    the redsport has a compression speed sensor which limits boost, i have not seen HPT files yet as i use Ecutek for those

    and i can tell you at roughly 1.2 bar and good fuel with very basic bolt ons the gains are crazy 140ftlbs 110rwhp

    Here is the last stock tune file that I have pulled. I havent tinkered with it YET due to warranty concerns. Theres a couple of people on the Q50 forum that are trying this out. I need to update my beta and pull another copy to see if HPT has added any features.

    1.2 bar? Youre referring to above atmosphric? Boost? 17.5 psi? Oh hell yeah. I have a JB4 on it now and its impressive. Mind you, no timing added and the AFRs seem a bit rich. I dont have and other mods on her yet. Need some supporting mods before I void the warranty. LOL! But 110 rhwp and 140 rwtq are NICE gains, I assume this is on an E mix? E30 maybe?

    Dang.... Makes me want to try it, How long have you ran it with RS file?... Dragy is getting consistent 13.40s@105 on the streets 100% stock w/ 3660-DA Texas summer. Just installed catch can and Heat-Exchanger. Got AMS Intakes, Magan LDP and Invidia Cat-back on the way. Debating If I wanna play around with HP-Tuners and just go ECUTEK....

    Just know if you go ECUTEK...

    1. They will NEVER sell you their software to make your own tune file or modifications to your tune UNLESS you prove that youre "WORTHY". LOL!
    2. MPVI2 is $299 ($548 with Pro Features... Not needed with the Q50). The credits are $300 bucks. So... $599 to tune your Q50. Im hearing over $1000 bucks to tune with ECUTEK. I was quoted $1600 from a reputable shop! Oh HECK NAW! Especially since I already have an MPVI2...

    The choice is yours...

    But my results with HPT have been great on my G8 and other cars that I've tuned. I've had HPTuners for over 6 years.
