yeah its pretty easy. I ordered mine a few weeks back. All of the Q's are drop downs and are defaulted to "stock". THe only issue I ran into, and was my fault, was that I forgot that 3:55 gears came as an option in '08 on the GT 5peeds. I selected stock but contact AM/bama and they wrote me a new tune and emailed it to me within a day.

I think all in all, it took about 2 min to fill out all the info they wanted.

The questions are all really simple. What size rear tire? What axle ratio? What PCM code? What 3 tune octanes for Street, Performance and Race? Do you have a CAI? Do you have long tube headers? Do you have cams? etc. Very simple, but crucial questions so that we can calibrate it perfectly for you!

Quick addon question:

When you tune it - lets say for example Performance Tune - does it ask what kind of fuel you will be running (87,89,91,93)? Or is it just tuned to performance and you use what ever fuel you want to use?

The tune is written for a specific octane, its what determines the timing tables.

You MUST use the fuel the tune is written for or higher. Just get a tune for 93 and be done with it.
