Default Looking for Tuner advice

Greetings!
I picked up a beautiful 2014 GT Premium Convertible with the 6 speed a couple months ago.
Only mods right now are a Borla exhaust and K&N filter- otherwise bone stock.
I am looking for some POWER boost and was considering a tuner.
I grew up on Superchips (a buddy of mine had a 97 COBRA with one) and Hypertech, now I am seeing BAMA, Diablo, ETC...

Looking for thoughts and experience with these different types and where I should spend the $$... any help is appreciated!!

We offer tuning and work along side with Lund Racing to ensure you have the best possible tune for your set up. You would have greater gains by adding a Cold air intake but with where you stand now you should see Average Gains Across The Curve - 35 Rear Wheel Horsepower and 34 Rear Wheel Torque. If you have any Questions Please feel free to contact me.

As far as the actual tuner hardware goes, there's pretty much just Diablo and SCT. The various options each brand has is personal preference. But you should decide on who is going to write your tune before buying a tuner, as many have a preference one way or the other.

The SCT's win the majority over Diablo, IMO, and it seems that the vendors writing the tunes favor SCT. Evolution (see their post above), BAMA/AM and Brenspeed write excellent tunes.

Default tune it

I have a 2012 gt vert. I put roush axle backs on great sound. I found a used bbk intake with a sct tuner for sale on kijiji. This is a free buying selling site in Canada. I picked up the pair for 400 dollars Canadian. Installed them both. Wow what a difference. So much more power. I put in the 91 tune. The car just flies. And sounds so sweet. Love my stang even more now.
