Bamachips race tune is awesome. 4.10s plus the race tune is a winning combination

I haven't purchased from Bama or Brenspeed yet. I did send emails to both and Bama took almost a week to respond. Brenspeed responded within hours two different times. Think I'm going to purchase bullit intake and tune from them if only because of better service.

I haven't with Brenspeed, but Bamachips customer service is top notch. I believe only two people work at Bamachips, so I am sure they get swamped.

So, did you install the tune yet? If you don't respond in a few hrs, we assume your out having fun in your car.

I'm not real high on Bama. They've been hard to contact. Sometimes it has taken several weeks. But when and if you can contact them, they respond.

I'm also not sure I've got a real good tune from them. It runs OK. But mpg is lower than stock. I expected it to get slightly better. Not that I got a tune for mpg, but mpg is the only thing I can measure objectively. The butt dyno reports good results, but the butt dyno looks at the mpg numbers and wonders if the butt dyno should be even better.

WOWZERS..... Holy crap that was fast. I mean honestly, HUGE differnace.... the 3 things I notice..
1. My CEL is gone. I would expect no less.

2. WOT power is MUCH improved.

3. Throttle response is just insane. I have a feeling they just had to change the % of throttle response on the actuator compared to % of throttle pressed... But man, if FREAKING MOVES now.

I realy just wish the roads were better today.... there was alot of melt off so the roads are all wet and I couldnt get it to hold traction in first hardly at all, and even from a low roll in 2nd, once it got into a higher rpm, as soon as I hit any kinda bump they started spinning..... and I got 4.10s going in next week.... shell be all set for summer. I LIKE, thanks Bamachips!
