Thumbs up Haddad Motorsports: Keepin' it real!

Just wanted to give a shout out to Mike and his team at Haddad Motorsports. Mike and his team keep it real!

Some of you guys know that I've always been skeptical about getting a tune on my car, especially since I've had some engine trouble with it. But, ever since la que les conte se fue a vivir a otro lugar, I figured I needed to get back in the game.

I finally decided to get high flow cats, shorty headers and a tune on my car

(To those that are going to say, “you should have gone with long tubes)



MFW I heard how long I would have to leave my car with Mike:



I was a bit hesitant because I did not have another car to use. Bless my sister and mom, however, that they were nice enough to work something out between themselves that I was able to use my mom’s car in the meantime. I decided to call up Mike and set up my appointment.

Dropped off my car Tuesday after work and was told that I could pick it up on Thursday.



Thursday came along and I called Mike to get an update and to verify that I could still pick it up on Thursday. He let me know that the tuning was almost done and that I could indeed pick it up later in the day



I was eagerly waiting until I could leave work, but when I was finally able to:



I get to Mike’s shop along with my sister. Mike tells us that he wants to take us for a test drive to make sure I was happy with the way that it was running. MFW he showed me my numbers on his dyno screen:



Guess I gained 37rwhp!

When we finally went for the ride, both my sister and I got in the car and the only two words that came out of our mouths was, “Oh sh!t!”



When someone at worked asked me if I was happy with the results:



followed by:



I couldn’t really mess around with my car due to traffic on the freeway on the ride back home. So when we got back to my home area, I let myself get a bit crazy with my car. MFW driving it:



When I finally got home:



Now, I need to go to my brother’s house and say:

Thanks guys! You know that I keep it real, so I had to show some love! I can't stress enough that they did an amazing job on my car and it was exactly what I wanted out of the tune.

@SD2011SS: I already had intake and cat back, so yes, at the time of the tune the shorties and hf cats were the only things I modded.
