RE: Tune Advice
i do a lot of tire screeching in my auto. even before my gear upgrade. now the race tune is awesome. very hard to resist hitting the powerband every time i take off from stops. [8D]

RE: Tune Advice
I'm not running bama tunes, but I've got 87, 93, and race tunes. I run the 87 through winter; 93 is the highest octane in this region, which I run in the summer; and the race tune is for the track when unleaded 104 is available.

RE: Tune Advice
Hmmm I think I have my mind set then on the 87 Perf, 91 Torq+Race Tunes (Even tho it wasnt one of my choices LOL) I'm hoping that the 91 race tune can come close to the acceleration and overall performance as a G35 (Maybe wishful thinking but, HEY!! LOL)....Moms has one of them and I LOVE the way that thing accelerates!

RE: Tune Advice
well since ur comparing it to a G35, you should be satisfied with the acceleration but dont expect it to match the G35 in the high end. ALSO, you should really consider at least a take-off GT muff. they're dirt cheap and will give you that little extra umph and better sound to go with your upgraded performance.

I should be getting my GT takeoffs this weekend from a fellow MF'er

RE: Tune Advice
The options changed since I voted. I would go for 87 Perf, 91 Torq, 91 Race. I did that but with the 93 octane tunes instead of 91. But I run 99.9% of the time on the 93 race tune.

RE: Tune Advice
ok, guys...so clear me up on something here. I know tuners come with 3 tunes...but you only load one tune at a time right? I mean you can't just load all 3 tunes and expect the car to respond by what type of gas you put in??? If I start with a 93 tune and want to pump 87 I would have to reflash for the 87 tune yes?
