I am just blown away by the power increase. I cannot believe how much power was hidden inside this car.

I have to totally recalibrate how I drive her now. This machine is soooo much faster at the end of the straights on my twisty roads, and she is putting down epic wheel spin coming outta 2nd gear corners now.

I wish I had this done five years ago when I bought the car.

If you folks want some easy power, just send your Box to Flat 6 Innovations have them do their magic.

Wow.


Stock engine ?

Yes...

Yes.

Stock engine.

Only engine mods are deleted secondary cats and the FVD Brombacher “Sound Version” muffler.

I needed new plugs and coil packs, so Flat 6 installed their “performance” ignition coils that are of their own design on top of stock plugs.

I had always thought performance tunes on a stock engine were a bunch of malarkey. But Flat 6 had always been good to me over the years and while I had the car there for some maintenance parts, water pump, A/O, coolant tank, etc., I went ahead and decided to invest in their tune.

I wish I had had them do that five years ago when I first sent it in for the IMS Solution.

I am just shocked that it really has given me that much more power. I can’t believe it.

Cheers.
