Tell me about it!, good thing i have a V1

One thing i noticed is that they did not play to much with the rev limiter, what does your shift at ( assuming you have the 7g ) if not any difference on the 6spd?

Well, i wanted to confirm that the speed limiter had been removed, so i went to a 4 lane highway that i know is always empty late. Lets just say i buried the speedometer, and i was looking at the digital 160+

Hey bro, noticed you're from CT.

I'm in Newington, and was wondering if you would mind meeting up one day? I'm really interested in the ECU tune, and the Sprint Booster, and would love to experience it first hand before purchasing. Thanks in advance bro.

JLevi used to be a sponsor on here. Some have purchased from K1 motorsport (although they are not a sponsor).

So how much is it total?
Did you ship your ecu to them? How long is it going to take?
Will it affect the mpg?
How can you go back to stock tune?

Will you recomend it? Hows the power now? Is it worth the money? I just want to know a ballpark figure, did you pay $600, $800 or $1k? Thanks for the help!!

u prolly pay more for exhaust and yet not notice any gains...
with ECU tune, u'll notice the extra power instantly...
so it is worth every penny to me...
for my car it was around 600 figure...
