Dane purchased almost all the ingredients for our unmatched Brown Belt Performance Package, and did an excellent job installing everything himself. Then he drove in from Illinois, and we got to work on our DynoJet. Once again, Caddy Issues turbos delivered, making 700 plus whp from 5,300 to 6,500 rpm! Dane’s still running factory camshafts, so we weren’t yet able to unleash the full potential of these turbos. Stay tuned for more from Dane…

Charley had a good friend drive his car up from Florida to our shop in Ohio for the Blue Belt Performance Package. After installing Green high performance air filters, Gigs ported throttle body, Brisk silver racing spark plugs and Tapout resonated downpipes, we strapped the car to our DynoJet and got to work on the tuning. Peak power increased from 416 to 546 whp, with more power at every single point across the rpm range. Multiple 546 whp pulls were done back to back using E30 fuel and a custom calibration map that we created in house. We also provided a 93-octane map in case he isn’t able to locate an E85 station on his 1,118 mile trip back home.

Our team has worked tirelessly to create and develop the best possible performance parts, tuning and complete performance packages for the CT4-V Blackwing cars. We’ve made some incredible progress for a car that was originally thought to be ‘completely untunable’. Since August 2021, Tapout Tuning has been the innovator and always led the charge in this platform. Stay tuned, because there is more to come…

What takes 15 months, 11,000 street miles, 228 dyno pulls and eight track days spread over Florida, Texas and Ohio? Crushing the 700 whp barrier for the first time ever with a CT4-V Blackwing. Today we reached a new milestone with the Brown Belt Performance Package on our flagship car when it achieved peak power of 710 whp, which is 300 whp higher than stock!

We just completed another remote dyno tune, working with the killer team at Exodus Performance in Austin, Texas. This was a 2016 ATS-V with M6 transmission belonging to Ronnie. Only mods were spark plugs and downpipes, the car put down an impressive 495 whp and 499 wtq. And as always, you’ll notice that genuine Tapout tunes produce the best powerbands around!

Our good friend Alex from Washington has a very nice 2016 ATS-V that happens to be one of the first ones we ever tuned more than four years ago. He shipped his car all the way across the country and Jorge the Magnificent went through every detail of the Brown Belt Performance Package before we moved over to the dyno. The powerband looked fantastic like usual, and peaked at 689 whp! We’ll get this car detailed and headed back out to Washington as soon as possible.
