I'm guessing you were referring to me....car is strong, but just no friggin traction. When my tires were brand new and it was 100+ degrees here in Texas, I could get decent traction, but now its a joke. Totally frustrating. I ordered some new 305/25/20s and will get those put on next week, but that's not likely to do much for me.

Yeah getting cold over here as well having traction problems. Still no CEL? BTW are you having this "waste gate rattle" problem that is common with the AMS dp's? Thanks.

They offer some sort of modified press tune in which they say they are able to suppress the CEL. Something about raising the threshold of the O2 sensors.

It doesn't work well with BMS. I'm having my "tune" flashed back to stock. It may work great without BMS, which is what I was told. I never had a CEL though.
