Civic Type R Package Issues (many cars)

Hi there, I run a small shop in North Carolina USA and I mainly deal with Civic Type R (FK8 chassis) parts and accessories. I bought a FK8 kit for my personal car and have since had 5 more of my customers buy them from the same dealer, Salasko Racing. All of our cars have small issues that are unable to be fixed because the packages are locked.

R Mode switch is in "FAULT"- We cannot use that to change boost/traction/throttle settings. (.0018 works, but anything after is broken)
All ECUs- sometimes stalls with gear shift mode on
All ECUs- AC Request is faulted to always "on" (every version), ended up buy a keypad and a dash to write my own input just to be able to shut the AC on and off without a laptop.
All ECUs- OEM G meter looks like it barely moves, as if its a decimal place off in the can? This hurts our ability to scale traction control.
ECU # 20313 adapter box had an input wired incorrectly and faulted to ground
ECU # 20315 and #13540 Cruise does not work, Status "unknown", .0018 and .0042
ECU #20315 Boost Gauge wraps around from 29 to -15, others do not.
ECU #1993 Cruise follow does not work properly, BCM brakes and ECU accelerates at the same time, target cruise mph does not change.
"Honda civic Circumference" is 2032.9 meters. Moving the decimal to the correct spot as the instructions state will cause issues. (2.0329)

I hope this gets the attention of someone to start working on these issues or more easily, allow our dealer to have the ability to modify our packages so they can be fixed in a timely fashion
