Just DO IT, turn that AFM OFF !

Did my exhaust plus tuner this morning and it's so much better with out the 4 banger vibration before you hit it.

I change cars like every two or three years so I'm really not worried about my powertrain warranty so why not and enjoy the car more for what it should be.

I'm really glad I got the LS3 to avoid this problem. I wasn't even aware auto's had this issue until reading this site.

I'm about to purchase the tuner/tune from Ted. It feels like Christmas morning. I haven't seen anyone that had regrets with the tune for the L99. I will update everyone with how my experience has gone.

I travel 15mi each way back and forth to work. In three days I would go through a tank of Gas. My drive is primarily highway with a bit of stop and go traffic.

I had Ted tune it, added headers and a CAI and I go through a tank of Gas in a week and a half, which includes driving it HARD on the weekends and beating on it once in awhile on my drive home or to work. I was literally shocked.
