Nothing makes us happier than seeing our customers and friends work their way up the Quarter Mile Rankings, and we love helping make that happen! The ATS-V platform has so many possibilities, and with new aftermarket modifications continuously being developed there is no limit to where these cars can go. Tapout Tuning can help you to get the most out of your ATS-V because we have the products and expertise to do so.

Tapout Wideband Now Available!

Tapout Tuning is proud to announce that we are now offering a wideband O2 gauge! The Ballenger Motorsports AFR500 makes wideband O2 measurement to determine real time air/fuel ratio. This is an invaluable tool for making adjustments to get the most efficiency and power out of your engine when road tuning.

The AFR500 can read air/fuel ratio values from 9.0:1 to 16.0:1 for standard range. It provides a resolution of 0.1 to provide an excellent tuning range for performance vehicles. It even offers a linear analog output to be used as an input to engine control systems, gauges or data acquisition systems. This means no additional holes in your exhaust system as it can replace one of your existing rear oxygen sensors on cars without catalytic converters.

Tapout Tuning is always looking for new and exciting ways to make your ATS-V better, and this is just one of the many solutions we have to offer!

Beat Your Best Times at the Track with a Tapout Tune!

Excitement is in the air at the Tapout Tuning Headquarters as we continue to have customers beat all their previous records at the track. Even customers who set their own best records on Tapout Tunes have since beaten those records with a tune, tweak or update from Tapout. This is all possible through our Tuning Subscription Service that allows you to have access to scan data analysis, engine modification recommendations, racing recommendations and tuning improvements.

Our friend Dave Bowen of California has beaten his best time again, running a 10.776 @ 127.73 mph! His 2017 ATS-V is equipped with a New Era intake, full 3″ exhaust with 200 cell cats (+500 cfm each), methanol injection and a Tapout Tune.

ATS-V Low Pressure Fuel Pump Now Available!

One of the main limiting factors of the ATS-V has been its OEM fuel system. The stock system consists of a low-pressure electrical pump in the fuel tank and a high-pressure mechanical pump driven by the driver’s side exhaust camshaft. Stock ATS-V fuel systems are already starting to have difficulty keeping up by 18 pounds of boost and 500 whp. We see the high pressure drop off on every ATS-V we tune as soon as boost is increased. The more boost we add, the worse the problem gets.

By adding our low-pressure fuel pump, you can provide yourself extra padding and safety when tuning your ATS-V for higher horsepower numbers than stock. This system provides a much stronger low-pressure fuel pump and will increase the low-pressure fuel system volume. It will help prop up the entire fuel system, compounding the gains of the soon to be released aftermarket high fuel pressure fuel pump and/or fuel cam. As a bonus, no special tuning is needed to run this LPFP.

Check out the graph below to see how our LPFP and HPFP with fuel cam can easily maintain full pressure at 23 psi and 600 whp on E85.
