Anyone have any issues with their tuned X?

I figured I'd ask this question being I'm a little iffy on the reliability part of a tuned X compared to a stock X. This is probably due to the fact that I used to own a 02 wrx did every mod imaginable to the beast, and upon about my 4th tune(because of upgraded mods) I had blown a coil pack. This was actually pretty scary because the tuner had not known it was a coil pack until a lengthy diagnostic, but we had both thought one of the cylinders had seen its last of its days because of no response from one of the cylinders.

Anyways has anyone had any reliability issues, or any issues at all after tuning their X?

Typically you will not see a problem so long as you have a professional tune your car using the proper equipment (logging software, wb02).

Put it this way.....if people were having trouble, there would be threads cluttering this place! Everyone loves to complain about any little thing, so you can imagine what would happen with the major things.... lol!!!

With all basic bolt-ons and a tune done by a reputable shop, there shouldn't be any issues.
