Once I’m out of warranty (soon) I’ll probably get this. I at least want an IIDTool. ---

Couple minor updates. I added a JL sub since the factory system was severely lacking. I also put Nokkians on for Winter and plastidipped the wheels. Once I figure out the best option, a tune will be next. ---

That’s pretty cool. I drove mine over the corner of a snowbank in my driveway to get the mail without exiting the car. It was also pretty exhilarating. ---

Any longer-term update on the reliability of that tune? 🧐 ---

So far, so good. You’ve driven in it so you know what it feels like. I’d so it doesn’t deliver any of the claimed MPG gains. As far as reliability, there’s nothing (negative) to report and I have at least 10k miles since the tune. ---

🤔🤩🙉 > UPDATE: I ended up emailing VelocityAP directly to ask them if the 2018+ V8 SC tune resulted in the SVR burbles. The response I got was that “If you request burbles when you submit your original file for modification we can add them for you. The exact sound won’t be the same, as the SVR has a louder exhaust, but we can induce them in the same way.” [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/new-addition-diesel-round-2/274490.md?page=2)
