Tapout Tune of the Week!

Safety is a topic we often like to discuss. We’re not talking about seatbelts and airbags, but the safety of your LF4 engine. It’s easy to crank things up to 11 on your ATS-V but that comes at a cost. There are a million little things you might never even think of that are critical to the health and longevity of your LF4 engine.

Before we ever make a single change to your ATS-V we do an initial scan to make sure everything is functioning properly. It’s only then that we begin adding horsepower, and incrementally so to ensure that no undue strain is put on your engine. Aubrey in North Carolina was pleased with our procedure and its instilled confidence that we were doing things the right way. “Scott truly is the Most Valuable Tuner (MVT) in my eyes. His tuning capabilities and knowledge of the platform are second to none. My car went from 456 whp to 613 whp with tune and BOOSTane, thanks to Scott’s prowess and knowledge and he did it safely, mind you”. Damn straight. No matter how tempting it is to just go full send, we’re always going to get you the horsepower gains you want safely.
