BAMA Tune?

BAMA Tune?
The fruits of my searches led me to BAMA as the best choice for a tune for my 2011 GT.
I like the idea that I can just call them when I add a new part and they'll send me a new tune.
Questions I have for those of you that have direct experience with BAMA tunes.
1. Are their tunes good? Worth the money? I'm not planning to go far, maybe just a CAI and 3.73 gears.
2. Has anyone ever had a bad experience? I want power but I want reliability more.
3. Do I need to revert back to stock tune when getting my car serviced or do they care?

1) Yes. Esp for really simple mods like you are looking to do.
2) For all the thousands of tunes they do, I'm sure a few have had a bad experience. But consider the sheer bulk of how much they do vrs any negativity you receive. 99% of people on here will highly recomment AM for anything. There is a reason for that...
3) You can but you don't really need to.
Hope that helps bud! :-)

I don't think the mileage is an issue, and I'm very happy with the tunes I've received from AM and BAMA. Go for it! And I don't plan on reverting my car back to stock if I have to go to the Ford service department.

The american muscle tunes for life is the best deal going. They have a cai/tuner combo or tuner/gear combo so either way your all set. I suggest if going into ford for service. Return to stock and drive 50 or so miles so so the computer doesn't show a stop in the system or tell them you had your battery unhooked for a while.

I really wanted to answer these questions, but damn - these guys did a great job! This is a very educated forum, so you'll get great advice from the members. Just to follow up, yes you'll be in love with the Bama tunes. Of course, when you do a ridiculous volume of tunes, you're going to run into a higher volume of problems. Luckily, our Bama team is there for you to call and they'll take care of you. No middle man, you can speak right to our tuning team. They're here in the building Monday-Friday from 9AM-5:30PM EST at 888.226.9764!

I just bought the SCT from AM a few months ago and its worth every penny. Last couple weeks my car hasnt been running horrible but not great. I emailed AM about checking out my data log to make sure my tune was good and Ryan at AM has been great! Emailed me back with 24 hours, then after I sent him my datalog info emailed me back within 48 hours and that was only because they got hit with snow. He has helped out alot and I am getting ready to do my second data log to send him to follow up. The customer service has been excellent! Thanks AM and Ryan!
