My P1 tuner brothers are going with a big booth. I wont be there, but Dan and Mark and a few of the other tuners will be there doing live demos and tuning cars in person.

8 hours is what a real shop that knows how to do them charges labor for. $1200 is about average cost. Less is suspect and more means they dont want to do it.

If you arent getting a tune either for NA then sure get one. But any tuner should be able to change the pedal demand for you and its dramatic when its done right.

Dont get this. The whipple tune completely changes pedal tq demand and the pedal demand ramp ups. That will severely ruin the drivability. You shouldnt run that anyway. Just get a tune if youre NA. Pedal demand ramp ups can be easily refined and should be.

Yes this is correct. I have a 2019 file and in drag (sand) mode its locked out from 6th on.

no it doesnt. Drag mode has the least amount of tq modulation as well.

Quick update. The stock cats lasted 800ish miles. RIP stock cats. The car started to blow smoke under boost and got a quite a bit louder and smellier after the last few rips last week. Figured they were going, so had to get them gutted. Car is perfect again now and rips HARDER than before...

No site I just run from my TikTok page. 5k followers over 200+ videos of my customer cars. And yes disable auto SS and do lots of other quality of life things as well. TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@briangfordtuning?_r=1&_t=ZP-94gxIpmHmU3

Ive tuned 267 of them since July of last year. There are tremendous gains in both performance and drivability getting a quality tune. I tuned my personal GT at about 100 miles on the odo and its the way it should be from the factory.

Yeah, the whole manifold had to come off. Then you cut the front of it off and it’s a straight shot right into the cat. Lots of work but worth it.

I took the easy way out and gutted the cats. Wow what a massive difference in power now. Not too much louder too.

Discussed to death is the understatement of the centry. As everyone eventually finds out, buy a bottle of Liquimoly Ceratec and dump it in after every oil change. It will remove the tick until you change the oil again. You're welcome.

Mine had something come through the exhaust and appears to have bent the tip too.

Are they seeing smoke under boost? That’s my current issue and I’m positive it’s cats melting in real time. Doesn’t feel down on power.

I’m starting to get some white soot on my tips and some smoke under boost and the car is noticeably louder and smells bad at idle. I think mine failed or are in the process of failing. I have the ESS kit. Tuning on my own obv. It’s apparently clear the stock cats are a liability.

Thats not ideal. I took a blood vow with myself many years ago to never again own a car with no cats. I cant stand how awful the raw exhaust smells, plus the coyote becomes so ratty sounding with headers and no cats. Its just not on my playlist.

What are we looking at for LTHs that are safe for boost? Kooks? Stainless works? Anyone have any experience with them yet?

It was super easy man. hour tops and that is swearing included.

No you dont need to do any of that. I did mine a few days ago, took about an hour. A few socket extensions worked perfect. I removed my strut tower brace and the engine cover, and that was it. Getting to the back passenger side was the hardest, but if you use a 6" extension and a 5/8...
