Hey guys,

I have a few questions for all of you:
- How many daily drivers do we have?
- Which tune are you running?
- How long have you been running said tune?
- Any issues arise during that time?

I'm not having any issues myself, I'm a daily driver with COBB OTS stg II.
I've been running it for about 3 months. I was running the MAPerformance Stg I V220. After I updated my AP firmware to V400 and remained on the MAP Stg I V220 tune, upon startup the car would throw a P061A code for Internal Control Module Torque Performance. I tried resetting ECU and KAM, and again upon startup immediately the DTC returns. So it didn't seem to affect the way it drove, but I didn't like knowing that I had a DTC tripped. So I switched to OTS Stg II V400 and voila! DTC vanished, does not return. I had the MAP Stg I on my car for about 6k until the firmware upgrade, and currently I'm running COBB OTS Stg II.

As it sits, she has ~29k on her.
Will be pulling the plugs on Friday to swap in some ITV22s, should be interesting to see how sh*tty CA 91oct affects our plugs.
Well, that, and the fact that I waited until about 27k to install an OCC [shameful]

Hey there! Got a daily driver here. I've been running on a custom 91 octane tune from Randy @ Mountune when I had only about 300-400 miles on my ride. Put a OCC in around 700 miles or so, and I'm already at about 7200 or so miles. I wouldn't say I had initial problems, but I noticed every now and then sometimes at idle, it'll dip a bit lower than usual for a second or two, but otherwise everything seems to be working fine for me. As for DTC error codes, I actually hadn't check my AP for these. I did, however, perform the firmware update for my AP a week or two ago.

2014 car bought brand new in March of 2014. 45,500 miles currently on the vehicle catch can installed at 40,000. I have the hybrid x37 turbo and no issues with the car been about 5,000 miles on the car now. I run 91 fuel, e30, and currently working on a 100 octane fuel. Also if you want more local info we have a facebook page called San Diego ST Owners Group.

Hi boocake! How's Randy's tune compare to the OTS maps in your opinion?

Thanks, Pete! I'm on that page too, just thought I would try this route :) Who did you get your x37 from? I've seriously been considering upgrading in the nearish future. I REALLY want that top end power!

Hey LaserWhisperer, sorry for the delayed response! Honestly, I haven't tried any of the OTS maps. I had Randy's tune applied when I got my AP and had some work done at Mountune when I was over there back in August (springs, RMM, short shift) and it's been pretty peppy. Aside from the tune, I'm essentially stock with a K&N drop in panel filter. I'm pretty sure upgrading my intercooler would probably be beneficial for me in the long run.
