I run the 93 race tune on my dd and love it. The throttle is sensitive, but nothing you won't get used to. Also, itmakes my car soundmean as hell when downshifting at stops. Seems to have more engine braking than other tunes I have run. HTH

I edited this to add: I have notrun the B@ma Torque nor Performance tunes, so I cannot compare the 93 Race to them, but don't think I will be trying them anytime soon.

Ive got the 91 race tune right now and its pretty good, but i want to try it with 94 octance. If i adjust the global timing up 2 would i be able to safely run a higher octane fuel? Anyone try this yet, i emailed doug a while ago to ask him but he hasn' gotten back to me yet
You should be fine.However, if it pings, then just pullsome timing.

k so alot of people are asking what the difference is between his 3 most popular tunes. this is what he told me in person. The torque tune focuses more on low end power, so you dont have as much on the high end. The performance tune and race tune have the same power the only difference is that the Race tune has a very sensitive throttle. i use the race tune on my car, its my daily driver. i love it. you do have to be carefull with it tho. as far as that one guy goes who is bashing b a m a. tunes are not always about how much power you can make, but how the power that you make is used. i fukin love my b a m a dyno tune. i wouldnt go with anyone else. yes doug does take some time to respond to emails but when i went to his new shop for my dyno tune, you should have seen how many emails he gets. he had 230 just from one night! now tell me if you were running a business like that, pretty much by yourself you could answer all those emails, ship out CAI's, program tuners for specific cars, answer the phones, and help customers who are there. not as easy as u might think.

go with the race tune, you wont bedissapointed. trust me

I can't, Brenspeed doesn't write tunes for Diablo Predators. So unless someone wants to trade me a XCal2, Bamachips is the only option.

Well I can see that the overwhelming majority of people suggested the Race tune. So it looks like I'll be getting a Race tune for 91 Octane.

I ordered a Race tune last night. Thank you everyone for your help.

Update: I just got an email from Doug with my tune. Great success.
