Tapout Tuning has Always Got You Covered!

Whether you want to go all out with our Brown Belt Package or are just looking for basic service for your ATS-V, Tapout has got you covered. If you just bought your ATS-V and want to be sure everything is in good working order, we can complete a full inspection so you can know exactly what you’re dealing with.

James from Ohio had just purchased a 2017 ATS-V and the only information he was able to get from the seller was that it should “only run straight E85”. That being said, we knew the car must have had several modifications done to allow for that. After looking his ATS-V over from top to bottom and taking a data scan during a drive, we found that his fuel system was quite overtaxed at the ethanol content he was running. That’s a dangerous for an LF4, especially if James were to go WOT. We recommended dropping the ethanol content to E60 – E70 because that’s what his current fuel mods could safely accommodate.

We discussed all of this information with James and provided him an overview on everything we found with his ATS-V. He was happy to know exactly what he was working with so he could not only improve the performance, but also improve the safety and reliable of his ATS-V. This is just one more way Tapout Tuning continues to provide support to the community through every avenue possible.

Our One Year Dynoversary!

Today officially marks one year since we completed the installation of our DynoJet Dynomometer and wow have we learned a lot! Over this time we’ve had countless ATS-Vs on our dyno and with each car comes even more knowledge and experience. The controlled setting of a dyno allows for precision tuning and we can safely tune your ATS-V to the highest possible level while still never sacrificing reliability or drivability.

To celebrate this anniversary, we’re offering $250 off all in-house dyno tunes if you book with us by next Wednesday 10/27/2021! Your dyno tune doesn’t have to take place during this time period, you just need to book it. Send us an email to Sales@TapoutTuning.com with the year, transmission and current mods of your ATS-V and a time you would like to schedule. You can spend a day at the Tapout Tuning Headquarters and see just how well your ATS-V can really perform!

*Offer not valid with other discounts

Tapout Tune of the Week!

Do you ever say to yourself, “you know what, I’m going to leave this car stock”? No? We don’t either…because what’s the fun in that. Like most things in life, it’s nice to change things up to keep it exciting.

James in North Carolina was looking to make some improvements to his ATS-V so he purchased our Tapout Downpipes and a Remote Tune. It’s a quick and easy way to add some serious power and breathe new life into your ATS-V. “I’m absolutely loving the tune done by Scott Cook. The downpipes sound so damn good. The most impressive thing about my tuned V by Scott is I can spin the tires in third gear”, James said. We know the ATS-V is fun in stock form, but with a Tapout Tune, we turn things up to 11!

Impressive Results from Another Purple Belt Package!

Our friend D’Angelo came down from Michigan to the Tapout Tuning Headquarters for his Purple Belt Performance Package and Mace Stage 1 cams installation to crank things up with his ATS-V. This package and cam combination with our tuning produces an incredible powerband that you can truly see and feel.

Notice that his torque was above 600 from 3,000 to 5,500 rpm and his horsepower was above 600 all the way from 5,000 to 6,500 rpm! That means D’Angelo has access to a massive amount of horsepower and torque at almost any time, just look at that powerband! This is performance you can use whether you’re at the track, on the street or cruising the beautiful backroads.

Tapout Tune of the Week!

Whether we’re upgrading turbos or just providing a Remote Tune, we love the reaction our customers have when they see the transformation their ATS-V has gone through.

George in Ohio came to us for a tune and spark plugs right after his warranty was up. Though after finishing his tune he told us he wish he would have just voided his warranty! “Now this car is a true V with 485 whp and 485 ft lbs of torque. All I did was install new plugs and a tune. These guys really transformed they way my car performs. It pulls so hard from 2,500 rpm and on in any gear now”. A Tune and spark plugs really wake these ATS-Vs up, and no matter how far you want to take your own, you know we’re here every step of the way!
