"Under the Curve" Gains:
41.01whp@2709RPM
81.07wtq@2665RPM

Peak Gains:
16.12whp
61.80wtq

For a more concise response let give you this as an example:
We remote tune your car, and it makes 200/275. Then you call us and setup a dyno tuning appt with us. Usually when we advance from remote to dyno tune on a car, that car will only make (in THIS case) about 206/283! THAT IS NOTHING! That is how good our tuning is, and that is why we made the additional investment in creating our own tuning proprietary tuning software and hardware. We are able to address, access and modify more portions of your ECM. When you combine that greater access with our superior experience we have better tuning than anyone else.

Understood perfectly!

And holy crap! http://www.livernoismotorsports.com/product/LPP631112

I see the dyno graph there on the product page on your site. You guys really should get that updated in this thread for others to see! Those are insane gains for stock.

I am tossing hints my wife's way constantly. She told me no more big purchases this year since I just got the car and built my new gaming PC. I am really really hoping for fathers day present!

Got my tune onto the FiST yesterday and let me tell ya all I can say is wow....this truely is the best way to spend 600 bucks on this car for sure. REALLY woke up the car in all gears at any rpm past 2 grand or so....most of the gains I can feel on the butt dyno are between about 2500 and 5....but even past 5 although it drops off it does feel like it pulls harder than stock to 6500 redline. Car is an animal compared to stock and the op review on how it feels compared to stock is very on point. Stock the car feels like it falls on its face every time you snatch a gear for a second before it begins building steam again....with the livernois 93 octane tune the car pulls HARD past 5 even to redline its improved. The car will actually break the tires loose in 2nd gear from a roll. Power comes on pretty smooth and drivability is very much like stock. I really can't see a downside....have not had it on long enough to compare mpgs but from what I've read I should see an increase of around 2 mpg if I can stay off of it. The biggest difference is in the first couple gears....the way boost is managed stock it basically neuters the car in this area especially. With this tune it slams you in the seat and on the 1-2 shift its night and day...car spins em hard going into 2nd and there is some torque steer but its not overly bad and its manageable and quite frankly should be expected with these kinds of torque gains on an otherwise stock FiST. Still waiting on my drop in k&n to arrive I will report back to see if I notice anything there but the car was tuned with that in mind. All in all I say if you can do it definately do it. I understand all the love for the ap3 because of the features it has and the fact you can run all the ots maps as well as getting pro tuned and e tuned and all that other stuff that comes with it...I had a hard time choosing but I for sure feel like I made the right choice. If you are like me and plan on keeping the car relatively stock other than the tune and maybe intake/exhaust for while until possibly going bigger turbo down the road and you just want to upload a tune that can really make a huge difference in power across the board this is definitely the tune for you. It comes with free updates for life as well so when I do get that catless dp down the road I can get a free update for that....they say as far as intake and cat back the tune can basically adjust itself to account for that additional airflow. Since boost is increased I would recommend an upgraded front mount and a dp just for the sake of more longevity and more consistency as that is something I'm looking into in the future for sure. That will also get me ready for the future turbo upgrade. You may not see a whole lot more in terms of power with these mods as this tune probably maxes out most of the potential of the stock turbo but I hear with a dp you do see decreased turbo lag and torque gains below 3500 (as if we need any more there but it is fun lol). All in all I'm super happy and I highly recommend livernois for anyone who just wants to keep the car relatively stock for a while and feel a big boost in power and torque with just a simple upload the tune and forget it type deal. Let us know if you can coax the wife into letting you get this awesome tune and keep us updated!
Will you be dynoing your car soon? Curious as to numbers after their improved tuning and double the power claims from the tune in the OP.

I'd like to do it soon I'm not sure when I'll be able to. I'm not sure about getting 40 and 70 to the wheels peak to peak maybe at certain points in the power band and not peak to peak maybe that's what theyre referring to ...either way if I can get the gain the original poster described or close to it km happy with it that's decent power in a car this size. Last night I had my first real encounter with a locals 2012 Genesis coupe 2.0 turbo its mostly stock he said he had a filter I believe and "turned up the boost a little" not sure if he meant he was tuned or what or if he is just bluffing but either way those cars are 210 HP rated from the factory and I put a hurtin on it. From a slow roll in mexico up to about 100 or so it was easily 4 car lengths or more between us and I was steady pulling....went again from a 25 roll similar outcome. He did have a passenger who was a smaller chick but still....we were both surprised at the outcome...I figured I'd pull just surprised it was that much. He said he'd drove a stock FiST and figures it would be a close one....I did too and stock for stock its basically a drivers race edge to the FiST....obviously the tune made a difference because I was walking on him fairly easily. I was proud of the little st ...its served me well so far.....1-0 haha.

They have lifetime tuning adjustments too so I'll be getting updates as I get other mods put on.
That is good as well I am looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the tune and how it compares to one of the other top tuners for our car because I see you currently run the stratified tune and its well respected too in the community from what I've read. This will be interesting...

It worked!! A good member of this forum is hooking me up with the calibrator, soon as that comes in ill be calling you guys to get it reprogrammed to my car.. Hopefully by the end of this week!

I think I am more excited about this than I was about getting the car.

Did i beat you to the punch? Very sorry buddy. I am sure something will line up for ya!
Yes and no. It was my own fault but he was selling it for a while with no interest. I negotiated a price with him Thursday evening, went to paypal, was going to pay for it then decided not to yet because I didn't even have a FiST yet. I had arrangements to pick up/buy my FiST on Saturday. I messaged him (seller of Livernois tuner) saying I'm going to hold off on paying until I get the car just in case it falls through on Saturday. Well, Saturday night when I get back home and settled (several hour drive away), it was sold.

I'm a little irritated at myself though, not anyone else. Glad you got it. Hope you enjoy it. Hardly anyone has these Livernois tunes so I'm not counting on one being for sale on the forum anytime soon. There's just not a market for these as much as the Cobb AP. I'll probably just have to pay over $600 for a new one.
