I have to place the entire order at once, so they will all be ordered after the GB closes. I would expect about a week or so turn around time on them, but keep in mind you are getting over $350 off the retail price, so just have a little patience :)

You guys will love this new cal, we've had it on our cruze 1.4t for a couple months now testing it, and its great.

So this is a little off topic but couldn't find the answer when I searched. Is there any additional benefit going with a CAI once I have the tune. I keep seeing talk on throttle response and turbo sound, but wasn't sure of the actual HP gains.

As far as sound goes, I like the car cause its quiet, and thats coming from owning a Mazdaspeed 3 with CAI. The road noise drove me crazy on long trips.

Thanks
From what I've read the intake greatly improves throttle response and increases the 'intake and turbo noise' you hear the 'woosh' more. I don't think there are any gains to HP/TQ worth mentioning on our little engines, but I want one specifically for the improved throttle response.

If you want it quiet...dont get the CAI. You'll listen to the turbo almost your whole drive.

just my opinion
Just purchased mine. 3 to go people!!!

On another note, I chose not to get the cable. Why am I being charged $12 for shipping?? What will be shipped to me?

I was under the impression the tune file could be sent by email.

-Sorry for my ignorance
I'm wondering the same...why would we get charged shipping when nothing is going to be shipped when opting out of getting the cable? Is this an error on the website?

I went ahead & placed my order anyways. #25 for the 2013 Buick Encore.
Hey [email protected],

What shipper will you guys use to ship to canada for the cable?

I'm order #26.

If the money is there, there will be no other offer close to this kind of deal. I was semi iffy on the other deal we had, but this one I couldn't possibly let down.

I just want to be sure that there isn't something else I'd rather spend the $400 on. I may wait until I have a new exhaust and after I've had the car a while longer. It is a great deal though.

Why is shipping being charged for those of us that arent buying the cable?

Eh, not really. It will be slightly noticeable in low end acceleration (I mean right when you put the peddle down), and it will give the engine better air flow. I'd just drop a K&N filter and do the snorkel delete. Same benefits.
Bought mine...currently at 27 sold...hopefully 35 brings further discounts...
Picked mine up also.
Jerry @ BNR, why am I being charged shipping if I opted out of getting the cable?
Purchased! Such a good deal.

Just in time too, looks like 2 hours left.

Tune really is step 1... you need a tune to take advantage of any other performance mods.

I wonder how much my gains will be with the tune since i have a catless dp, catted midpipe, borla cb and k&n sri? Be kinda curious to get it on the dyno. How many tunes actually sold?
I was 31.. not sure if there are any after me.

A lot more, this car seems to run slower 1/4 times with mods than stock until you tune it.
