well, I have run both tunes and I do like the Bama tune a little more because its a little more aggressive off the line and overall.. though its also pretty rough on the tranny from what I hear because of those aggressive shifts (lightning quick). A day at the track and I can feel the tranny heating up...

Good to hear man!
Too many mixed reveiws for me to do this mod at the moment.
Not arguing your gains at all and I hope they really do provide this kind of gain.
If in the future alot of other people praise it, it may have to go into my mod plans
One thing also you forgot to mention about the install,
it does take some time to do hehehe.

Install was a peice of cake. I did a rear end disassembly on a 99 ford ranger with aluminum housing last week, and a trans axle off an older escort- this job was a cake walk in comparrison lol
honestly, I wasn't gonna put them on either- I just did it as a test run sort of deal...

I just found a set of saleen plates that i got for under 100 shipped on ebay. I'll do the install and let you guys know if I can tell a difference. I think every car reacts differently to mods though. Just adding an o/r h-pipe made a huge difference to me as far as power gains, but the jump from 3.31s to 3.73s didn't feel that drastic.

Not worth the $150(+tune), but definetly worth the $80 or so bucks, if you do the install yourself.

I did get my CAI/tuner combo from Brenspeed. However, I thought they would only give you an updated tune if you bought the next mod from them. So, I wouldn't think they would update my tune if I bought an Ebay part like this. Am I wrong? If so, I may consider this mod!

I did get my CAI/Tune from them, they were very helpful with updated tunes.
That was a year ago though, things must have changed??

hhmm.. I remember getting a re-tune from them after being unsatisfied with my FRPP 4.10 install (got them from Ebay), and I was not charged for it.
