Tapout Tune of the Week!

Much like a fingerprint, no two ATS-Vs are exactly the same. While there are commonalities between them, the key is being able to fine tune each particular ATS-V so that it is performing at its absolute best.

Manny in Pennsylvania has had experience with many different tunning companies on several different platforms so he knew what to expect when it came time to tune his ATS-V. After working with us he went on to say, “Besides his wealth of knowledge on how to optimize the LF4 platform, his customer service in the tuning industry is unparalleled”. We’re always working to push this platform forward and our knowledge never stops growing.

Average is never acceptable to us and that’s why our tunes just keep getting better and better. In fact, Manny has been using his Dragy to see how well his ATS-V has been performing. He just posted an awesome 6.29 second 60 to 130 mph Dragy time and we’re stoked for him!

Paul’s In-House Dyno Tune!

For those of you who live in Ohio, it’s a quick drive to the Tapout Tuning Shop where there’s a whole new world of possibilities. Paul is one of our Ohio customers and was lucky enough to pick up an absolutely cherry 2018 ATS-V A8 with only 10,000 miles on the clock.

Of course Paul doesn’t like to mess around, so with temporary tags still on he dropped his car off at our shop and went for the full Purple Belt Performance Package. Something interesting we found was that his ATS-V already had another tune on it, and the car was only producing 364 whp and 421 wtq on 93 octane pump gas. After flashing it back to stock, power actually improved to 391 whp and 424 wtq on 93 pump gas.

After we completed our Purple Belt Performance Package installation, Paul’s ATS-V is making 605 whp and 640 wtq on E56 fuel! We can assure you that after we added and additional 200 plus whp and wtq this V is on a completely different level. And that’s a level that anyone with an ATS-V would like to be on.

Tapout Tune of the Week!

Whether your ATS-V is bone stock, or it has already been tuned by someone else and you’re just not happy with how it’s performing, we’re here to provide the solutions you need. We’ve seen it all and understand that everyone wants something different out of their ATS-V. It’s our job to get it right for you.

Ben in Virginia had another tune in his ATS-V that he wasn’t thrilled with. We offered him our 20% Competitive Tune Discount and he made the decision to have us install a complete Purple Belt Performance Package. After the install was complete Ben couldn’t have been happier. “There were no issues on my eight hour drive home. As far as the tune, drivability has been vastly improved. The power rolls in well and the car is a completely different experience now”. Our passion is making ATS-Vs extremely powerful through incredibly safe tunes. It’s the best of both worlds and it’s just one more way we continue to under promise and over deliver.

Tapout Tune of the Week!

If you’ve never tuned or modified one of your cars we’ve got news for you: it’s badass and you’ll probably never want to stop once you get started. Do with that information what you will but know that tuning opens the floodgates for all kinds of incredible possibilities.

Kyle in Florida didn’t have any experience with modified cars before he completed his Remote Tune with us, and it’s safe to say he’ll never be going back to stock again. “All I can say is wow!! The car feels so much more lively and great to drive!”. You’re going to have so much fun driving you’ll be looking for every excuse in the book to go somewhere! There’s nothing wrong with that because after all if you’re going to own something as cool as an ATS-V, why wouldn’t you want to drive the hell out of it?

The Justins’ ATS-V on the Dyno!

From day one the Tapout Tuning shop has been full of activity. Whether one of our Performance Packages is being installed or we’re completing an in-house Dyno tune, there are no limits to what can be achieved here.

Recently, a customer drove his ATS-V in from Georgia for our Purple Belt Performance Package, in addition to the new Caddy Issues turbochargers and Tapout Stage 2 cams and springs. After completing the installation of all these killer go-fast parts we put this monster on our Dyno to see what it could do. On E87 fuel using the industry standard SAE correction factor this ATS-V put down 744 whp and 816 wtq! This is the most torque EVER produced by and LF4 engine and the area under the curve is incredible.

Take a look at the Dyno chart and notice how the torque and/or horsepower remained above 700 all the way from 4,000 to 6,800 rpm! The engine block, rotating assembly, and cylinder heads are all still stock so we do have to tip our hats to GM for providing such an excellent base to build this kind of power from. Who knows how far we will take the next ATS-V!
