+1 on feeling a difference with the Brenspeed tune. Update this thread after you install the new tune. I tell people I was light headed after loading the tune the first time because all the blood ran into my dick. Matter of fact, it STILL does whenever I drive my Stang.

I got it today at lunch and installed the tune before heading back to work. The interface was easy to use and within minutes I fired it up. The tone I've never heard before when starting up, it sounded meaner. I backed out and turned onto the street, putting the same pressure I usually do on the pedal. Before I knew it, I was almost going 60 on a residential street. It took off, which surprised me since I only put the 87 octane tune on. The cell lights came off thankfully and stayed off the remainder of the drive. It's also a automatic and I was able to rev it more than usual, which was fun. Overall, $400 for a Brenspeed SCT tuner is a lot, but at least I'm not disappointed. I want to try the 89 octane tune next and figure out if I'm going to put the SCT badge on, did any of you?

As far as the tunes, the custom 87 tune rocks compared to the 87 stock tune. But don't get too excited. There's a bigger change from the stock 87 to the custom 87 tune than there is from the custom 87 to custom 89 or higher. Don't get me wrong; there IS a difference. Just not as profound.

I put the SCT badge on my toolbox. lol. I have the 87 tune and 93 tune on my handheld. I cant say theres really that much of a difference. the 93 runs a lot smoother to be honest. I get ping with 87, but thats what I normally run because this is my daily driver and 93 is NOT cheap.

Edit: Oh and my dyno numbers in my signature were made on Brenspeeds 87 tune.

hahahaha! Love the removal of the throttle lag. Sure does kick it up a notch.

I still have my SCT badge in the case with the tuner :x
