Thumbs up Big thanks to Mellon Tuning

I received my first tune yesterday morning from Chris at Mellon Tuning. The car is amazing the best investment ever I should have gotten tuned a long time ago.

My car had an uneven choked off pull before and when i logged the stock rom there was lots of mid range knock.

Now the car pulls so hard and clean till 7500 RPM, it is insane. Im on my second tune and still no knock and tons of power. And his turn around service is phenominal. Incredible.

Good choice.

I got the Package 2 tuned for AMS TB, Buschur Air Filter, and Hallman BC set to 22 PSI, the datalogs on the stock ROM or tune sucked, Rich AFRs and bad timing and up to 4 counts of Knock.

Now I am tuned for the 3rd map from Chris and timing is advanced AFRs look awesome and zero knock, it is insane. The motor is way faster stronger cleaner and still less knock. Im shocked.

Every time I look at his name, I think of Melman, the old mail guy on Letterman.

You think 4 counts is bad?

I logged my stock ROM with similar mods and I was hitting 17 counts of knock. I about crapped my pants. Needless to say, Chris is working on my tune now. I can't wait
