I just installed the JLT CAI with the BamaChips 93 Torque tune and the difference is amazing. It is pouring down rain right now so I couldn't open it up, but I can still tell a huge difference at only part throttle. I have to really baby the throttle from a stop not to spin the tires (wet pavement). I'll post some more results once everything dries up and I can actually have some fun. I'll also try the performance tune and see how it compares.
Thanks for the wonderful tunes Doug.

Glad to hear you like it so far. I don't know if you will be able to tell much of a difference between the tunes or not.I could not. Doug did my tunes for a C&L and I can't tell you how much I love to drive my car now.This is the way it should have come from the factory!!!!

I can't wait either, ordered C&L XCal2 last week. He must be swamped with all the business he's getting from us.

I just converted from the old JLT tune to Dougs and I'm in love. I can't wait to get it on the dyno and see what I picked up.

I got to get it out a little today since everything was dried up and it was incredible. It really feels like I added 75 horsepower (even though I know it is only about 25). Talk about a seat of the pants difference! The car shifts much firmer and I get a real good chirp in 2nd and a small one sometimes in 3rd. I couldn't tell much of a difference between the Torque and Performance tunes, they are both great! I highly recommend this setup to anyone! My expectations were high after reading all the posts here, but this setup easily exceeded my expectations. The JLT also looks great under the hood.

I was wondering how much harder the firm shifts are on the transmission? Also, with 3rd gear pulling all the way to redline, it stays at high RPMs for a while. Is this anything to worry about as far as damaging the engine and should I be worried about reliability with the transmission? I wouldn't think it would be that bad, just wondering what you guys that know more than me think.

I love the hard shifts. Add in some 4.10s and you can forget the "chirp" in 2nd... the whole rear end of the car will break loose and jump out on you. I love doing that... except when I forget to turn TCS off, and the car noses over. haha

I second that!!!
I forgot to turn TCS off once when getting on the freeway and it activated when the car started to break loose the rear end.
Hey Don, I still have the stock gears, so it's not just with the 410's.
