    I might have used the money and bought a lottery ticket and won millions of dollars. Nuke, you made me not a millionaire!

    Nah. I would probably just have a big pile of some other types of junk. Lol.

    I was blaming Nuke for not being a millionaire :)

    No Nuke your my boy. Nothing but good things from Nuke, except stealing all my Rehabs

    Get an opensource tune from one of our vendor members. Save yourself a bunch of $$ and provide income for a brother.

    See what I keep telling you, you should charge more. because of it they're left with too much money to spend on making more power with more parts. Show them what you're really worth and charge the appropriate fees, maybe then they'll stop complaining lmao

    The new fees will help cover the air you're breathing around Nuke, kinda like those pure flavored oxygen bar stations at mall. Just be sure to indicate which flavor you'd prefer. Or you could just end up with foul gas.

    first off i wanna say thanks for this thread, I picked up a 2007 stage 2 wrx w/accessport and protune from out of state and really want to get the tune checked out and/or tweaked to my preferences.
    and i'd like to get in on the pre-Musashi comment pricing please (what's up OG? :p) Is there a way of doing a diagnostic run with an existing protune considering I want to keep using my v2 AP for map switching?

    Where is the best place to buy a Cobb AP? How do I load "Stage 1" onto my car?

    I would suggest Amazon.com. I think it loads in the USB port of your head unit.... or is it bluetooth? I forget. But once it is hooked up you will get like 100+ WHP.

    Make sure to tune on race gas (leaded) and do 2nd gear pulls

    It's an App for the iPhone. It only works with the newest iPhone. The iPhone 4sX.234 ..... I know I am camping outside the Apple Store for it.

    But not quite as cool of a mod as the Robin Charger.
