Talking Doug at Top Speed

Well I have had the pleasure of meeting with Doug from Top Speed in Georgia. He is a personal friend of Ciciosti and Cicio flew him all the way up to North Dakota to do some tuning on our rag tag crew of subarus up here.

First thing I have to say is Doug is a kick *** guy, and he really knows what he's talking about. He doesn't have a high and mighty attitude and answers even the most noob questions with welcoming cander. All we could do was road tunes, as we don't have an AWD dyno here in the sticks.

Doug did a stage 2 tune on my 08 STI. The tune was with a P & L CAI, Invidia catted DP, and P & L Signature Series Catback exhaust(dual melon shooter). The feel of the car is spot on and runs like a champ. I'm hitting 19 psi and it tappers to about 14.5 if im reading it currectly. Doug said we could have pushed it more, but due to the horrible gas up here I would need to run meth, and to get optimal gains he said I should switch out the header and uppipe...so that means I have to save up for when he comes up next time.

So all in all great experience and I highly recommend Top Speed if your in the Georgia area, or if you want someone to come in to your piddly town and do a professional job I would recommend giving Top Speed a call.

I'm heading up there on the 2nd and 3rd! It'll be my first time getting tuned with them. But so far they have great customer service. Glad you had a good time!

I sure will. It will probably be up in the power bragging section, or I may make a member's journal. Expect to see it by the 4th or 5th.

You must have caught him on a good day. Good luck with any after-the-fact support. My initial experience was ok but my second interaction was what drove me over the edge to start doing my own tuning.
