I have to agree that the tuners are way too expensive for what you get, but the tune inside is worth every penny...Best bang for the buck IMO

Tuner is 100% worth it....[sm=exactly.gif]
the K&N not so much ...[sm=forgetit.gif]

Go for the C&L or if money is the issue get the JLT II.
+100.

and your stang looks badass lol.

150% yes! But, canned tunes aren't worth it. If you're going to spend the money on a tuner, get your car custom tuned on the dyno so you'll realize the full potential.

$400.00 for a tuner for my 07GT....................... are they really worth the money? Todd at Brenspeed said $379, with 3 custom tunes. I have a K&N cai and Flows........

I have a SCT Tuner for cheap, all you have to do is send it to Brenspeed or where ever and they will load tunes. PM for price.........

you won't see that much of a gain till you get the CAI and it's tuned for it. But i would get the cai and the tune at the same time or buy the cai now and install it when you get the tuner. If you buy from brenspeed, they will give you free tunes, if you buy from someone else and need a new tune, you have to pay for it like a CAI or delete plates and such.
Correction, Brenspeed will only write new tunes for freeif you buy performance parts from THEM! B a m a chips will write new tunes for you regardless of where you buy performance parts! I'm not ******* Brenspeed, they do great stuff......but B a m a chips is the way to go!!!!!!!!!

I do think $400 is a ridiculous price for the tuner, but it made me just as happy as the day I bought the car (and that cost a ****load more!!)
