So G87 cars can use the suspension piece of this safely, even though the hardware is different? The 20% stuffer - is that rattle your teeth out stiffer?
I daily commute in Sport+ and like it, not sure if stiffer would be good though.

From what I understand the stock suspension hardware in the G87 isn’t that far off from the CS and shouldn’t cause any issues with daily drivability with the CS tune. Plus if you don’t like it I’m sure they can remove it and reflash without it

It's not only faster/more crisp but smoother downshifting/upshifting to the point that it is completely worth 3x the cost.
Have you noticed any changes in gas mileage?

Happy New year!

Has anyone done this update on a 6S Manual?
I have Race Chip on mine and I was wondering if it makes any difference at all.

Yes, we did it already for manual cars (even with Race Chip) and outcome was very positive.

Thank you for your feedback. I guess the Racechip will enhance the performance with the LCI flash but smoother power delivery. I heard power delivery is smoother from the lower end on the LCI models.

Read the review on your flash service, I’m interested in pulling the trigger.

Currently only running the RaceChip black series piggy back, would I still benefit from the flash?

I got it done last week. Unfortunately, I don't notice much difference at all. Mine is manual and I have Racechip as well. Not worth the spending!

Can anyone speak to the differences between this transmission tune and the xHP transmission tune?
I’ve heard good things about both just wanted to see if someone has used both and can explain the differences, pros and cons

kubax86 Will you be able to flash our 2025 ZF8 G87 cars with the 2026 G87 CS stock engine tune?

It’s more of a guess, maybe it is possible but given that the M3 and M4 cannot just load the ECU software of the CS or CSL models, I would think it will be the same for the M2.

I’m confused, isn’t that what this thread is about (loading CS/CSL software onto non CS cars)?

I’ve haven’t flashed anything yet so I’m obviously not an expert
