I just got this package from Brenspeed and cant say enough good things about it. Beware though, once you feel the power of the higher octane tunes, you wont want to go back to the low octane gas. I bought cheaper gas this time and I cant wait until my tank is dry so that I can get back to the 93 tune. The lower octane tunes are good but they are just not the same.

When you get the tuner and CAI package you'll have at least three performance tunes, usually 87, 91, and 93 Octane. All will give you better performance than you now have. A word of caution though even though you will actually get better gas mileage with this setup, your driving habits may change (you'll see) so fuel economy becomes, not so important

do it now!!!

you won't regret it. just got my jlt 2/sct2 combo from brenspeed and i looooooooove it!

i'm using the 87 octane right now becase i'm cheap and i DEFINITELY NOTICE THE DIFFERENCE... you don't need to use the 91 or 93 tune but i'll probably try it eventually.

might not go back though!

I just installed the Steeda CAI w/tube and the B a m a tune with the SCT tuner. I'm currently running the 87 tune and it's night and day difference. I should have the tank low enough in a couple of days to load it with 91 fuel. Absolutely worth the price of admission!

if it's an issue of money and you got someone who will buy your wheels now... i'd probably sell your wheels first...
