Big thanks to Snail Performance

Brought the STI up to Travis today to have it retuned and can't even begin to say how happy I am with the experience.

Travis knew exactly what to do based off of what I told him, dialed the car in, and fixed my previous idle and low speed issues completely.

Car made a monstrous 561whp and 587 torque at 28psi. Very happy and will be using Travis for any tuning for the foreseeable future.

Spectacular results Matt! I also had my car tuned that same afternoon. And I cannot begin tell you how much I am overly stoked about the tune(s) that Travis did on my '08 Spec B. Two maps, 91 Oct. and E85, and holy smokes it's over-the-top fantastic!

Snail Performance is the godsend for your turbo Subie!
