MBC's don't work well with our cars because of the behavior of the TC-SST.
When MBC's are used with these trannys it is prone to boost spikes.

Quoting the exact thing the AMS online store has to say about their boost pill versus a manual/electronic boost controller?
Granted they may be correct, I am not an expert, but $500 for a boost pill+tune (requiring that your ECU be sent to them) seems a little too expensive at this point.
I will probably wait for a possible release of a Cobb AccessPORT for the Ralliart vs something that will require a re-tune(resending ECU) for every new modification made.
But for 50hp, 500 bucks isn't that bad.

If you buy the tactrix cable you can buy the flash from ams and flash it yourself (and back to stock anytime you want) and even change the flash yourself.
What other mod can you do for DOUBLE the price that will get you even HALF the added power? It's a very noticeable difference. Pulls much harder. Also retunes are only$200 i believe. If you want some extra pop you're not gonna beat a tune/pill for the price.
