Yea, bad news sadly

Looks like the tune won't work for me. he's checking to see if they've cracked any others or found any alternatives, but nothing so far.

Oh well. We'll find a way someday.

I think they made a mistake in thinking that they tuned a non-TU car.

I literally just wrote what I heard from them, I don't really get what's funny about it. I guess people just have different kinds go humor, go figure lol

Maybe so. I'll check in with them again, but from what I heard they tuned both a TU and non-TU car.

BlackGT, I appreciate that your atleast looking into a tuning option, I know I was a little harsh on the turbo upgrade but without real tuning I didn't see a point in the upgrade and the price is ummmm ridiculous. But nonetheless I appreciate the effort.

not a problem brother, happy to help!

I agree it is a bit costly, I'm still waiting for 747flyboy and his Dyno results on the Alpina B7 turbos.

I'll still keep looking around.

I'm going to head to the dyno sometime too as well.
