Default 2017-CX-5 Tuner
Any recommendations for a tuner that plugs into the diagnostic port? I have a 2017 but it is the new bodystyle...

The first link above is hilarious. They show the "Stage III" tuner as giving you 40hp and 38ft/lbs for the 2.5l motor. Give me a break....

Most of the Stage III tune set-ups promise a 20% increase in power. They tout "up to 40hp increase". 37hp (20%) is not that far off. Is it all lies, rubbish and false promises? No more than cold air intakes!

So basically it is "all lies, rubbish, and false promises."

Yep. No way you are getting 20% from a tuner on an NA 4 cylinder motor. There isn't that much power on the table.

Agreed, I'd be surprised if even five horsepower was on the table.

It was sarcasm, all the reviews are clearly fake.
