Brenspeed or Bama?

What are the three tunes I should get? Where should I get the Tuner?

I basically drive around town and run 87 octane for now. I plan on puttng 93 in it after i get the tune and just have fun with the car. I have x pipe and axle backs, will be betting gears and a new shifter in the spring.

Adding the intake and tune for xmas.

Stuck on where I should buy it and what tunes I should get? Tell me why I should choose.

i got mine from Brenspeed. Most people here will say Brenspeed or Bama, or even Tillman. I ordered C&L Racer intake mainly because of the large 95mm mass air flow and the srvice was very quick, surprisingly quick from what I've read about some of the others on here. The kit is great, although I bet the JLT and Steedas are just as good. The tune is great I run 93 Performance as 93 is available here and I put so few miles and use so little gas that filling up just doesn't bother me compared to my $80.00 per tank to fill up my daily driver F150, or the $100.00 is takes to fill up the wife's Expidition EL.

In short I recommend Brenspeed it has been faultless and after 5 months never a problem or bad code thrown from the tune.

There should be a FAQ outlawing these threads any more. Must be about 50 brenspeed vs bamachips threads this year alone.. hahah. Use either person. Bamachips has a rep for automatic cars but I don't know about it personally since I have a manual. I have both Brenspeed and Bamachips tunes for my car and they are very similar. (Dyno'd both tunes too!)

You should also check out Ken's tunes at Modular Depot.

I am running his 93 tune and it put down more power than the other tune I was running. (which was by one of the two guys you are considering)

I went with Brenspeed and have been happy but from what I've read about both of them I think you'll be happy either way.

I have BAMA but I'm going to try Brenspeed soon. BAMA 93Race tune just seems off to me but maybe I expect to much but I've been hearing good things about Brenspeed

call both or all three places for 3 days in a row and who ever answers the phone most often go with them. I have seen several threads from people not being able to get a hold of customer service.
