Ed has ***** of steel - And he gave me one!

Yes, you heard right. Before doing the tune, we popped open the mbc because it was installed not 100% right, and when he took out the ball he set it down on the little groove where the glass and hood meet, and it fell right through a little hole! Rather than being ****ed and having to order a new ball, ed took the ball out of his MBC and put it in mine. He gave me one if his *****. How many tuners can you say will do that for you?

He road tuned my vf-34 06 wrx w/ a titek catted downpipe, a borla hush, a USDM STi tmic and a 255lph fuel pump. Tuning went very smoothly, and the car felt very strong and drove super super smooth when he was finished with it. I made 273 horse power at the wheels and a whopping 300 ftlbs of torque. Thanks for a great tune ed! And thanks for your ball =].

You should come to Mardi Gras and just so happen to stay at my place so I can get a tune. All drinks on me and I'll send you home a few hundred bucks richer.

Definitely something I'll consider. Always wanted to come out for Mardi Gras.

With a VF34 and supporting mods on the 2.0, I generally see 260-275whp and 240-255ft-lbs of torque. The peak whp numbers are generally similar on the 2.0l and 2.5l but the 2.5's get significantly more torque and general are under the curve.

Thanks
