Default American Muscle tune?

I'm thinking about getting one of their tunes. $50 for 3 tunes sounds like a good deal.

Has anyone had an experience with them? Gains?

Have you had a personal experience with a tune from them?

From what I understand they write your tune file and then email it to you. That's why it's priced that way.

I would go with morepowertuning.com I got my tune from there for my 96 GT and it has never run better, huge improvement in all aspects and better gas mileage to boot. Tell him Dan recommended them if you check em out

You will def. see get a better feel out of your car with a AM tune over a stock tune for sure (93 octane would be the best.). If you have a auto , gears and minor bolt ons it would hurt at all , But with sniper tuning you could tune the car yourself with step by step instructions (PM CliffyK about that software, dude has mad knowledge). The best place for tune if you have no experience tuning would be a dyno tune for sure but IMPO , I wouldn't get one unless there's a major mod being put on your car.

As long as your not trying to run it with a blower/ or H/C/I for being a main tune then yea def. , Im running a 93 tune from them right now and the car feels like it responded better to the throttle , MPG increased slightly , and my speedo was corrected with my gears.

And ye I see way too many people on here saying GET A LS1 , when infact they dont have one or mad they knew nothing about cars before they bought there mustang and get spanked by GM.

ferrr sure.. $50 bucks seems really cheap for a tune. i bought a mustang knowing LS1's were fast but i grew up with mustangs and fast ones at that so it was only natural.

I'm dealing with More Power Tuning also right now (SCT actully told me to go to them).
I only got one tune for $75 but they are working with me to get that one tune perfect. I keep sending them Data logs and then they send me an adjusted tune. So far seem like great people
