rmcferon Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 As of right now, we would still like to complete additional Beta testing with local vehicles before we Beta test with LGT owners from out of state. Thanks, Christian. I have a Stock 08 LGT Sedan out of state, how about beta testing with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryokosman Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 I wasn't planning on modding mine but this hesitation/studder issue is the pits... I remember how much better my old STi was even with the OTS Stage 2 maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamhock Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Ryokosman? Wow, I didn't figure you going for a Spec B after you got out of your STi. Glad to see you found the LGT boards, and in a Spec B. BTW, I took your advice and stayed away from the Z06. Mika Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B. Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 not on the 07. 05-06 tcu will let you bounce off the rev limiter. 07 tcu wont let you. ecutek spent hours on my car trying. since your the expert on the CANbus, maybe you should produce your own reflash well i fail to see that i am required to since everyone on this forum is a electronics expert, can fix ANY legacy car issue, knows EVERY damn secret to the 07/08, there are several "tuners" offering electronic software flashes...etc... you sound like a quitter to me and nothing will be done with somethign liek that. aklgt has what an 05 or 06? i know she doesn't have an 07 but she said her car automatically shifts at 7k. does the 07 use a different box than the previous or are they just somehow masters of automotive engenieering?

rudy Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 does the 07 use a different box than the previous If by box you mean ECU, yes, I believe so. The SI-Drive capable ECU is supposed to be more advanced than previous years, though clearly Subaru didn't do the greatest job of actually programming it.

camber Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 Trey from Cobb mentioned a while back that they were trying to reverse engineer the TCM on the 5EAT for Nissans. I'm not sure if Subaru and Nissan share the exact same TCM on the Jatco 5EAT's but it wouldn't surprise me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if Subaru and Nissan share the exact same TCM on the Jatco 5EAT's but it wouldn't surprise me. i believe all we are talking about is extending the redline. iirc there are several 5eat owners with extended redlines. not exactly voodoo science. it also seems, for the most part, shift points are based upon throttle inputs anyways. i see no need to realy jack with the software except to change shift harshness or quickness. but once again, i believe all we are talking is extending the redline.

Long Island Legacy Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 2007 2nd gear bogging in low rmp ( traffic ) minor -- everything eles was covered- NOW when can we pre - order Lol What about the Shift light only coming in in I mode. I wish it would work in all modes as a true shift light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Island Legacy Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Is there even a point to rev higher the 6500 on the cars anyway. I doubt were making power up that high. This is the reason i ditched my RSX and got a LGT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B. Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Is there even a point to rev higher the 6500 on the cars anyway. I doubt were making power up that high. This is the reason i ditched my RSX and got a LGT. i would like to see the math on it but... depending on what you are doing and trying to accomplish you could make the turbo do what you want. there are a couple of people who are tuned for the upper revs while the majority here are not. to some there is a point to most, no. also, the time of the shift may come into play maybe momentum as well...lots of physics really. why lose time in the 1/8 or 1/4 due to a shift when you can stretch it out a few more 100 rpm's? i'm not sure what is easier personally. our cars shift around 5k rpms anyways and that is about where the turbo death happens modded or not for most (excluding those tuned for top end). no point when all that modded power is below 5k rpms and you are dragging. auto cross, yeah. drag, no.

Richard B. Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Lol What about the Shift light only coming in in I mode. I wish it would work in all modes as a true shift light. on my 5 eat it shift at 5500 rpms no matter what. manual or auto. second tops at 50mph exactly. in s or s# second tops at 60. i have done 110 in i mode though. not sure if that means anything but i tesnd to use i 85% of the time.

I use I mostly on the highway when im crusin around town i need S or S# I just has no boost.lol and if u can win a race in I mode then thats just sweet too. reminds me of the m5's 400hp/507/hp modes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishingFiend Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 I've got one of the first 07's, 1 year anniversary this weekend. The hesitation annoys me daily. It's far worse in S# mode. But very much like the other 07 owners have griped about already. In Christian's link, someone said an ECU flash has come out for the hesitation this week. I'm going to make an appointment tomorrow. We'll see if this helps... I've been waiting a year for the AP, please let us know when we are able to pre-order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one69chev Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 as previously stated here, when using manual mode in S#, the tranny will upshift well short of the redline. other than that, i have no colpmalints. i did find, how ever that if i use 3/4 throttle, it doesn't shift early, and will not shift until i shift it.

rudy Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Can't believe I'm bumping this, but had some stoplight fun with an S4 (automatic I'm guessing given that we were even) yesterday and I'm really starting to feel the pinch for more power.
