Wanted to see who all on here has had their car tuned at Livernois with upgraded turbos other than the ones they sell.

Reason being it was just estimated they would like my car for 2 weeks to get it tuned correctly with my compressor wheel upgraded turbos from 4DR.

I never expected that amount of time maybe a few days tops.

Anyone else been tuned that can let me know about how long it took?

I think you and BPD will be the first.
Might be a good option to talk to Torrie....

I'm sure Bpd will see this and chime in. See what info he has gotten so far from Livernois. I don't mind dropping my car off for a few weeks but I'm sure I won't like a few weeks of tuning labor charges.

Darreli & FirstSHO were actually the 1st two to have LMS tune their cars with the upgraded turbos.

They upgraded using the Tial Turbo Upgrades.

It took (at that time) quite a bit of time to "dial 'em in" so to speak.

I don't see either of them post up much anymore. So not sure if they'll chime in on this subject matter (or not).

Dan has made significant strides since then, so I can't imagine it taking him as long as you've been quoted.

I will find out 1st hand as I have an appt scheduled for the last week in February.

As far as I am aware, my car will be their first crack at tuning with the ATP Turbo Upgrades.

I'll letcha know :ok:

Well they just quoted me $550 so it won't be anymore than the regular tuning. I actually just asked for an appointment the week of 2/10 or 2/17. Looks like our cars might be up there at the same time.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
