    Alex was great to work with and really went the extra mile to make sure my Speed 3 is running perfectly. I had absolutely no issue's with my car during the tune. I went with Alex because he helped me in some forums on MSF. I blew my turbo seals out at 15k miles on the car before my tune. So I decided to go with an BNR S3 V2 and Stratified tuned with E85. Really impressed with Alex's load based tuning. The car feels amazing and more responsive than when it was brand new. I'm down in Alabama during the the summer with temps. up in the 90s. Alex really worked his magic on my car and I will be a return customer for my top up tune when I get a bigger intake and WMI.

    Tuned with Mike and I'm floor by how happy I am with the tune. He worked long and hard with me and tested the tunes under an array of different conditions to ensure common variables in weather wouldn't cause any issues. His turn around times were super fast and he was always available to answer questions. The tune is very smooth and feels great. Dyno numbers to come soon!

    Reached out to Stratified for a tune and Stan was the man. Purchased both the 93 and E85 tunes. He worked with me through bad weather delays, work travel, and vacation. He couldn't be more accommodating which just made the entire experience a great one. Since this is a my DD I requested a tune on the safer side and that is what I received. Car is both safe and powerful which met my expectations.

    Car pulls great in every gear and just flat out fun to drive. 2 best times of the day is my drive to and from work. Thank you Stratified.

    I had the opportunity of tuning my Speed3 with Alex, It was by far the bes tuning experience I have ever had. I live at 9500 feet above sea level and I had thought when we had started my car was never going to run right due to the lack of air. After almost 25 revisions Alex had my tune spot on.

    In the time of tuning I had not one scare about my car with knock,boost spike or CEL it was by far one of the easiest tuning experiences I have had and I have had a total of nine vehicles in my life. He was the most helpful tuner and most understandable with the weather that we were having not being able to get maps turned around to him as fast as he would like. My father had also passed away during tuning time and Alex was very quick to extend my tuning time.

    While tuning with Alex I had also purchased a Guardian Angel, let me tell you this is the cheapest insurance you can buy for your motor.It is a beautifully built product and very easy to install. I have mine set approximatly 2LBS over my boost target and it has saved me twice one of the times I had a boost line split off of my boost controller, another it just over boosted and I was able to let off the gas and slam it right back to the floor and it took off. When it turns on to prevent over boost it is not a nasty jerk its very gentle and you can see the light turn on. If you dont have one YOU SHOULD.

    I just want to say I couldn't be happier the way my car is performing right now. Before Alex sent me my first map I was not happy with my cars performance. After my second revision I was really suprised how much of a difference my car felt. It really put my head back into the seat when I slammed that pedal to the ground. I believe it was my 4th revision when the car was really beginning to perform how I always wanted to. The power was smooth, immediate, and reliable. Of all the bolt on and the money I spent this was the best bang for the money. I will be getting a top up tune from them once I let tune settle with me for a while. Alex did a great job on bringing my car to life.

    My 2012 speed 3 was tuned by Stan and I can't say anything but good things about the whole experience. The car feels truly awaken now compared to the OTS maps. I installed the OTS map that corresponded to my mods but the car needed much more fine tuning that I was as to do, enter Stratified. If you have been thinking about it just do it because these guys are total pros and they know how to deal with these cars even without having seen them all done through logs. Stan walked me through the whole process and was super patient as it was my first time getting a tune and even when it was clear my fuel quality was not up to par to where the car could take advantage of it, he still found a happy medium and a safe spot for the car to be. I was also recommended a pathway for next mods in terms of safe and reliable power since fuel quality is an issue and e85 is not available in my location.

    Residing in Connecticut means there is lots of weather changes and having a load based tune versus a boost based gives me the peace of mind of the car compensating for the difference in temperature. I must say Stan helped me for the length of the tune and even ensured the car was running safe a few days past the tune to make sure it was doing what he set it out to do. All in all professional emails, prompt timing and exchange of tunes and logs were just simple and easy. You would never know these guys are all the way in Canada, feels more like next door neighbors because of the quick replies and the nice treatment. If you have been on the fence about getting a tune don't hesitate and just do it because these cars wake up completely once they have been tuned to your specifications, it is done safely and you will learn a ton about the cars themselves. Money well spent, will definitely be back once I have my next round of mods after my wife gives birth to our first baby. Another reason why I opted to have a reliable tune for the car as this is my daily driver and soon family car.

    You'll start to see your numbers get better on the accessport as the tuner works on each revision of the files and every time the power of the car becomes more constant, holding better and even sounding better. Great experience and highly recommended.
    Thanks Stan.
