Default Amazon tune

I must be a tune ***** of some sort but I just installed Amazon's tune. I took the car for a quick trip around the block and my initial impression is this tune pulls very hard. I am very impressed. But I am wondering if this is a placebo effect as each time I load a new tune I am impressed. This Saturday I am taking the car to the 1/8 mile strip. I guess I will see.

Amazon tuning has a lot of experience with cobra's, a lot of people on svtforums use amazon tuning.
some of my friends have great results with them.
