Since when? It's common knowledge it doesn't, and never has. Unless things have changed with the F series.

In some cases if your fuel is particularly bad or if you are trying to tune a large turbo or nitrous car it is beneficial to also use CPS offsetting to cap the maximum advance set points. For that you would get the fully user adjustable JB4 CPS module for $85. It also includes a speed limit defeat.

That's why they sold the CPS. It's always relied on the stock DME's aggressive curves.

There are many, many threads on the subject.

I mean, did you research this before making this statement? Have a link?
