I dont know too much about tuning, so I'll admit I have no idea what canned tune is, but I'm talkin if I were to go to a dyno to get a tune what company's tune should I be lookin out for? If that makes any sense

I'd wait on the tune until you put more stuff on your car...spending money on a dyno tune for a car with an intake wouldn't be worth your money

Well I personally didnt dyno my car, but im tunning my car in two months with my injectors, Im expecting 35hp added on.


THE 08's are amazing to tune. My friend got 280hp and over 330lbs torque.

I might have to disagree with you there, I have seen it first hand and I was in awe!! You would be surprised how much different that stage 2 feels compared to just an intake.

That's why I wanted to get a 2.4 SS (to put a turbo on), but I couldn't find one that I wanted so I just got the SS/SC and now I have fallen in love with it!

Exactly why a turbo needed to be put on. I wanted an SS for the suspension, and just all out better look in my opinion. I mean I have the 2.4 spoiler, yes thats right I dont have the wing. I kinda like it though cuz it doesn't stand out as much.

they should of just turbo it to begin with! i mean seriously if they could only put out 205 SUPERCHARCHED why whats the point they shoulda just turbod it to begin with and put out 260 horses off the bat!

yes the SS are nice i have the SS spoiler on mine but i kinda wanna get rid of it i also have 19" Racinghart rims with Falken tires on that i kinda wanna get rid of they are fora universal 5 lug but they fit on some 4 lugs its wierd!
