ATS-V on the track

Nines and Tens All Day!

Congratulations to four Tapout team members who all set new personal bests at Dragway 42 on Friday.

Paul and Ethan Browning are new to drag racing, and they’re doing an incredible job learning how to drive for maximum performance. They improved their best time to 10.22 @ 132.7 mph. Paul holds a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and his 2018 ATS-V is also equipped with its own Purple Belt. Being ranked within the top one percent of all ATS-Vs in all four major categories (dyno horsepower, quarter mile, eighth mile and 60 to 130 mph) is especially impressive with no weight reduction whatsoever.

Jorge Munoz drove his 2016 ATS-V in from Florida like he does every month, and set a new personal best time of 10.15 @ 131.9 mph running the Purple Belt Performance Package. He hasn’t added any new mods in the last year, and we love seeing this car running 10.1x to 10.3x consistently every time out.

Manny de la Cruz came in from Pennsylvania with his 2016 ATS-V coupe. We added Stage 2 valve springs, titanium retainers and camshafts to his existing Purple Belt setup, and on Friday he made four passes of 10.06, 9.91, 9.89 and 9.85 @ 136.2 mph. Saturday he went back to the track and ran 9.99 and 9.96 with a little more weight, in slightly worse conditions. Stay tuned as Manny shoots for 9.6x on factory turbos when better air moves in this fall.

Bob Cook doesn’t mess around. This summer he landed a great deal on salvage title ATS-V. It had minor flood damage and a blown engine. He installed a new GM long block and upgraded to our Brown Belt Performance Package. On Friday he started with a half track pass to make sure everything seemed safe. Next he made a 1,000’ pass, letting off a few hundred feet early, and still ran 9.70 @ 135.0 mph. At this point the car had some codes for fuel pump circuit voltages and we weren’t able to get them resolved at the track. We’ll work through the electrical issues and expect to see much more from Bob in the near future.

#StayTuned for more from the Tapout Tuning Team as we continue to push this platform further than anyone thought possible!

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!

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!
