I had an OFT before going JRSC. With stage 1 tune it ran worse than stock. I paid around 200 buck to have a custom tune by shiv of OFT. We went back and forth for about 2 months with 13 different tunes until the final tune. The car really didn't have much more power, but ran so much smoother. Btw, this was with trd intake and cat back. If you expect more power just buying the oft you will be disapointed.

I don't agree. I have mine running the Stage 1 tune and it's so much better than stock.

That's how it was with my car, in fact, the first log I sent Shiv running the off the shelf stage 1 91 Tune, he asked if I was mistakenly running 87 Octain because it had so much knock. No,I was running 91. Just goes to show that the canned tune doesn't always work out.

The custom tune was awesome, ran really good. I almost hated to go FI. I'm keeping my OFT with the custom tune just in case I go back NA.

Nope, even ran it out and refilled at a different station and logs looked the same.

That is funny! I ordered "leather seat skins" that were 50% leather. Opened the box - smelled like vinyl. Sent them back ordered the 100% leather kit. Opened the box - ahhh leather. LOL!

Oh yeah my worst mod. An Ikon PU lip I bought for $84.99 shipped. It needed soooooo much sanding and shaping. I ripped it off anyway!
