includes both maps on vf series

Of course I'll be out of town.
Any idea when Gadiel will be back in Tampa?

depends on interest.....when I start getting 2 or 3 inquiries for a tune then I set up a date with Gadiel and start getting people for the tune. I have 3 cars for the tune currently. Gadiel is going to be coming every or every other month based on need.

So, anyone that wants a Gadiel tune and can't make this one just send me a pm when you are ready and as long as I can get a cuople cars then I setup another tune

I would get rid of that avc-r for an HBC to if you want steady boost.. And if you have over 850's on the car he prefers to have a hydra as well.
Badmutha- what did you get on that vp 120? mine has been running pristine ha..

Will a tune help my car out? I'm running 16psi boost from a stock turbo, with no cats, perrin intercooler and intake tubes, flowmaster muffler, perrin sways @ strut/tower braces, momo short ratchet shifter, K&N filter, ummm and i think thats about it... Just bought it, previous owner said it needed tuned so the boost could be turned up higher than 16psi... How much higher can we go with stock turbo? Will my car bennefit from a tune? I'd rather spend the 300 on a light bar and some lights, but if this tune will help and it will get rid of the CEL for no o2 sensor in catless downpipe, I'll do it. If its close.

its a 2002 suby wrx sedan

He wont tune open source so you need to have an AP or some other ECU managment so you will be spending more than just his fee to get a tune.

Thats dumb I'll just tune it myself. ROFLMAO

So i buy the cobb=$600

Have gladiel press buttons on it for $300

Then I can kick myself in the nutts when i'm done for free. Try kicking yourself in the nutts, $100 says it's physically impossible.


I'm sure the tune is worth it I just dont care that much. The car is bad ass the way it is, so for $900 i could take a vacation, buy a crappy boat, etc.

EDIT
COUGH no its not i just did it..... You gotta bring the foot up to your waste and swing inwards with your heel... it works

Gadiel really only tunes for some kind of EM? That sucks; I thought the only appeal of the AP was that you can switch back and forth between maps -- not that you can create maps with it. He won't tune something opensource and flash it with ECUflash??
