I will say if anyone is wondering about customer service from them, don't. He was busy as hell today but still took the time to call my installer, get the final tune, set up a new tune, email the tune, and help me install it (which after doing it I felt like a boob

). A+ on their dedication to their product and standing behind it.

Good to hear you are getting your tune sorted out, and that the car feels more responsive. I am so jelous that you are able to drive it right now I have to wait untill spring. I had the same issue with what I thought to be a hot start issue and when I had my car dyno tuned the tuner had told me that it is to be expected with blow off valves that you may have to give a shot of gas when starting the car. I do not know if there is any truth to that as this is the first car I have driven with a turbo and bov's. I totally agree with the customer service part of things, I never expected near the support I have received from Marc and Rick!

that makes no sense.... i have a turbo car that i have put bov's on, taken them off, tuned, and modded in every which way, and blow of valves have nothing to do with starting the car. the only reason a bov can possibly make a car die is if the BOV is venting atmosphericly and your car is expecting that air that was just vented to be in the IC piping when the butterfly opens back up and its not. therefor your car is somewhat starved for air at that moment. this creates a temporary rich condition which can cause your car to stumble either between shifts or when going back to idle. BOV's play no part in the car starting tho.
