Bama 93 race tune or performance tune

I just got my airaid cold air intake and X4 tuner I was wondering what would be better for a daily driver performance or race tune?

It's really just up to personal preference. I run the 93 Race tune all the time...

The better choice would be a Mike Rousch tune from Mid-Atlantic Performance. Way better than the Bama (and SCT) tunes I got with my SCT Tuner from American Muscle.

I've used and enjoyed both. I'm sticking with the 93R though because I really enjoy the acceleration. Love how it moves through the gears and it gets up to 80ish very quickly. Slight drop in MPG's though. It's all preference. Try both for a little while and see.

I had a Bama race tune on my two previous cars and I used them for my daily driver. Excellent tunes. Don't listen to the haters.

I as well enjoy the 93 bama tune I got.... Ran it for a few runs and put the 91 in for a try... Huge difference.
93 going back in!

I run the 93 race tune 24/7, runs well.. a bit touchy though.
Car makes all the numbers it's supposed to make, I've been very happy with bama through the years.
Lots of haters out there with very little basis for hate beyond "eh it's a mail tune".
No reason to go all out dyno tune if you're not done modding yet, can't beat free updates every time you make a change.

The performance tune is probably less touchy on the pedal.

I prefer the hybrid tune. AM doesn't advertise it but if you have tunes for life you can request the hybrid tune. It is the best of both worlds. It has the good acceleration at low rpms like the street tune and the good acceleration at mid range rpms like the performance tune.

Have you ever actually data logged your wonderful Bama tune? If so post up the logs so we can see them.
