Well, count me in as a new Eurocharged Fanboy

Okay maybe not that as I have no idea what that is anyway.

Since hearing all the stuff he is doing with Torque Limiters, I finally caved and had to try it out. Jerrys been up front and openly communicating throughout the process.

Flashed the car and HO LEE SHEET. I have spent enough time and cash over the years to consider myself a tuning connoisseur. Lots of good tunes out there right now including my old OE Tuning that put me at 570wheel at sea level........but the torque limiting removal is what puts this EC tune above all others currently. With my 2.82 gears, I have fought and fought this for years and I finally got to feel what it's like to launch hard on 2.82 gears without fighting the ECU AND the ESP. Just ESP.

I don't get excited about much after all these years and thousands in mods.....this made me smile with a phone call yelling at Jerry YEAH BABY!!!

Gonna dial this tune in on the dyno and then depending on how she feels, might take ONE MORE 700 mile journey down to Sacto to see what she does one last time before retiring her from the drag game.

Swore I wouldn't drag her again but the tune was that good. Would love to have this thing finally hook hard and see what she does up top in the 1/4. We'll see.

Thanks again to Jerry and the whole team at EC for changing the game and raising the bar!

did this improve your traction at launch or just give you more torque through the gears?

Sounds like an actual ecu tune with tranny stuff not an actual transmission (tcu) tune which is something separate.

How long has this torque limiting tuning stuff been going on, is this something new in the last few months or would people have this that have had a tune since the beginning of the year like 6+ months ago? Curious if this is like brand new and only a few have it.
