Does anyone have an APR ECU? What do you think?

The optimax map is superb, but there is / was a wee bit of a flatspot in the 95 ron map. I have 3 maps, and use the 95 for emergencies when on low octane petrol - the flat spot is not a huge issue, but enough to be irritating if you used the map all the time.

Knowing the excellent people at APR, they have probbably solved the issue by now, and I should get my free ECU upgrade to solve my issue.

I have stock map (265bhp), standard unleaded 95 ron (310ish bhp) and optimax map (333bhp, 400lbft according to AmD's rollers and as featured in audi driver mag - therefore realistically 320bhp and maybe 370-380lb/ft torque on most other's rollers!)
