what does all this means, as a European I dont get it
Maybe its time to get some explanations to all special tuning/mustang words that flows around here like:
- dynotune
-Bamachips
-Brenspeed
-Evolution Performance
-VMP Tuning Inc.
but there is a lot more, but I have no idea what it means, maybe it could be a good idea to have those words explained there is at least 30 words, it would be good foreigns and for newbies
- dynotune
-Bamachips
-Brenspeed
-Evolution Performance
-VMP Tuning Inc.

Bamachips and brenspeed are both NON-dyno tuners along with parts dealers. They sell mustang items but are best known for their customer specific tunes that are based on parts installed on the car.
Evolution Preformance and VMP Tuning are both preformance shops for mustangs that installl and work on mustangs and engines of taht sort.

Dyno or Dynotuneing is the process of taking your car to a shop that has equipment that can test your car for its exact scientific horsepower and torque with computerized equipment.

Bamachips, brenspeed, Evo and VMP are all dyno tuners.....they are at the top of the tuning world for the 2005+ Mustang
Bama is pretty much all tuning, he is the only person that is running the company for the most part and does not sell that many parts other than the tuners and CAIs
The others sell a wide range of parts along with their tunes that can be done be email also. Brenspeed and EVO can do installs for most things they sell also.
All 4 companys can and will write tunes based on your mods and email them to you if you already have a tuner or will load them into a tuner if you buy it from them

C&L is a company that makes CAIs - Cold Air Intake. BamaChips is one of the companies who does tunes, and is the one Matt chose
CMCV = Charge Motion Control Valve - The way it's referenced here, Matt has the CMCV delete plates to remove this valve from the intake flow
O/R H-pipe is Off-Road H pipe, meaning it has no catalytic converters in it.
Suspension? I think you know what that is..
Denny's DS is Denny's Driveshaft. They're over on Military Road in Kenmore/Buffalo.. Very high-quality driveshafts. In this case, it's a one piece driveshaft that has been put in to replace the stock 2-piece driveshaft.
HTH!
