I did not drive it without a tune. But it feel amazing over stock, so much punchier, I don't even notice the torque dip and I can pass people on the highway without downshifting.

I'm a newb. Nikon D5300 with an 18-55m lense. I just bought it like last week.

Also, got around to an exhaust video that I've been asked for so many times.

Sorry for the wind!

My car was stock for 3 years, and the torque dip/lack of low down power was starting to irritate me a little...

Then did headers and op and the tune with a Flexfuel kit. Even on normal gas the torque dip is gone (e85 is even better!) and of course the sound is awesome!
HIGHLY recommended and not too expensive mod I.m.o.

Do it.
