And supposedly they did not even put overboost protection which they say comes standard in their tunes. They also told me they didnt have enough room to add it ahah.Not saying their a bad tuning company just expected a lot more from them seeing how popular they are. But I have heard great things on bills custom tunes. But be careful with flash and go tunes!!

Overboosting is a mechanical failure. Don't blame the tune for something it's not responsible for. Overboost protection is only added upon request, iirc.

Oh Of course it's a mechanical problem but was told when I got tune it had overboost protection. Then after was told their wasn't enough room for it lol. Just letting people know make sure they have overboost protection!!

Also I don't blame them for car over boosting anything could've cause that. But I do blame them for lying telling me I had ob protection when I bought tune. And after telling me they didnt have enough room. To me that's a bullshit excuse especially for something like that that could've potentially saved my motor and saved me thousands of dollars. Also the fact that I sent them logs of when it overboosted and was only supposed to be running 7.5 lbs of boost and was hitting around 17, 18lbs. And they also lied about that and said it was only hitting around 9lbs when I have logs to prove it ahah. Not trying to bash on them like I said I have respect for bill I've heard many great thingso about his tunes. Just unfortunately I had a bad experience with them and would not trust them with my car again.

I'm in Aus and went with Delicious Tuning because of their reputation on this forum etc. I am so bloody happy with the work Zach has put in for me, you have no idea. I wish there were more companies like Delicious in Australia.
Tune is pretty much bang on perfect, exchanged near 30 emails with Zach prior to doing tune asking all sorts of questions, before I'd even bought my EcuTek cable. I cannot praise them enough.
