It’s that time of the day again. You’re at work, it’s Friday and you’ve got one thing on your mind: Going FAST! Fast is a relative term, but you have a Tapout Tuned ATS-V and you know it runs like a bat out of hell so you’re itching to get out on the streets and make your way to Mexico…

As we have all learned, an aftermarket tune is the single best performance enhancement you can make to the ATS-V. At Tapout we determined how to precisely extract the untapped potential that hides within the LF4. Harnessing that power, and doing so safely is the topic of today’s Tapout Tune of the Week. Lee from Texas was working with us on a  Remote Tune, but right away we found that something was amiss. Through further investigation we were able to determine that someone who previously completed service on this car neglected to reconnect a vacuum hose, Lee had been driving his ATS-V for more than one year with only six pounds of boost! That issue was resolved and Lee was off to the races! “I can’t imagine how many hours Scott has spent perfecting my car. His responses were very quick, and his attitude was patient and encouraging”. Before making any changes with our tune we always make sure your ATS-V is functioning properly, ensuring the safe performance of your car before and after tuning. With a Remote Tune from Tapout you can be sure to gap you competition without a worry in the world!

Picture this. You’re minding your own business driving your ATS-V in some undisclosed location and some Mustang boys pull up on you. They’re obviously egging you on, and even though you just bough your V a few days ago you give in. You do a quick downshift and you’re off! You keep up with them at first but they start to pull away, leaving you in a cloud of defeat. You tell yourself there must be a way to keep those Stangs from showing you up again. You pray to the LF4 gods for an answer and suddenly everything becomes clear: salvation lies in a Remote Tune from Tapout!

Whether you don’t want to get stomped on again or are just looking to improve the overall performance of your ATS-V, Tapout has a variety of remote tuning options to satisfy your needs. One example is another one of our Tapout Tunes of the Week! Cody from North Dakota was looking to turn up his ATS-V’s performance because he knew there was a lot hiding in the factory ECM settings. He was happy to know whether it takes one day or several weeks, we will work with you until your Tapout Tune is perfect. “I can tell Scott is truly passionate about what he does” Cody said. And that’s true, we want everyone to be able to experience the untapped potential hiding in every ATS-V on the road. With a Remote Tune from Tapout you can be sure the next time those Ponies pull up on you, they won’t have a leg to stand on.

It’s the end of the day and you remember you need to run to the grocery store. That’s probably the last thing you wanted to do but at least you can have some fun on the way there since you’ll be driving your ATS-V. As you arrive you make sure to scope out the lot and look for the safest spot to park. You’re in an out in a flash, but despite your cautionary efforts your worst fear is realized – a giant door ding and no culprit in site. Angry and upset you make an appointment at the body shop so this can be quickly remedied. The next day you drop your ATS-V off, and maybe it wasn’t your first shop of choice but they could fix the problem quickly and it’s a load off your mind. Later that night you’re lying in bed and a sudden terror washes over you. What if those punk kids at the shop thrash your Caddy? Your Tapout Tuned ATS-V is an absolute monster on the street and in the wrong hands that could end in disaster. Luckily you remember that you had just worked with Tapout to create a Valet Mode for your V that will put all those worries to rest.

Tapout Valet Mode turns your powerhouse LF4 into a dreadfully slow pig, only allowing for 4 pounds of boost and about 250 horsepower. You can rest easy knowing any time you need to take your ATS-V in for service it will be a tame kitten that even a Prius could outrun, and who’s going to want to drive that? No one likes having a slow boring car to drive, and thanks to Valet Mode from Tapout, you can make sure that’s the case every time your ATS-V is out of your hands.

Special thanks to Alex in Washington for this excellent custom tuning idea!
