ordered the full tune!

just ordered my full tune today! decided im going to keep my sonic! how much of a difference will the tune make? noticeable?

It depends on your motor. If you have the 1.4 it's quite noticeable and if your have the 1.8 it's mostly an increase in drivability. The auto transmission gains improvements for both engines due to the TCM tuning.

I have a 1.4 manual RS im pretty excited!

I can imagine, hopefully it comes to you quick.

you'll immediately feel an incredible increase in power.

For what the sonic is, plus the tune, you won't be disappointed. According to an LT 1.4T w/ full tune owner the RS may have responded to the tune a bit better on the butt dyno, just an FYI

wow quickest delivery time ever. usually for other people it took them weeks to get the tune and cable.
Now install tune, hold steering wheel tight and prepare yourself......

well update on the tune! I just drove the car with the tune flashed in it and let me tell you it feels like a totally different car!

 

[sonichead94]

welcome to the tune life lol. Best mod out there

 

[Eric Smit]

best for the 1.4 anyway. 1.8 owners might prefer handling mods as best bang for their buck. just so we didn't confuse any new members.

Any torque steer after the tune? Always wondered this

 

[dbarrett231]

Honestly I thought it would be worse than it is. But it only veers a little to the left that's if I'm not holding the steering wheel at all.

Torque steer is very minimal on this car, even tuned. Likely because of our equal length CV shafts.

Just bought the budget tune
