Default Throttle Lag

I know this subject has been talked about many times, but doing a search I didnt come up with exactly what I was looking for. I have an 07 GT and the throttle lag is a bit annoying. Im looking for a programmer to get rid of the lag but I could care less about a HP program since I drive 5000 miles a month and fill my tank every other day. 91 octane would put a huge dent in my wallet. Im fine with 87. Please let me know if anyone knows of a custom tune that just has the throttle lag program or what are the least expensive tuners which have this option?

Call one of the popular programmers and they can give you all the answers you need. I would suggest an 87 oct tune from brenspeed while running a stock filter. If you are worried about milage a CAI and a tune would get rid of the lag and improve your burning. I personally saw a 4MPG increase running those two mods(driving like a normal person of course).The prices of the tuners are not bad IMO and with brenspeed on the 07 you get two tunes I went 1 mild and 1 aggressive. The mild one just collects dust. I honestly dont see the point of buying a tuner and not using it for some performance it will be the same price either way.

For the increase in MPG it will be close to the difference in cost of 91 octane. a tune an a CAI is the answer.
