Ess stage 1

So today I did it!

Installed Ess stage 1 with the Directflash tool. Took about 15 minutes.

First thing I noticed is that the lag between P and R and then to D is gone. Now the car starts to roll before I grow a beard!

I drove the car for about 50 km in a calm way. It felt like before, very smooth, but I noticed a bit more pull.

Then I stepped on it and now you really feel the difference.

This is how it should have come from the factory! Then I would never have thought of tuning it.

About a week ago a Merc 500S pulled away (not much but he pulled away) from me on the highway.
I wish I will meet him again, cause even with stage 1 I will pull away from him for sure!

It is amazing how the car now can glide smooth as an Cadillac and then turn into a beast with a little help from the right leg.

How will stage 2 feel like? Holy smoke!

I just sit here smiling....................
