There is a flash counter and a high value memory. It’s very easy to see these cars have been flashed and boost has been turned up even if it’s back on the stock tune.
I won’t say I’m not a little chapped about the whole deal, but I’m slowly getting over it. In the last couple days I’ve went from “but I want my warranty” to “fuck it I’m about to downpipe and tune this thing” lol
I was comparing my evo 8 to the supra and to my surprise the supra weighs about 100 pounds over the evo 8. They are both fairly small cars, but the evo has all of the added weight of the awd system and iron block. Has anyone went into weight reduction mode and found any removable non essential...
No arguments here. If Toyota saw no issue with killing the value of the MY20 within 7 months of its release, I’ve got little faith that it won’t happen year after year. This will definitely be my last Toyota purchase, and I honestly wish I had just gotten a GTR.
Tuning most cars is fairly easy. I’ve tuned evos, Mazdaspeed, and subarus. The problem is that manufactures have been able to read flash counts for years and sometimes reverting back to stock tune does not help.... You’re more than welcome to take your chances, but I only purchased this car for...
It’s easy to say that when you run a tuning and/or performance shop and have no intentions of keeping your warranty or your car stock.
From someone who has had numerous highly modified evos, STis, swapped s chassis, charger hellcat, etc, I’ve learned the hard way that sometimes a highly...
$8000ish puts a loaded premium/launch around the same cost that most dealers (at least around me) were selling the base for. This is the only way it would make sense to purchase a 2020 in my opinion.
If I could redo it, I’d wait for the 2021 regardless of price drops in the 2020. But for...
We’ve already stared on numerous threads across the board that registering with a new email is the fix. It’s unfortunate, but if you want the app to work without waiting for BMW this is your only option.
As far as the paint blemishes go..... I promise there are a LOT more than you (and the...
I can give a sh$& less about any refinements to suspension. The car handles great.
I would, however, like a revised tune with some added power. We’ve seen this done over and over again with aftermarket tunes, Toyota could easily make it happen.
I sold my hellcat charger for this car..... so...
As someone who has a couple of $4000-5000 PC builds, I’m not nearly as chapped about updates to PC parts as I am about the update to this car. It’s not really comparable, because when/if I decide to buy 2080ti cards to replace my 1080ti cards, I’m not losing any warranty with my purchase and...
