Flashed my sky today (opel gt)

dixie · 08-19-2008, 06:16 PM

Hello,today I drove to Germany to get my opel GT flashed,the owner from the company drove a 2007 opel GT and this flash didn't work on my 2008 GT so he wrote me a new program in 3 hours.Don't know why it's so difficult for USA tuners to make a flash for a 2008 ?
These are the results:
308hp at the cranck and 426NM torque
OEM was 262 hp and 360 NM torque
Car drives great and the tuner told me if I needed more power he also could make it but the power I have now should be very reliable..

Only three hours? I guess he had a good fix on what parameters were different between the years. I'm not in the market for any tunes while still under warranty, but I hope the aftermarket is a bit more responsive when my time comes.

He made some changes from his 2007 flash and made it work for a 2008.
So he didn't write a complete new flash.

any news if there are REAL programmable engine management unit (from your part of the world) that will be out soon for our 2008 saturn sky redlines?

I don't know if it's availible but when it is I'll let you know.
The guy who tuned my car has also a redline and he will add a compressor for torque at low rpm's and a bigger turbo for torque at higher rpm's so I think he will need an aftermarket ecu to get this work properly..
