Tapout Tune of the Week!

You wouldn’t buy a car with driving it first right? So why would you get your ATS-V tuned by someone without talking to them first? We want you to feel confident about our abilities as your tuner so please, never hesitate to give us a call or shoot us an email at Sales@TapoutTuning.com and we will be happy to answer all the questions you have.

Glenn and Kelli in Georgia had recently purchase an ATS-V and heard about Tapout but wanted to gather more information before making any decisions. “We reached out to Scott and he has walked us through everything and made suggestions for the best route to go on a build. He did all of this before we even bought a remote tune from Tapout. Scott now has the base tune on the car waiting on us to do our mods and it is incredible!” We won’t be happy with your tune until you are, so give us all the questions you’ve got. We’re here and ready to answer.

Tapout Tuning is Two Years Old!

When we started this company we promised to do whatever was required to make ATS-Vs fast.  We have already helped to put eleven ATS-Vs into the tens so far, and there will be many more to come.  And these aren’t isolated cases with our own personal or in-house cars, and not just with specific sets of modifications either.

We are committed to working with the aftermarket to bring hardcore products to our little niche.  Tapout attended last year’s SEMA show in force. We are on the dyno every week testing and researching all things LF4.  Already we have introduced high duration camshafts and stronger valvesprings.  Ported throttle bodies.  Modified turbochargers.  High stall torque converters.  Carbon fiber driveshafts.  And this is only the beginning.  We are going to legitimately put some ATS-Vs into the nines this year, at full weight.  And not just our flagship car.  Some of yours too!

We vowed to solve hardware, software and tuning issues that no one else could fix.  We were first to show this community how we can easily bleed our own intercoolers, and eventually introduced a convenient DIY kit.  We were first to spec properly gapped spark plugs to this market and let everyone know how critical it is to utilize dielectric grease during the installation.  We identified and circumvented the infamous startup boost limiting timer.  We even found a way to carry the ZL1’s eLSD drag racing CCM calibration over to ATS-Vs.  There is still much more to do, and we are working diligently to resolve these issues for our community.

We sponsor and show up strong at all the big Cadillac racing events and are proud to support first class organizations like the Cadillac V-Club.  We work hard to help each other and do big things to benefit our small community.  We are proud to have only the best people on our team.  We offer strong discounts to active military, veterans and first responders.  And of course we have our tremendously popular ‘Shitty Tune Discount’, available to those of you who aren’t happy with another brand of tune.

The Tapout Takeover is in full force.  If you’re interested in joining our team, email us at Sales@TapoutTuning.com with your goals and plans.

Tapout Tune of the Week!

Much like chaos never sleeps, we really don’t either. It’s important to us that we are able to make the tune modifications you need day and night. That way you can be back on the road kickin’ ass and takin’ names with all the new mods you’re running.

One of our favorite things is working with customer who have been driving their ATS-V stock for quite some time and decide they’re finally ready for a tune. Billy in Texas had owned his ATS-V for a couple years when he heard about Tapout and decided the time was right. We worked with Billy to tune his car remotely and were also fortunate enough to get a chance to work with him in person. “He [Scott] showed up at a track day near me and proceeded to spend the whole day refining my tune and the tunes of half a dozen other racers, in between drag runs”. We’re drag racers at heart, and anytime we can be there on the track to help others out you better believe we’re going to do it!

Tapout Now Offering Carbon Fiber Driveshafts!

You know what’s cool? Carbon Fiber. You know what’s cooler? Carbon Fiber Driveshafts from Tapout! Over the past several months we have been working with The Driveshaft Shop to develop a premium carbon fiber driveshaft that is both lighter than stock and more torsional than the factory steel driveshaft.

We decided to offer a carbon fiber driveshaft over the alternative of aluminum as it will support higher speeds for both M6 and A8 ATS-V’s; up to 200 mph! And because carbon fiber tubes are more torsional than aluminum they can twist more under load. This allows for smoother transfer of power at launch and between shifts. Better yet, these carbon fiber driveshafts are easily capable of supporting upwards of 1,000 horsepower. We love pushing this platform further and we couldn’t be happier to have a driveshaft that can support our goals!

Gigs Performance Ported Throttle Body from Tapout!

Do you want a way to easily add more power to your ATS-V that requires no additional tuning? You bet you do, because who wouldn’t want that? That’s why Tapout Tuning is happy to announce that we will be offering the Gigs Performance Ported Throttle Body!

We dyno tested this ported throttle body and saw gains of 10 to 15 whp across most of the powerband. We would expect to see even bigger gains on higher boost/horsepower applications. And it gets better; this throttle body only costs about half as much as an intake, produces more power and requires no additional tuning!

The first production run will begin shipping by April 28th, 2020 on a first come, first serve basis.
