I am not even sure where to begin. I have a 2013 foucs st with all the fun goodies, however it was missing something and it was a killer tune! All through the process of dealing with Alex during the tuning stages it was like my car was getting better and better. There was never a oh crap moment where I was concerned that something was wrong with my car/tune. Alex made my car a absolute beast and I could not be happier. I had taken my car to a dyno day shop will remain nameless but they did not allow for any time in between 3 4th gear pulls and my intake temps were literally off the charts and they did not seem to care (maybe it was because it was the first time they saw how a car should be tuned) non the less again no drama car still was safe with how the tune was built. I feel that if you are looking for a top tier tune that if safe and puts the power down better than anything you have ever experienced you need to let the stratified team take care of it. I cant say enough good things about the communication, the updates, and the stellar customer service. I will forever be a Stratified customer and will encourage anyone that owns a car that they tune to go through them. Thank you again!

I HAD THE BEST TIME TUNING WITH ALEX THESE GUYS KNOW THERE SHIT! ANY QUESTION I HAD THEY ANSWERED HE CAME ME SOME SERIOUS POWER GAINS AND I WOULD REC TO EVERYONE WELL WORTH THE MONEY SPENT! THANKS GUYS IM VERY HAPPY WITH THE TURN OUT! I WILL BE BACK FOR MORE SOON!

My car is my daily driver, and my pride an joy. I asked for a safe reliable tune for daily driving and track days with a flat torque curve and linear response, and Stan and the Stratified team delivered just that. They did an outstanding job, and were incredibly thorough and paid close attention to detail throughout the entire process. They were also very understanding of some circumstances outside of my control that came up, and worked with my schedule, putting the tune on hold for a bit. In the end, I could not be any happier with the results. I would not hesitate to use them again for any future tuning needs, and would recommend them to anyone else who needs a professional tune. In fact, I would not trust anyone else but Stratified to tune my car.

At first I started off with an OTS+ tune and I was definitely satisfied. About a month after using the OTS+ tune I decided to go with a custom e-Tune, for the added safety and power, since I do not plan on a big turbo for my Focus ST and have all mods completed (aside from a downpipe). The feedback from my tuner (Steven) was fantastic and he was willing to answer any and all questions. The power delivery, drivability, and overall quality of a Stratified OTS+ and custom e-tune are fantastic. Originally, I chose to go with Stratified thanks to a few friends in my local car club and for the amazing article Alex and the team write up on their blog site. Stratified automotive employees are engineers, professionals, car nerds through and through and extremely knowledgeable. I would trust them with any vehicles I own in the future.

I have a gen2 speed3… I initially upgraded the fuel pump and intake (JBR powerpath CAI), got a Cobb AccessPort and tried tuning myself… it’s a freaking learning curve and the forums, once you get past the “mine is bigger than yours” stuff that’s quite funny at times, are very informative… I learned a lot and my custom tune seemed OK but it wasn’t perfect and I was sick of spending my time reading and adjusting and getting nowhere fast… I got a couple more upgrades and late last year finally decided to let the pros do it and got the Stratified Flash tune… powerwise, it seemed very similar to my tune, but when I looked at the logs more closely, I had no doubt it was safer for the engine… now I wanted more power (which was always the intent even before purchasing the car)… within 3 months, I contacted Alex at Stratified to upgrade my car and he helped me choose the parts that would best get me to my power goals (GTX2867, Cobb DP, JBR 3.5 intake, ETS top mount, Synapse BPV, and other stuff)… I saw Jesus the weekend I did the parts install…

I got 2 tunes (93 octane and e25)… I loaded the first map for the 93 tune just after the install, went for a drive, and was very underwhelmed… don’t worry, this is by design because Alex can’t start being more aggressive with the tune until you send him the first logs, so be patient (and make sure you have no boost leaks)… 6 revisions later, the car feels awesome and pulls hard (@20-21psi)… we started the e25 tune cause I got a station less than 4 miles away… same thing, the initial map is pretty conservative and you won’t feel much difference… 4 revisions later…. holy crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!... at @24psi, those 3-4 extra psi sure make a difference!...

The car is basically like jekyll and hyde now… if not for the hood scoop, it would be a sleeper... a little louder than stock but not at all obnoxious or over-the-top and just as "comfortable" at stock… the GTX2867 spools a little later than the K04, but IMO this actually makes the car more drivable on the street (and pulls basically all the way to redline when going WOT)…

Alex was very helpful and answered all my questions and any concerns I had… I can’t recommend Stratified Tuning enough for the results they’ve produced and, since I’ve entered the rabbit hole, if I decide to go bigger (a good possibility), they’ll be the ones tuning the car and who I’ll ask regarding parts I need… if $$$ is not an issue and you’re still on the fence, what the hell are you waiting for?... you won’t regret it… and you too have a good chance of seeing Jesus just like me ;-)

Will not get my car tuned anywhere but with Stratified. Great customer service, very responsive and a great tune. Thank you guys.
