I am just not impressed what so ever with their quality. When I first got my car they did the original tune. It was "ok" but nothing to write home about. I could have gotten the same results from a canned tune. Went up to HPP Racing in Lewisville and they retuned the car and it picked up 20rwhp with no changes other than the tune. I personally know of three different people that have gone there to have parts installed and have had to take the vehicle back several times to get it right. They screwed up the install so bad on one guys Steeda shifter that he got fed up and had the stock shifter put back in. I also know two people that have gone there to get their vehicle tuned post Saleen SC install. Both of those people have since taken their cars to HPP and had them retuned. Both picked up at least 50rwhp with the tune from HPP.

Good to know. I have heard a lot of good about HPP. I may give them a shot on my tune next time I come up with some dough. Thanks

Not impressive. The KB at my shop is an 8 psi kit on a bone stock GT (just k/b and clutch) and ran 7.20 in the 1/8 last night. Running the 1/4 tomorrow if it doesn't rain and I'll have videos by the end of weekend posted either way. Unbelievable tuning and power. Love that KB.

EDIT: His sct tune is what is holding him way back - with that kind of boost, he should be a lot faster.
