Map switching with the XFlash will involve turning a knob on an outboard piece of electronics (XFlash Tuner). This will plug into your factory ECU harness.

Man, it is going to be one sweet piece.

For the eventual stage 2 users, the XEDE/Xflash is the only way to go, correct?

Correct. The reflash, by itself, can't read as much load/boost as the system is capable of producing. Needs the XEDE to expand its Y-axis

Not quite. The load axis on the factory fuel and timing charts only goes up to ~1.7bar of boost. This applies to any reflash. I have run our Stage 2 car with the reflash only but it was in a pump gas application which limited boost to less than 1.6 bar. If you ran much more boost, one would have to make sure that the mapping at 1.7bar is still adequate/suitable for the fuel/spark requirments at the higher boost pressure since that is what it is going to get.

So this Xflash Tuner add-on is similar to the new COBB AccessPort? Or is this only available to Xede users?
