Just got back from SpecialtyZ and they read my ECU from the OBD port for my UpRev. Should take about a week to get it back, then I'll have it flashed and installed with some K&N drop in filters.

So far:

Tanabe Springs - mild drop
Black gloss wrapped door chrome
all led's
H&R Spacers - extended lug kind - 10mm front and 15mm rear
Sound deadened the trunk
OptiCoat paint sealant

Hopefully the tune will give me more linear power - and since i could not find a 15 with the V8 and sport package, this is about as good as its gonna get.

keep us posted man, what vinyl did you use to cover up ur chrome trimming? thanks.

Nice. I went through hell to get them to support my ECU. Did they charge you for ECU support?

Waiting to hear back as SpecialtyZ just sent my info to them today. I should get the tune back in about 5 days. The shop seemed to think there would be no issues. What type of support did you ask for? You also have v8 - and I have the standard 3.7, so maybe the support for the 8 is limited in comparison?

Don't have the charges yet - but he didn't take any $$ upfront.

Oh - I had my shop do the wrap - I think they used 3M.

Yeah it's specifically the VK56 that UpRev has trouble supporting for us...the smaller motor is probably fine.

Tune is back - but waiting on the K&N air filters to come in and the Tanabe sway bar from Japan. Will keep everyone posted to the upgrade.

BTW - anyone put upsize tires on the stock 20" sport rims? Or stagger? Like 255 or 265 on the rear or all 4 corners?

give us feedback on before and after. I have a 2012 M37x that would like to tune as well

Yeah can't wait to hear more about this!

i doubt the air filters will do much for the tune but if you do a before and after that will say for sure.

X2 on that bro, keep us posted

The air filters shipped yesterday...so maybe Monday or Tuesday of next week I can go in and have it done....

I installed K&N filters on my 2015 Q70 5.6L (Hermosa Blue). The burble is noticeably deeper, my MPG increased by 1-2 MPG, and acceleration seems better too. Love this car.

Had my tune done yesterday at SpcialtyZ. They are really a great group of guys. Another M37S came in for some exhaust work...so we chatted, as he has the tune as well.

Its only been a day but I can tell a difference. It is smoother, and pulls stronger. Not a huge difference, but for the money I'm very happy. I'll post the dyno once i can scan in the print out.

Def pulling over 300 sooner, increase in torque, limiter moved from 139, and few other tweaks.

Glad you are happy with the results man.

Oh - and i forgot to mention i splurged and dumped my Bridgestones for Michelin Pilot Super Sports...what a night and day difference. Can't wait until they are "broken in."

I went wider...255/40-20.
