Do you guys think I should order my CAI and tune through Doug or Brenspeed? I know Doug is/has been super busy, so I don't know if now would be a good time to try and get it through him. If Brenspeed will do it right, I wouldn't mind going through them, they did me well with my Hurst.
Like Brian stated we've all gone with Doug and couldn't be happier so I'm sure you won't get an unbiased opinion here.

I'm a big fan of Doug and his tunes. I'm sure Bill, Leo, John, Tom, Daryl and a couple others would agree.
I feel like someone's setting me up for 2nd Place.


I agree, go with BamaChips. I hear Doug's the man over in the Collective.

Really can't go wrong with either. Had I chosen Brenspeed back when I was faced with this decision, I'm sure a few of us now would be pushing Brent's tune.

Not biased at all... 91/93R Tunes Rule!

I had a feeling I knew the kind of answers I would get.

After looking through everything, I think I will end up going with BamaChips. Does Doug charge to rework a tune once you have other mods? Brenspeed will only rework the tune free of charge if you buy the part from them.

When they come out in 18's, it should be available in both 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 sizes.

According to their website, the 9.5" are capable of running 285's.
Bill great choice if you go with these, they are stylish yet unique. On the stang its a winner!

Nope Doug will update your tune regardless of where you get the new mods from.

When two passions collide...

As you all know I love Mustangs. Only problem is I have another passion that I love just as much. NFL Football. So with that said Sept 9 theirs a car show I want to enter in. Only problem is this also happens to be the first week of the Season and my Packers are playing the Eagles. I have a Tivo but it just feels so wrong to miss the first game of the season. Last season I lucked out and the weeks I had car show's just happened to either be bye week or a week were they played on Sunday or Monday night. Decisions, decisions. Good thing is I'm only entering 3 car shows this year not including this Suday's show.

Hi Leo yes I'll be at R & R Sunday bright and early! It's only two blocks from the pad. So I'll probably have breakfast and lunch at R & R's all in one day! Should be a great event, I'm not trying to win anything just like to hang around other stangers! and...

CU there!

I know I wouldn't be missing any Gator games for a cars show.

I would consider skipping a Bucs or Bears game for a Mustang show though...Just how much do you love your Packers?

Well let's see I've been watching them for 15 years and the only games I've missed were due to being on deployments while in the Marine Corps. So I'd say I'm a pretty die hard fan. I've got the very worn cheesehead to prove it. Which by the way I wear everygame even if I'm sitting on my couch at home.

I'm a diehard Seattle fan. Not a bandwagoner but a long-time fan. I understand how you feel about the Packers.

Hey I have an Official Cheesehead Hat too.
GO PACK GO !!

I have a die-hard 49er fan that had to wear this particular hat at WORK for a week after we knocked them out of the playoffs again, a few years back.

Unfortunately if you have taken a look at our schedule this year, it will be a long one for us I am afraid.

Must.. be.. here.. tomorrow!
