As for waiting untill late Jan early Feb, that is do-able if I actually know their will be an update. I won't be getting re-tuned until April so even March would work, but its just the fact that we don't really know any promise of a real update.

As for removing the MAF, that would be pretty sweet. Would we run a blow-through or simply remove it all together? I know alot of people like using the MAF because its good to tune with.

Im sure it would be used as a blow through set up seeing that it would be the easiest way to tune the Utec.

Bumping this makes no sense, they don't respond anyway and they've told a few people when its going to be released, now we just have to wait.

Microsoft releases software before it has been made fully stable. I will never forget the 'unveiling' when Bill Gates got the 'blue screen of death' in front of the world, 'oh, just re-boot' my a$$. I have known employees of that company and they said that they get more bugs fixed in the first month of 'base users' than in all their program testing.

Although this is very off topic, Its not just microsoft that experiences that.. Any software release that goes to production usually turns up bugs.. Why? Because users tend to do things that testers don't think to try.. Why? Because testers are generally computer literate and more logical than the average user. Endusers tend to do things you wouldn't expect.

I'm not defending microsoft because its just not acceptable the way they HANDLE the bug reports. However Apple solves bug problems by DENYING they exist, or transparently rolling out bug fixes without telling anyone..

With that said, Give TurboXS a break, I know what its like and what it takes to develop software for several platforms in parallel and its pretty time consuming. Understand that developer time, and end-user time are completely different. As a developer, there is a fairly long release process (which they feel is never long enough to finish the job) End users seem to assume that changes are 10 minutes worth of effort to patch a small portion of the code. Several of the features require a pretty comprehensive rewrite of the code to handle additional mapping, an additional set of tables and configuration, and how it intercepts and reproduces additional signals.. Then you have the alpha testing and beta testing..

I can't defend how long the process is but I can understand it. Have patience, these features are well worth the wait (if they got as many of them in there as we've requested.)
