I went to the 1/8 mile track today and tested Brooksspeed 91 tune against Bamas 91 race and 91 tq. The DA today was 2850 to 2900' Here are the fastest times of each tune today:
Brookssped 60' 1.996
E.T 8.887
MPH 81.046

Bama 91tq 60' 2.2035
E.T 9.105
MPH 81.219

Bama 91 Race 60' 2.011
E.T 8.809
MPH 81.193

With everything being equal these tunes run close to the same time. I almost find it inconclusive on which tune is the best. The race tune was the most difficult to launch; although I was having problems with the tq tune. Brooksspeed seemed easier to launch.

Do you mean brenspeed?

Rich congrats on 5000 posts. I believe he means Brookspeed as in Eric Brooks from ModFords.

gmantheman

That's right Brooksspeed as in Eric Brooks.

GRAYPNY

Yeah I forgot about Eric as a tuner. I heard that is does a great job.

5000 posts and I only have about half as many as you Tom!

Splitting hairs, but the Bama Race tune looks best.
Equal 60's would get you 8.78 or better compaired to Brookspeed
Then the Bama TQ.

Work on your 60' and you'll be flyin

I'm going to try Eric's tune once I install my delete plates. I have it loaded in my Xcal and I'll see how it goes.

I love Erics tunes. I've had frpp tune, brenspeed tune, and now brooksspeed tune and it is by far the best of the three. Not only the most power but it is the most refined. The car idles down right away on startup instead of taking a while, etc. I consider him one of thee best s197 tuner's out there.

I hope to take the car to the 1/4 mile track on Dec 5, so I can re-test these tunes. I like using Eric's tunes as a D/D. At the dyno, all three tunes dynoed within 1-2 hp/tq of each other.
