So the performance additions I had before the tune was the PE, PI, and cyba scoops (if you would even consider it to be lol) -- really good sounds with those 2 things together

After dumping around 2K into the car just for those simple performance mods I thought I would buck up and go a little further for the tune. And man was it worth it. On the half hour drive home I was grinning the whole time. Right off the start you feel like the car is alive and ready to eat the road up. The car really pulls harder and I feel like Im stretching the across the rpm's. and by that I mean each gear pulls just as hard. Beofre the tune I felt like the most fun I could have was putting it into M1 and flooring it cause after that when you hit M2 the pull wasnt nearly the same. But now its the exact opposite.
I was SHOCKED when I was at the light and floor it for the first time. I was blown away. Maybe it was because I wasnt expecting it but off the bat I was pushed into my seat and I held tight. Perfect smooth pulls through all the gears and for some reason when it hits 3rd I feel like it pushes harder? maybe someone with the tune can jump in and say something? I am very very happy. Every gear goes to redline which I never noticed before.

When I reached the freeway I started testing 60 - 90mph runs. Before the tune my car would just drop a gear and rev loud and just tug a little more. But now I noticed it drops 2 sometimes 3 gears and I feel like it reaches up the redline every time which like I said before I have notice before. Very pleased. really feels like the tune was more than just 15hp

So long story short this is the best 430 bucks I have ever spent on my car, and I recommend it to everyone. And I was informed that the tune will adjust to how I drive so each day it should get a little peppy-er(?) for the first couple days

Anyways, I would like to thank the guys down at Oceanside Motorsports for putting this on my car. Special thanks to Neal with being a huge help with all my annoying questions And anyone in SoCal I would recommend getting the tune for them if you are considering it. They were done with the car in about 5 hours and it only costed me 430 bucks which I think is an INCREDIBLE price for the power coming from this tune.


My next plans for the car are to try and get ahold of LTBMW for a visual update buttttt Im not sure how to get ahold of them or anything, I havent quite firgured that out so it someone could chime in and give me some information about them Id appreciate it
i kept looking at the title to make sure you didnt install a supercharger lol
