THANK YOU!


Just a place for customers to post their reviews!

I recently finished with my CA e-tunes with Adam and just wanted to post a quick review.

I've ran a few tunes before, OTS Stage 1(Oct '13), Randy's Bespoke(Aug '14) and OTS Stage 3(Feb '15) but I was looking to get more power out of my current setup. I ended up deciding on getting the lifetime tune with Adam@MAPerformance.

Shot him an email, paid, shot him a couple of current logs and we were off and rolling. That was on July 28th. By August 4th, I was on my 8th and final 91 revision! Loved this tune. More power everywhere. Before we started I wasn't sure if I would see much of a jump from the OTS but I'm sure now I also had an e30 tune done all I can say is I really LOVE e30! The car really moves now! Big difference from the 91 octane and Stage 3 tunes. Worlds apart from the Randy's Bespoke tune and Stage 1.

Just so everyone knows, Adam is awesome to work with. He was patient and seems to really be into his work. I don't know if I just got lucky, but a lot of the times I sent a log in I got a new revision in an hour or two. Customer service and results wise, I couldn't be happier. I owe Adam a beer(s)!

I just finished up my E-30 tune with Adam from MAP and I really could not say enough, the tune is amazing!

We started with a 91 octane tune and it was such an improvement over the OTS map, power was improved everywhere.
Drivability is much improved as well, I use to avoid running the a/c because of the reduction in power at low rpm's, his tune completely eliminated that.

The E-30 tune is on another level, there is so much more power, the way the car builds boost with both tunes is incredible. I did have him make me another map slot for
the canyons that had lower boost levels so I wouldn't be blowing the tires off out of every corner.

The tune is absolutely solid! no surging or funny little issues that I did have with a previous tuner. Adam responds to Emails extremely quick and answered all my dumb questions in detail and made sure I was happy with the way the car felt.

I have found out the hard way that there is much more to a tune than wide open throttle pulls, everyday drivability is just as important if not more so.
With this tune in everyday driving like cruising on the freeway at 65mph and dipping into the throttle to pass someone there there is way more power, the car just accelerates.

I had chalked up the lack of bottom end to our little 1.6L but I truly don't feel that way anymore, If you are looking for a top end screamer this still isn't the magic trick as we are limited to our baby turbo. Overall I am extremely satisfied with the way the car feels.


I really can't say enough on the service Adam provided and his timely response, I highly recommend him.

[MENTION=3178]maperformance[/MENTION] I may be getting on a dyno in the near future, guessing it would be good to run datalogs on those pulls for future tuning use?

I have Adam's 93 Oct tune on my otherwise stock FiST. It is absolutely fantastic. The low end torque increase makes the FiST even more fun to drive. I had the Cobb stage 1 tune prior, and the MAP tune is noticeable better. I went back to the stock tune for a week, then retuned with the MAP tune yesterday, and again I was blown away.

I am working on a 93 OCT custom tune with Adam and wow what a difference compared to my previous tune, like everyone else said, Adam is extremely helpful and responsive in revisions. Highly recommended to anyone looking for an custom tune, can't beat unlimited revisions.

I offer live dyno tuning if you are going to be doing more than 3 pulls. If not, we can finalize it on some street pulls.

I am currently in the process of tuning with Adam with my GTX 2863 turbo'd fiST. I am no stranger to the e-tune process and had multiple octane tunes on the stock turbo with another vendor. When I went BT I contacted the previous tuner and began the process with him. After close to 10 weeks of very very slow response with revisions and less than expected results I just walked away and hired Adam. I knew right away I made the right choice! Adam is quite knowledgeable, pleasant to deal with, ready to explain anything in the process, willing to put in the time to take your car to it's full performance potential, and best of all very quick to respond with analysis and revisions to the maps he sends out. There have been days that I received and logged on more than one revision. I am confident that any of you guys that need e-tuning will have a similar experience with Adam and I look forward to what I know will be great results on my car.

I may just have to see how much he'd charge me for the dyno time...

Drop me a message with the shop name, I know a lot of shops out in NC.

Currently in the process of getting my car tuned by Adam. You can always expect a new revision within 24 hours no matter how busy he is and that's what I like. He makes every customer a priority. The lifetime tune is the best deal on the market and the results can't be beat. I would recommend getting a tune from Adam to any body.

^^^ This... again. lol

I'm sure you will see many many more rantings and ravings over Adams tuning ability and customer service in the near future. I'm on my Version 6 tune and throughtout the process Adam has been very helpful as well as being very expedient on getting back to me on a multitude of emails with questions and observations. THIS is how it's supposed to be done folks.

Sent you a pm, but I wouldn't work with another tuner just a heads up. I can't share these secrets! LOL
