quite interesting thread. I'm very curious!

i love my race tune to! i was running his torque tune for a while since my race tune made my car ping when i got on it. i was afraid to use it and lazy to call. more or less i was happy witht he torque tune. then i ordered my borla stingers axel backs and figured i would try the race tune again. no ping! i think the mufflers may have relieved something that was causing the ping. i love it the car just wants to go haha!

have you tried the torque tune doug does at the track? ive heard some people saying that his race tune is good but does slow down a lil in the 1/4 mile. and others on here say that his torque tune is better for the drag strip. just what i remember reading in an earlier posts.

The race tune is no good IMO on the track because I can not hold a rev to save my life. W/ his TQ tune, the rev stays perfect. I also get my best time by shifting @ 6500, just throwing that out there.

but his RACE tune is great w/ throttle response, crazy fun.

I'd like to know how he makes the throttle response so crazy touchy with the race tune because when I get a dyno tune later I want them to make the throttle the same as doug's race tune.

Maybe the Brenspeed was faster in the 1320 because with the Bama tune loaded...they couldn't handle all the extra HP/TQ and just spun their tires. Oh SNAP!

Normal driving I prefer the race tune, although I do use the tq tune time to time. At the track I prefer the tune. Again, I use the race tune sometimes. I think the problem with the race tune at the track, especially if you using the race tune, is that it's harder to get a decent launch and 60' time.

I use Bama's 87 torque tune when gas is crazy expensive or I'm taking a long road trip across multiple states. It's a good daily driver but the way it doesn't really come on until about 3100RPM is strange. The 91 race tune gets used when gas is more affordable ( no 93 octane gas in Arizona) and it is a beast. First gear goes by in a heartbeat and I fishtail when I speed shift to second on most surfaces. I haven't worked up the guts to powershift yet, but I will. Next step will be 3:90 gears.

Not to get into a gear thread, but go with FRPP 4.10s instead of 3.90s. You will not be disapointed.

What was that about the brenspeed tune having to be reloaded? If I get their tune will I have to get a new one every month as my car gets slower? Please explain, this is troubling. Im about to get the jlt and tune from them, dont want to waste my money.
