So after 3 years and 100,000km my 2020 ED has been flawless. I was waiting for it to be out of warranty (100km in Canada) to get it tuned.
My parents live near Windsor Ontario which is right across the border from Detroit so on a trip home Friday I went to GDE to get tuned. From the time I showed up to time it was done was about 45 minutes, the guys were great to deal with and answered any questions I had.
Now for the tune itself. Pulling out of the parking lot you can immediately feel the difference. The throttle has almost zero lag and drives like it should have from the factory. The upshifts are former and sooner under light throttle and it just pulls using the added torque. The increased power is immediately noticeable too as it takes a lot less throttle to get up to speed now. I floored it a few times from about 30mph and it pulls significantly harder. Highway passing power is improved a lot.
Fuel economy seems to have improved about 1 MPG on the evic but GDE said they take out the bias of the stock programming so the actual gain could be more. I did about 600km of highway driving home and got 29.4 MPG with 3.92 gears.
Overall I'm very impressed with the driveability improvements of the tune and the added power. I can't wait to tow with it. If anybody is debating getting tuned, go do it! It's well worth it.
Will report back over the next few weeks with updates on my thoughts.
