lot* of money.
