Thanks for the post! I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on my summer mods (the 981 Spyder looks great, but I'm going to stick with the classic original) could you provide a bit more feedback?
- Were the mods well worth the price (exhuast, tune, filter)
-Why did you pick BGB over Softronic....they claim 360hp on 93 octane with similar mods.
-How do you like the Remus....I've heard it is on the quiet side, I'm looking at FVD or Cargraphic?
Thanks again!!!

Wow, nice!

If I am reading correctly, you gained about 20 wheel HP/TQ? How noticeable is the tune from the seat of your pants?

Thanks again for sharing your objective and substantiated results. So if I am reading correctly you picked up apprx 12hp with the remus/vflow retaining OE manifolds/full cats and you picked up another 21 hp with the tune?

Keep in mind though that mine is a custom tune, and Jan related the usual gain is in the 10-13 rwhp/tq range.

Also consider though that there have been customers of other vendors who could not duplicate claims,

so to me, even if it's 10-13, that's still great in customer verified numbers for an off the shelf tune NA on a 3.4L engine.

Thanks for the info. My car happens to already be at BGB right now and was considering a tune.
