At what miles did you tune your car and is it still tuned?

Lmao. Noted. But wow the difference is night and day. The drive back home was :spaz:
No doubt. The passing power feels like a small V6 doesn't it?

Yeah something like that. Now I’m thinking about other mods. This is what I was trying to avoid -.-. But since you’re here is the prl intakes worth it for the cvt? Aha

Stop!! before you get too deep and end up with a full bolt on custom tuned ethanol drinking daily. The bug bites hard once you start

Yea man that’s where I’m at, next step is brakes and bigger turbo otherwise I’m making as much power as I can on stock turbo. I wish I just got a cheap project car(integra, 335i,350z) instead of going all in, especially since clutch is usually needed with very minimal power mods

I'm sorry, I'm real new to cars but what does tuning mean and what are the benefits?

Simple version...

Tuning changes certain parameters within your ECU to create a much better driving car. More power and more fun. The main benefit? More smiles per gallon.

Now you know. :thumbsup:

Tuned with KTuner v1.2 at 11700 miles, currently 17600 on the clock. Running the 21psi map. No issues here, just loving every minute of it.
After going to game 7 a few months ago, I decided to go to Vegas on 10/2 to troll all you Knights fans in my Labanc jersey :popcorn::)
