    Xcal 3 Issues

    Have you tried returning it to stock after letting it rest for a while? (it's a different icon on the Xcal - not under the one you goto to load a custom tune - I think it's on the main/first screen)
  2. So it's pretty much FG MKIII FG X they're calling it (not FH) Seems a lot more appropriate - more of a facelift than a new model.

    Xcal 3 Issues

    Turn the car off for a half hour, return the vehicle to stock tune then load the tune you want. Have had it happen to me twice now - no matter what you try the car needs a good half hour of so before it will let you return it to stock. Seems to happen after a couple of recent flashes when loading in the TCM (the transmission tune - the bit it asked if you wanted to download) I think (will need confirmation) that when this happens and it locks up the car will still be tuned with the previous flash and safe to drive - I'd wait for confirmation first through.
  4. Yeah - got mine yesterday Still a bit too moist for my taste. Too much worshteshire flavour for me. The one that has the texture of 50yo leather strips still gets my vote
  5. Can't notice anything different. ICC screen looks the same 12v socket at a different angle to mine maybe. Different upholstery maybe?
  6. Put the receiver on a USB extension cable. That way there's a long cord hanging out of the lappy that you can't help but notice and unplug when packing it away.
  7. I think that's his problem - forgetting to unplug it when he heads home KVM's the best solution - unless you remote into your laptop from the desktop rather than use it direct
  8. None of your monitors have a usb hub?
  9. I think there's a video or something similar on the Atomic website? (can't check at the moment) Seem to remember something when I was looking for the tool hire or contact details you were asking about. edit: found this http://www.atomicperformanceproducts.com/downloads/install_instructions_100704_valvespring_tool.pdf Won't load fully for me ATM so not sure if it what I was recalling or helps
  10. Interesting Wasn't the first test a manual GTS vs an auto GT-F? They say it's the same cars again, so even more impressive. Would be expecting the auto GTS to lose some more KW's and the manual GT to gain some - making the gap even wider if they went "like for like" Wonder how the temprementality of the overboost would play out on the 1/4 - would it be in the desired range for it to kick in over a single run? (or is that just the difference from a dyno run compared to a road run?)
  11. Lol - hope no members are epileptic or prone to migraines
  12. Taleb were great for me (once I phoned - didn't get an email response) Great price and tyres were here the next day
  13. Oops - didn't mean to like the comment :S Get yourself checked out - might be something lacking
  14. I'm probably wrong (usually are) but from the sheet above I'd be suggesting the boost isn't coming on til much later - closer to 4k?
  15. Someone will post the right ideas, but I couldn't resist edited: took out Shooter McGavin gif - wasn't the welcome to give a new member
  16. http://www.news.com.au/technology/design/man-spends-millions-to-make-the-worlds-ugliest-mercedes/story-fnjwucvh-1227017762497 “Having invested about 5 million Swiss francs and more than 30,000 man hours, the car is worth more than 10 million Swiss francs, which is his minimum selling price.” Hate to tell him, but he's just wasted a hell of a lot of money ruining a great vehicle
  17. Hehe - was an episode of MCM where they showed you how to put them on
  18. Mines plugged into the network through cat5 - thus the reference
  19. Lol - I was hinting that the internet was fine and you just dc'd the phone server so you could have a quiet arvo
  20. Pull the cat5 cable out of the phone system = no phonecalls = relaxing arvo
