If it does happen I'm not expecting much to justify the cost. Unless GTM sells the rights to Uprev to get a upgrade. But I doubt it.

It should make tuning more effective and efficient if they pull it off. The most profit would be made by offering it only to their customers, but I doubt Sam would take that path.

Are there any updates on the VVEL tuning? Haven't been on the boards much in the past few months...

That's right, I remember you mentioned that in another thread. Really looking forward to hearing what Sam tells you.

They, but currently the Uprev software cannot alter VVEL tuning.
Sam is using a stand alone system to adjust VVEL right now to see what advantages or disadvantages it has and work backwards from that.

Basically, lift, duration, and overlap can all be controlled on our car via tuning.

I have yet to hear from Sam at GTM just to let everyone know. If I don't hear anything from him in another week i'm going to email him again.
