DON'T go to tune time performance, that is all.

hmmm lets start.

I personally know 5 or so cars that blew within weeks of getting tuned. My tune absolutely sucks dick(from day 1). He doesn't street tune, he doesn't do any partial throttle tuning, just flat out PE WOT tuning. Every single person that I know of locally hates his work.

You guys don't live local and hear about half the **** that comes from there.

Matt turns the wick up on his tunes, so people who beat their car 24/7 are gonna blow up. There are general understandings of what you can do and what you can't do once your tuned.

Anytime you push something harder than stock then you are at risk. I have never ran any of his tunes, but I know he knows his ****.

Yea, so me doing a few pulls here and there, then one night it magically kills 2 pistons on a single 40-115 pull...Right

How about my terrible idle surge, or my 180miles per tank, not hitting boost? Or my "tuned" car running slower than stock? Wait, what about the LNF car that he has pushing 25psi that started pushing coolant and he had to "back off" the tune. There's a bunch more that goes on out here that you guys don't know about.

Come on sted, you know who I am. I supported Matt time and time again, but after actually seeing my tune on a laptop compared to others, and the simple way that my car runs, I'm just giving my experiences.

I know you?



The only Damien I know is a short little guy who can sing his ass off and would happen to be one of the funniest guys I've ever met.

Hey if you have had **** experiences than that's on you, putting a kit on is something within their shop's means.

Yea, you know that slow orange car from up around the shop's area. I happen to be a short little guy, but can't sing

Matt is a smart guy, does indeed know his stuff. But when it comes to tuning cobalts, imo there is better.

perhaps, but i dont forsee him messing up a pretty straight foreward turbo install.

are we talking new intake manifold (the right way), or like ghetto s/c makeshift manifold?
