It's just mentally difficult for me to run the needle to 7k, which is 500 rpm (and a decent amount of sweep) INTO the drawn redline and the bottom of the gauge
. I think that's why I just have a hard time doing it. On a WRX it's much easier because 7k leaves 2k of additional tach left. For me it's bottoming out the gauge

hey i never talked **** about his tuning abilities, cause to be honest i dont know how good he is, i havent seen his work and what not.
I did talk **** about his douchebag tactics and how he presented himself on these forums. What he did was douchetastic.. And i called him out on it, and will continue to do so for as long as he acts that way.
Its not personal

Dear <insert name here>,
You're douchetastic.
Love, Dre.
PS. If you took that personally, you're a douche.

Anyway, back on topic. Nice tune Ed, looks good! It's reviews like these that make it harder for me to try to NOT start dumping money into my car to see what I can get out of it.
one nice thing bout the bay is you cant go wrong now with tuners, just about everyone around here knows their **** proper now..
Be it gruppe-s s2, lic, shivnu, or any of the other tuners around here..
And worse comes to worse if by an act of god they screw up.. someone else can help..

I've been pretty busy and really haven't had the opportunity to drive my car as much as I would like. Finally got the chance to really have some fun a couple days ago though. Highway was just empty for whatever reason (it was late, but not weird late) so I got to run through the gears coming off of the on-ramp. Got off at the next exit and back on, through the gears, off, back on, through the gears, then off and to my house...
...Ear-2-ear grin. The car runs amazingly and just pulls and pulls and pulls. Half of the smile was from just enjoying the car and the tune, and I think the other half was the g-forces
I've floored it in all conditions we've had. From cold and rainy to the hottest days we've had in the past couple weeks. Floored it from the lowest spooled rpm's in 5th gear... it's perfect. I have yet to find any glitch. Throttle control, throttle response... it's just smooth all-around. Really impressed.
Thanks again, Ed
Jeremy

Jeremy,
I'm glad you're enjoying the car as well as puting the tune through its paces. Its customers like you who motivate me to spend the extra time to really get everything in line. BTW, I'd still like to see the car on a nice hot day for a little "post-tune checkup"
Thanks
