By beta he means pre-release, in-testing. It may be ready, or may still have a bug or two, which is why a 'beta' release.

What does it take to apply the tune? Is it a DIY process or do you need a professional?

What exactly does the tune change? Does it make the car any less driveable for the street? Would it affect the warranty?

-Thanks
