I'll be ordering a Bamachips tune soon, I'm a little torn between the Torque, Performance, and Race tune. My Mustang is my daily driver, I will probably race a little bit, but not that much. Here are the mods I'll have done by the time I install the tune.

My car has the 3.55 rear end and is a manual. All the tunes will be for 91Octane, I do have 93 available in my area but I want to play it safe with 91. I'm currently running the Diablosport canned tune for the C&L Street.

on dougs site it says not to run the race tune on the street because u will squeal the tires. its true but if you just feather into it you will be fine. i would get the race tune.

Race tune FTW!!! .. You won't regret it!!

Wally39

Yeah, you wouldn't want to be able to squeal tires

That was sarcasm lol

How much different can the Race tune possibly feel over the Torque tune. Doug says you can spin the tires from a launch if you aren't carefull, can it really be that touchy with just a tune?

rshamekh

Yes, it is that touchy. The difference is that the race tune pulls better than the torque at the high end rpm.

They are about the same in the low end range.

So, basically the race combines both the torque and the performance.

Is it going to be impossible to launch and shift smoothly with a Race tune?

rshamekh

You CAN launch smoothly without spinning!! The launch is about the same as the torque tune.
But I'm not sure about the shiftings, I'm an auto. But my shifts are pretty hard.

I use it as my daily driver and no problems at all.
What's better than chirping 2nd and 3rd on an auto!!

acascianelli

Will I be chirping 2nd uncontrollably?

91 Race tune all the way. The fact that you/we even want a CAI/tune says it all right there.
We want performace. I run the race tune and it's my DD (until winter hits) and have not
had any problems. I still ordered an 87 perf just in case there's no 91 available.
