Came here to make sure this was posted. I'm still on the side of leaving the car as close to stock as possible, but this is certainly interesting.Check this out! Another Great video!
Fucking same man lol, this is the first brand new car i've ever owned so having some type or warranty is a little security blanket i've never experienced, I asked my service rep about modding and he said you can do whatever you want except for ECU tuning and downpipe, insert the meme of the guy sweating with the veins popping out of his forehead after watching this video.Came here to make sure this was posted.

TL;DR, ~90 whp and ~85 wtq on 93 octane after basic "stage 2" mods and an off-the-shelf tune. Puts it at very nearly 400 whp. Pretty impressive, but I am very curious about how this plays into the overall "spirit" of the car, for lack of a better phrase.
I bought this car to go around corners, but these guys at AHC are getting me to seriously think about things.
Not sure if it would be safer since it's tricking the systems sensors to pull more boost/power. Id take a real tune.It is interesting.
This is why I'm using a JB4. running around 350 HP and 350 torque. Plug and play, easy to remove. Without an ECU flash and other supporting mods, this is about the best you can do. Makes it pull a little harder, but keeps the ECU safety's in place.
You're doing that poor car a massive disservice.It is interesting.

Just be careful. Derek knows what he's talking about. He tunes these cars on a daily basis. Checkout his FB posts, it's impressive.I understand. It runs great though. If I ever get interested in downpipe and beyond I'm sure I'll take the next steps.
(response to Derek above)
Torque reduction and ignition-based traction control go a long way.My car is completely stock and it overwhelms the front tires in first and partially second gear. How is this additional 100HP usable on the street, except for over 100MPH speeds which will get you in jail? I feel the car is well balanced power wise stock, im glad this options are available for people that want it though.
Totally understand. I'm sure he's great.Just be careful. Derek knows what he's talking about. He tunes these cars on a daily basis. Checkout his FB posts, it's impressive.
