Live tuning VTEC window not working on '12+ Civic Si

Not sure if this has been reported, but the live tuning option doesn't work for the VTEC window table on the '12+ Civic Si. Any idea when this could be fixed?

Also, is there any chance that you'll be adding a "VSA Enabled" option for the '12+ Civic, so that we can get rid of the annoying throttle cut every time we chirp the front tires?

Post your calibration and a detailed description of how it is not working.

No, as the ABS system is part of the VSA system and cannot be disabled via the ECU. You will have to use the disable VSA button on the dash if you wish to disable your VSA.

Here is a sample calibration with the VTEC window set from 3200 to 5000 RPMs. The VTEC Window Pressure table is set to Live, and it acts like it thinks it is live. However, when I change the RPM values while live tuning to change the VTEC engagement points, it doesn't take effect unless I actually upload the calibration again. It works like a champ for the S2000...

Just to be clear about the VSA enable option, is there not a way to make it like the S2000, which does have a "VSA enable" option? The option doesn't do anything with the ABS system at all, but it does prevent the ECU from cutting power to the engine. It makes the car MUCH more enjoyable to drive.

The VTEC pressure table will be fixed in the next beta release.

VSA works differently in the newer cars than it did in the older ones.
