believe it or not, my stage one flashed, all stock exhaust, F3L gives my 1700 Vmax a good run for it's money. My friend drove my Spyder hard and fast, and when I followed I found it took a huge amount of Vmax throttle to keep pace. When I was in the lead I had to get into warp factor 9 on my Vmax to bury my pesky F3L.

Hi Dennis,
I don't believe it. The ECU flash is great!!!! Worth every $$. BUT-------- my poor, old slow, modified gen 1 V-Max will eat my " chipped" RT for lunch. On a twisty mountain road without my wife on board---- the would certainly hold its own though.

Well, I too have a 1700 Vmax and a 2016 F3T that I am going to get the flash done to. I don't see anyway that this brick of a spyder could ever keep up with the Vmax, or even come close in acceleration. I would love to believe you, and hope that you are correct. If you are, then I will be the first to post it here. But I am truly looking forward to doing this mod. I will not be competing with anything like my mighty Vmax, but it will be nice to show some of my M109 buddies how things should be done. They have a hard time keeping up with me now in stock trim.

has anyone had problems with faults codes after flash?
With MaptunerX, yes. Immediately after programming an error message can occur. This can be deleted with the Maptuner. In rare cases, the key must be removed removed for a minute. After that, there are no more error messages.

Actually, it's the corners where my Spyder made ground with it's Elka suspension. My Vmax is a pig to wrestle in the corners and I don't want to find the limit for holding a corner. What I was saying is I had to push the throttle surprisingly hard on my Vamx to close a gap on the Spyder when it had the jump on me. Kind of like the Hair and tortoise thing. Pesky little Spyder made me work really hard on my Vmax to show who was really boss.
has anyone had problems with faults codes after flash? I have 2014 rtl thinking about having it flashed

Theres two stages to choose from. I had the stage II done on mine..and it runs like its supposed to be from the factory. its fast!!!! the 1330 has a lot of untapped horsepower. in which you will find out shortly if you decide to get it.
I didnt get any fault codes.

Ok, I will give you a little on that. I actually think the generation 2 Vmax does really well in the corners. I feel more confident doing it on the spyder, but the Vmax is definitely faster for me (even in the curves). I was just in the NC mountains and took the Vmax on the famous Dragon for the first time. Exciting to say the least.
