v1 review

BBM message:
Quick drive on V1… feels quicker off the line from a stand still. That makes me happy. Feels like it wants to pull harder in 4th… and 5th felt like it kept going forever!! I may have done 115 on the freeway uphill.

Hi Ed,

Oh Ed, you hit a home run with these tweaks to my V5A!! When i drive in automatic, it stays in gear longer before shifting gears. The gas pedal/response from the car is amazing. I feel like the transmission isn't so quick to get to 5th gear.

An XRT Journey
By Staci Towne

This journey all started when I saw a supercharged white Legacy 3.6R; I have a need to be different… so, I decided I wanted to SC my Leggy as well, isn't imitation the sincerest form of flattery? Wow, I decided to travel down an expensive road… now that we've covered my need to go fast, to stand out from the crowd, and the ability to spend a ton of money really well, that's when Ed entered my life.

Ed has shown me that he's extremely knowledgeable when it comes to the H6 motor and 5EATs. He's taken my intake and catback exhaust and made it work better for the car. He's tweaked the 5EAT in such a way that the car isn't in such a hurry to shift through to 5th gear. Here's what I mean, Ed had sent me V5a for my car; I loaded it up and started driving to my friend's house. When I left the red light, I could notice the car staying in gear longer than usual, which I think is nice, higher revs, before shifting into a higher gear. The throttle response is amazing under foot. I can press down a little and there's a responsive downshift in gears when I ask for it. I'm currently waiting for my Raptor headers to ship so I can get that installed and ready for the Raptor SC to ship also. Ed is going to tune my 3.6R all the way to completion of this project. And I'll be honest, he's my tuner for life, sorry Ed, you're stuck with me!!

I started this project as a total noob. I had no idea how to 'flash' my ECU on my car, Ed walked me through the first couple of times. Ed has the patience of a saint when it comes to me as a client. My life doesn't always let me go out and mess around with my car in a timely manner, so Ed has to wait for me… a lot. I'm so grateful for this. He also pushes me when I need it, I'm grateful for this also.

There is no doubt in my mind that Ed is a top-notch tuner and the only tuner that will touch my #LeadFootLegacy. I'm extremely happy to be a part of the XRT family.
