I LOVE IT... I only have the out of the box SS tune so far and she is running great! There is a rattle in the blower that kinda bugs me at RPMs below 700ish... I know Vortech has replaced blowers for this issue in the past and I am going to try raising the idle a tad and get a tune to see if that helps before I call up Vortech about it.

I have killed a M3, Mustang Cobra (late 90's ish), and a STI so far. I can't wait to get the Kinetix SSV and a good tune

From what Ive read, Vortech out of box is tuned for a stock G, so no tuning required if your completely stock. If you have mods that improve breathing, like plenums, cams, test pipes, or exhaust, it may cause you to run lean, so therefore will require some tuning.

I have my tune scheduled for this Friday... I am going to get a before / after dyno to see how much the tune does to the numbers.

My mods are in sig below... I am running between 9.6 (floored) and 14-15.7 (normal cruzing) on my AFR's so I am taking it fairly easy on 98 octane until I tune her up.

You are pig rich right now. I would bring it up to between 11.5-12.0. A/F should be okay in that range, but watch the amount of spark you throw into it.
