Hex Tune

Anyone running the VF Hex Tune for the X5M?

After I drove my cousin's C7 vette this past weekend, I need to get rid of the turbo lag and get that faster feel in the seat off the line.

The Stage 2 looks impressive. Let me know what you think...http://www.vfengineering.com/x5x6-m/

What about as compared to Velos/AAW/Eurocharged?

Thanks for the assistance.

My buddy is running the Hex stage 2 tune on his X5M...I have the AA stage 2+ tune in my truck, I have driven his truck and it pretty much feels just as fast as mine...at the end of the day, every tune available for our trucks are basically the same except for the price tag

my AA stage 2+ tune feels slower than the regular stage 2 tune. I've tried emailing them, but they've stopped responding to my emails. They were responding right away before I made a purchase. After that, responses dwindled down to nothing... I would not recommend getting a tune from AA

I call them direct anytime I have a question, try calling them and ask for Andrew

AA usually has the tune on sale for about $800 for stage 2+, $800 catless downpipes...I'm happy with the power so far
