John visconi tuned my car yesterday in about 30 minutes. Not long at all. Tuned for exactly what I had done, I gained launch control, 3 maps for 89/91/93 octane, first year of updates is free and he will look at logs and retune for minor bolt on upgrades through email. The car feels a lot more linear no jumps or drops in the rev band.

Yes it's not live change on the fly tuning. I had that with my power FC commander and this blows that out of the water. watched him tune 8-9 second GTRs yesterday with this and he's currently working on flex fuel for our cars... E85 anytime no switches or hooking up to a laptop. Just pump from almost empty and go. Changing back to 93 octane is the same. I'll be dealing with John from now on.

You are local to him, or no? This is a good sign that things are still moving forward, at least

Nope I'm in Dallas. He was here for TX2K. He told me last night to post on here and y'all can order stage one with bolts ons through visconti tuning. Car runs perfect and yes launch control is awesome. You can set up everything through the laptop then it's adjusted at the steering wheel afterward in increments with the coast/acceleration lever.
everything is working flawlessly so far driving home and playing from Houston and around town this morning. But this setup is already available and been done on quite a few cars. Yes he may be hard to reach but most of the best are.

However, I'm not sure the extra features are fully released. There is a master tuner in Austin who does a lot of GT-Rs, but they still don't have access to these latest 370Z features. John is the only tuner I've seen that has access to them.

Not sure who's all got those features but it'll be tuned into your setup when you receive it. New ECU ID's take 1-2 days to get setup out of his mouth. Mines a 2013 nismo. just letting you guys know it does work. I'll be posting video to YouTube later on launch control and changing it.

Saying I don't know who's all tuning in launch control or other extras. But if you order your tune and cable You can have that already added as you're initial tune file then run some logs and have him fine tune it through email.

This is good news. I don't know if your the first one with these features that's not a beta,but your the first to post this news on the forum!(unless I missed something) Ya,this is definately music to my ears. Thanks for sharing. I hope these features will be available through etunes.
Edit: just read that you can.

Yes from what I watched all he did was click a box on the tuning menu And it was done. Also changed the rev limit. Used no lift shift today without a single issue and it doesn't just stop it at red line. If it's floored as soon as you hit the clutch at any RPM it holds there 6k/7k/7500 doesn't matter just don't lift your right foot slightly being used to shifting without. I did this a few times. Right foot stays planted. Pretty much only good for racing or other very hard acceleration. But I love it. That with launch means in a straight line you don't lift until you're ready to be done.
