Like you, I went with MHD, the car already has enough trouble hooking up with stock power.
MHD gives me a little more power, is pretty smooth and allows me to adjust the exhaust burbles, which was a must for me.
Iāve been lurking on one of the Corvette forums and that place is a dumpster fire. To answer your question very few folks are even spec-ing base cars. Many have ordered them and are way over 60K. Most have paid some sort of premium to be āfirst in lineā as well. Some folks have even taken...
I decided to revisit this project as well. I'm bummed that the lights don't work with the courtesy lights but these aren't super bright so they won't be distracting during the day and should look good at night.

There still seems to be a lot of smoke and mirrors around what 2021 cars can be tuned. Thankfully Iāve got no dog in this race as I have a 2020. I was hoping to see what OpenFlash was going to bring to the table but theyāve been MIA for a little whole now.

Iāll probably get it tuned to shut it up in sport mode.
Your experience with the R8 is exactly why your last sentence rings true. Had several guys on the Audizine forum when I had my B8.5 S4 get flagged for mods, they thought they were fine but they were not despite being flashed back to stock. They had to eat the cost of repairs and lost their power...
If you bring a brand new car to the dealer for expensive engine/powertrain warranty work, particularly an enthusiast car like this, you better believe they do have the knowledge and will use it to check to see if the car has been modified. Assuming theyāre too dumb is a mistake. This has been...
Seems like things are still in flux. While Iām sure the tuners will figure it all out, I canāt see new security measures being cracked this quick unless someone has inside information.
This sucks and I feel bad for you. Iāve ordered two cars in my life, the second one was a bunch of waiting, very few updates and it ended up being a lemon. I wonāt ever (probably lying) do it again.
I bought my Supra on a bit of an impulse and the instant gratification was nice.
Good luck...
