This is a customer’s car in California with Tapout remote tune.  Modifications include intake, methanol injection, spark plugs and exhaust with catalytic converters still in place.  This chart was from a remote tune we performed using a local dyno with wideband logging through HP Tuners VCM Scanner.  At the time of this dyno tune, the car has run a best quarter mile time of 10.776 @ 127.73 mph.  There’s more to come, so stay tuned.

This is a 2016 ATS-V in Florida with a remote Tapout Tune.  Modifications include fuel cam and downpipes, running on 93 octane fuel.  This chart was from a remote tune we performed using a local dyno and wideband.

We performed several international remote tunes for this ATS-V in Israel.  Car has intake, interchiller, methanol injection, spark plugs, downpipes and x-pipe.  One tune is for pump gas, a second for when he adds Toluene fuel additive and a third for methanol injection.  He runs a wideband oxygen sensor, which helps us to dial in his air/fuel ratio very nicely.

A competitor had previously performed a custom dyno tune on this completely stock 2016 ATS-V A8 and claimed 492 whp. We took a look at the tune and found four major issues. First, the competitor has desensitized the knock sensor settings so the ECM could no longer protect the engine in case lower octane fuel was ever put in the fuel tank. Second, the competitor has disabled fuel trim learning, taking away the ECM’s ability to correct air/fuel ratio based on feedback from the factory oxygen sensors. Third, they didn’t understand how to properly command boost at higher engine speeds, resulting in boost, torque and horsepower curves looking like a roller coaster. And fourth, actual horsepower was only 435 whp, which was only about 10 whp more than stock and 57 whp less than claimed. After doing a baseline run, we loaded a Tapout tune in the car and made some minor adjustments. Competitive tune (blue lines) is overlaid with Tapout tune (red lines) in the above dyno chart. This car is much more powerful and quite a bit safer now with the new Tapout tune in place.

This 2016 ATS-V has Renick Performance air intake, charged air pipes, downpipes and Borla cat-back exhaust and Tapout Tuning Remote Tune @ 19 psi of boost. Even on a Mustang dyno he shows more than 500 foot-pounds of torque at the wheels all the way from 3,800 to 6,100 rpm. That is a very wide and flat powerband that will make this car a blast to drive!
