The Renntech module is well executed. It takes seconds to install, no cutting of wires or direct modification to car. Software is easy to use for custom height settings, as the preset lowering setting were slightly too low for me. 0.7 inch drop all around looks great without worrying about front end scrape. Reverting to stock height is easy if you need to with flip of switch on module. Excellent product! Agree it would be nice to unmarry if you sell car (like Cobb)

Or would I have to set it back to standard send the car in and reflash the tune again after collecting the car. I assume it’s a flash ..or is it an ecu replacement that I will have to physically remove and install back stock ecu

also regarding the lowering module..after installing via obd does height adjust automatically based on dynamic selector mode e.g comfort sport sport plus race? ( normal / low /lower/lowest) And I assume the module doesn’t have to be permanently plugged in once the files has been transferred right? Just a one time flash and I throw it away since it can’t be married to another vehicle

thanks
Sorry for posting this again but it wasn't answered on the other thread:

When is the new Piggyback module going to be available and what kind of gains can be expected through this route?

From 11:40'ish
