Default Got me something

I just bought a SCT X3 from brenspeed the other day and I'm starting to get excited even though I wont be able to try it out until the spring time. Do you guys think I would benefit from it performance wise with the mods I have? I would mainly have the 93 octane tune on but I mainly did this for the 4:10's. Thought I see what you guys think.

Did u just purchase the X3 or did u get the X3 with a custom tune from BrenSpeed? There is a big diffrence between a custom tune and the 87, 91, 93 octane canned tune.

You might see a slight gain, but going to a tuner and getting a dyno tune using your tuner is going to get you the best benefit. But now that you have the tuner, it makes it that much cheaper to get the dyno tune. So just correct for the gears and put in the high octane tune for the time being...then get a dyno tune when you can or if you decide to get longtubes, do it then.
