Right, now that the ridiculousness is done, seems like Phoenix is doing good work. Any before and after numbers etc.?
Also, I don't suppose you have a before 0-100 vs after?
Was it a remote tune or are they able to tune on site up here?
Will be interesting to see what you actually get for your money, especially when compared to the coast. most results we've seen are coast based, but that doesn't really help us.

Should be interesting.

I could post a video of me beating a Porsche, it means nothing. You have to be realistic.

Yep, stock 03 WRX does 6.6 secs so even that wouldn't be a fair match for a tjooned 86(at the coast). It is fun making slow cars think they can though.

With my ST (270wkw 580 nm) I used to let the golfs run 2-3 meters ahead. It makes their whole life seem worth it. Imagine the race tales they told.
