Still no tuner options??

I wonder why no tuners have been made available yet. I've seen on this forum that some have tried the bully dog with no success. Is this something we can expect in the future?? I think the y pipe, exhaust, intake and tuner would do this car some justice.

You pose some good questions but step back and think about what this car is. Really not a candidate for being a "boy racer" ride. Wrong tranny which I really doubt could withstand too much more power. All that said, I am delighted with the style and existing power output which still allows mpg in the 30s when desired.

Uprev told me few weeks ago that they're working on cracking the program and they should have a tune at some point.

To believe a "tuner" alone can yield 30-50 hp requires one to believe in Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairey, and the Easter Bunny...and to have personally seen Big Foot and the Loch Ness Monster.

I'm pretty sure he was responding to what I said about a programmer with an intake and exhaust would really be a nice wake me up for this car.

OK...do you believe a person can get an additional 30-50 hp with a programmer, intake and exhaust?

Wait and you believe a person can't depending on the vehicle? Seems like instead of offering insight on the topic you've had multiple failed attempts at trying to be a smart ***
