Default Looking for Vettethret

vettethret,

I know you got your car tuned at LAPD. Now that you've run it awhile, what do you think? Any issues? Was it worth it? I'm thinking of doing it. Just wanted your feedback first.

thanks

The tune got me about 11 rwhp and 8 rwtq. I did have an exhaust leak so the car has to go back. I havnt had the car for 1 month because of finishing my sound system and now a broken Tranny and Diff. Charlie is one of the best tuners out here. More than the power I just wanted to make sure the car was running at it's optimum performance. I personally think it's worth the $650. I say go for it.
