Default HMS Tune by Tad + Kooks 1 7/8 LT's = 370hp/370tq

Just got my GTO back from Haddad Motorsports... I can't wipe the smile from my face when I drive my car now.

Dynoe'd in at 370/370 which is pretty damn good considering I have an Auto and no other mods save for the K&N FIPK which is marginal at best. Tad is a freakin' badass tuner and I can't say enough about the quality of workmanship and level of customer service @ Haddad.

Now if I could only get traction... the 1-2 shift lights 'em up everytime

Thanks again guys

i do like that place i always have good luck there. never had Tad do a tune on my car but ive gone other places for tunes and have it has cost me alot of time to get there **** fix after words. if anyone needs a tune i can say i have 100% trust in that place with my car and i hate shops. i do my own work most of the time they now this and they still help me out its not all about money with them they love cars like we do so give them a try guys

my car pick up 29rwhp after a tune when it was all motor
with the turbos it made 694 on a mostly stock bottom end and its still running strong havent killed it yet

Agreed on the "its not all about money.." part... so true.

i talk to him still he is doing very well at his new job but the man has no time which is a shame he has alway tuned my car. love his work, but with work and family he has no time which sucks because ive been looking for a new tuner with no luck
ive tryed other shops and had bad luck so im kind of screwed until some can step up might have to try Tad but im picky
i should just break down and start doing it my self ill have to figer it out some time. ill just take my time.
