believe it or not, it's not too good.
In fact, I just got the parts, and they made what I would say is about a 20-25% improvement. We're not resting on our laurels however, we've already got some more minor tweaks.
We could have a car up here early next week as this week is shaping up to be too busy - we have another new product introduction this week + E60 Tail lights to finish on someone's car.
Stay tuned.
Just so you guys know, our upgrade price for any V1 customer is only $99, that's $50 less than any of what our other competitors charge and it will only require you to send your old unit in and get a new one - a brand new one - fresh in its stead.
Also, we'll be doing a pre-liminary group buy for the V2.1 in about 2 weeks once the final results are in.

How much is it to upgrade from a v2? are you shipping parts to us for free or are we sending in our old ones for you to upgrade...
disappointed with all the delays, confusion and lack of results with this product.

I thought you achieved 20-25% improvement a month ago with minor tweaks? so no improvements since?....

Umnitza stated that for those who bought the V2's recently - they no longer need to send them back for a free v2.1 upgrade, but he will send out the "tweaked" V2.1 part directly to those customers.

Can you be more specific on what the actual tweak entails?

I would love to, except every single time I post an update, my friendly (not really) neighborhood competitor is on every post.
I mean, I can't even say hello without seeing him on the thread moments later. If you want to know and will not post, you can call us (I'll deny everything

If this upgrade is free and painless, I'm in on this. Currently enjoying my V2's though
