Looking to get sct but don't know what way to go? Any suggestions?
You using a lund tune ?DDTCM said:Bama tunes are pretty safe and you get 3 tunes plus free tunes for life.
Lund is $200 per tune (worth it) and will be pretty aggressive.
Steeda........I have no experience with.

$200 is steep for a tune lol I'm sure they are great but this is my daily driver not my weekend race car so I think I'll just go with bama then... I just want a little more pepDDTCM said:I'm using Bama. I will not use a Lund tune because of the cost per tune and he is hard to communicate with from what I've heard. I will be getting a dyno tune soon. I've heard nothing but good things about the Lund tunes from friends though.
FYI,if you choose to get a Cammed tune from Lund you will get your regular tune and that same tune with the cam for $200.
You run a street tune or race tune around town? Does it make a difference ?lBRAlD said:I've got Bama tunes, run all 3 and never had a problem with it. Like said return car to stock before updating new tunes. I've not updated yet but when I do I know the tuner has to be updated as well.
Yeah, I've heard the horror stories too. I plan to keep using Bama until I go supercharged, then I'll have it Dyno tuned.DDTCM said:I saw a ton of threads about people having major issues with their SCT but I had no problems whatsoever. People were saying when they changed tunes they had issues and had to be on the phone for hours with SCT. Just remember to return the car to stock before you load your tunes off the computer. RETURN TO STOCK BEFORE LOADING TUNES FROM COMPUTER.
Very important!! I did this wrong and my car was out of comission for like a week until i could get my tuner redone.DDTCM said:I saw a ton of threads about people having major issues with their SCT but I had no problems whatsoever.

I think almost all the horror stories were on 13's.primer2tone said:Yeah, I've heard the horror stories too. I plan to keep using Bama until I go supercharged, then I'll have it Dyno tuned.
Do you have some kind of mental malfunction? Get that tune you wanker!Mustang32Bill said:I need one ASAP I have a steeda cai and cat deletes just sitting in my basement lol
You could put the cat deletes on bud. Your CEL might come on tho but nothing will hirt your car.Mustang32Bill said:I need one ASAP I have a steeda cai and cat deletes just sitting in my basement lol
Damn don't say that I have a 13 lol but how different does the tune make your car feel? And your auto too right? Because that's what I havenhcowboy said:I think almost all the horror stories were on 13's.
11-12 never had any such issues. I also think that SCT and bama have solved those "brick" situations.
I run bama 93 race as dd.
Lol I planned on getting a tuner first but deals on eBay I couldn't resist so I went backwards ahaprimer2tone said:Do you have some kind of mental malfunction? Get that tune you wanker!
Yea i heard that the 13's had a little something different (compression wise) if i remember someone on here said that Bama didnt take into account which caused problems with the 13's. Hopefully those problems are fixed by now. And a tune will make a pretty big differencw. Especially if you have a auto. Because your shift points are perfect.Mustang32Bill said:Damn don't say that I have a 13 lol but how different does the tune make your car feel? And your auto too right? Because that's what I have
I heard some 13 going into limp mode without a tuner... Don't know if its true but didn't wanna chance it lolJake said:You could put the cat deletes on bud. Your CEL might come on tho but nothing will hirt your car.
Ah, that's good to hear. I've been using the 93 Street tune.nhcowboy said:I think almost all the horror stories were on 13's.

Ha. Primer said wanker.Mustang32Bill said:Damn don't say that I have a 13 lol but how different does the tune make your car feel? And your auto too right? Because that's what I have
You run the cam tune too?nhcowboy said:Ha. Primer said wanker.
I've got an auto... Night and day. This thing explodes at WOT. Even with really...really...really good street tires (pilot super sports), I spin/chirp at launch, chirp through second... And third... Sometimes 4th. (I $hit you not).
A bit scary at the track without better drag tires.
I think the cam tune is only available for off road exhausts and manual trans.Mustang32Bill said:You run the cam tune too?
I think they have one for autos now but yeah no catsnhcowboy said:I think the cam tune is only available for off road exhausts and manual trans.
Sooooo.... No .
Talked to AM about needing o/r exhaust. I was told it is not completely necessary. The tune will work with cats on. However over time it will damage the cats.nhcowboy said:I think the cam tune is only available for off road exhausts and manual trans.

It's still common slang across the pond.jdavis96gt said:Wanker. Haven't heard that since middle school (94.) We use to call people that all the time lol. Good one primer
