Yes. Well, i cant remember if it is 1200 or 1500, but it has a break in program. The g35s and 350s were the first i remember to do this. I remember people would put on an exhaust and see 10hp, then 50 miles later, its right back to the stock hp. Suddenly at something like 1k miles, the power came back. On these modern engines, the break in is important, and the manufacturer makes sure the car does what they want it to. This new all aluminum engine is apparently more sensitive to this then the previous. This does not really mean its weak, just sensitive to break in.

Of course a simple reflash would take this away, but good luck there

Good news all around. The stock exhaust is way to quiet!

not to be a downer, but... good luck tuning without access to the 5 + main ecu's, and the countless number of sub (slave) ecus....... ....
Doesnt ECUtek already have the ability to flash??
