JB2H(review) installed yesterday

I finally got my tuner installed after collecting dust here for 2 weeks cause of my radio issues.

1) The install wasn't too bad, patience is key. Terry was even nice enough to help us out with questions over the phone during the install. Kudos on the customer service.

2) So after installing the moment of truth awaited. I drove a good 15 miles patiently and wasn't feeling much of a difference. Car feels same cruising at 2k-3k. I finally punched it from 60 and OOOOOOmph!!!! The difference is night and day with this car. It pulls so dam hard at any point in the power band its ridiculous. I finally get thrown back like I have always wanted. Also for all those who have step and have a slight time going from 1st to 2nd(from a stop), this became virtually eliminated with the tune.

3) Overall, I couldn't be happier, and for those that are stock, no matter what piggyback you go with, make sure it’s your first mod. You won’t regret it Props, Props, and more Props to terry. Best investment for 400 smackaroos

**I also went out on the prowl later at night trying to play(3 passengers). Dusted a g35, a couple Z's. And later that night a carrera 4s. Also is it normal that I get 13mpg?? Shouldn’t it be better?

First off, Congrats! The gas mileage you are seeing is probably because you were pushing it hard and racing.

Once again, congrats and be safe out there....

Punching it a lot will do that for sure.....

Reset your MPG calculator and drive like a grandma for a day or so, you will see them go up.....
