I think we know how good the software is, its been in the STI-R for a while and on the STI-R Plus. IMO its not going to increase long range sensitivity by much, but it will make it similar to the RedLine and be much quicker.

The main difference, to my knowledge, between the Sti-R+ & the 9500ci are the Ka segmentation & RDR features. If so, shouldn't the new 9500ix platform with these same features see the same leaps in performance on the M4 level that are experienced with the Sti-R+ over the 9500ci on the M3 level.

We could assume logically the same percentage increase on the Plus over the CI would correlate to the 9500ix using the same features (Band Seg RDR). But it is a different platform so it may be only slightly more of a percentage or less.

Ill see if i can get one in a few months and test it out.
