DMC1.4LTurbo

Discussion Starter · Oct 1, 2014

Hello, I just purchased my first cruze, a '12 eco turbo with the 6 speed MT. I can't wait to start tuning it. I know its an eco and billed as a gas sipper but I think that with the lighter weight and an ECU Tune it can be a fun 4 banger.

I've bee reading on here about the different tuning options around and the vtunerperformanc tune is the one I'm leaning towards. Any suggestions? Thanks

Congrats. The Eco is definitely a quick fun car while still being fuel efficient. A tune and a few other things (spark plugs, resonator delete, tire pressure, intake, etc) can be found all over to make it for fun and FE!

- Agreed - felt the same regarding the ECO I had. Fun, efficient, toss able and a pretty refined car.

My favorite thing about the Eco is that it doesn't "feel" like the cheapy fuel economy special like other brand's cars do (Focus SFE, Civic HF).
