Their tunes are not good, you're just not in the loop on some things some of us are. I've personally data logged three Bama tuned cars in person and all with to much timing and the knock sensors turned off. I'd post the logs but I'm sure they would get taken down rather quickly. Do you have any personal experience?

I went with a no tune CAI and fuel economy actually went down. Unless you just like the look then I wouldn't waste the money.

Really? Let's see, about 75% of the forum members are tuned. Of those, about 90% are BAMA and Brenspeed tunes. There have been very few... wait... NO... engine failures that have been reported here. What data do you have on engine failures by BAMA and/or Brenspeed tunes?

You're just making up numbers as you go with no actual basis to back it up.

You haven't provided any information to back up your claims either.

Well everyone knows . . . . .

75% of all statistics are made up on the spot.

C'mon, Jim... I did a poll about 1-2 years ago. It was 75% (give or take 2 or 3) of the forum WAS tuned.

Actually on the forum I'd be surprised if it was only 75% and not higher.
