Mitch McKee - Tuning Master on Power, Safety, Hybrids, Hackers, Drug Dealers

Mitch McKee knows everything about tuning engines. McLarens, Porsche, Ferraris, GT-Rs, you name it, he can make them go faster and run better. Porsche hired Mitch to do the development tuning on the new 911 Hybrid. On this episode Mitch explains when to run race gas to protect your engine; how tuning hybrids might work; the weirdest jobs he's had; why he only works on land-based vehicles; the surprising truth about Porsche GT3s; how a cybersecurity law effects tuners like him; and more! Recorded July 15, 2024When it comes to engine tuning, Mitch McKee knows it. He spent years working for Vivid racing and COBB before opening his own company, M Engineering. They write software (and build hardware) upgrades for high-dollar exotics like McLaren, Porsche, and Lamborghini. As you'll learn from the show, they don't do simple reflashes or throttle maps, either. They're so good, OEMs hire them to prevent cheating in racing team ECUs. https://www.m-engineering.us/ Head to https://www.FACTOR MEALS.com/tire and use code tire50 to get 50% off your first box plus 20% off your nextmonth while your subscription is active! Today get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to https://www.joindeleteme.com/TIRE and use promo code TIREat checkout. By popular demand, the WCCS hat is for sale! https://thesmokingtireshop.com/products/west-side-car-collectors Use Off The Record! and ALWAYS fight your tickets!
