Glad you made such great gains, even going from a high flow catted DP to mine. The video is my GP with the MarioKart DP and stock exhaust

Check with MarioKart. I had a tune and switched to Manic. It was worth it. Didn't read the entire thread but Mario has a ceramic coated DP as well. It's pretty sweet.

I've had enough different tunes. started with a piggyback (forgot the brand), then AP, RMW, now DNA. I've got over 2g in different tuning devices. I'm staying where I'm at. I suppose I could just swap over to the cat at emission time...

Don't know if this makes any difference, but Mario was able to save and email my old tune to me...

We did save that old expensive tune. You can put it on a thumb drive, and display it on the fireplace. I don't see you going back to it any time soon. You seemed much happier that night we did some quick testing mQuebed Manic Tuning Dealer
