had a car come in this morning with the owner complaing about a few things his mail order tune was doing funny..

so ran it up and it spat out a huge 161rwhp.. thats with CAI, extractors, high flow cats and a good cat back.. around the same figure as a bog stocker...

so blew the tune away retuned to suit.. 191rwhp.. about spot on the money for those mods and 30rwhp gain over his $550 mail order rubbish..

Are all mail order tunes the same rubbish for the VZ? (not that I'm thinking of "tuning" my VZ)
