Cam tune for Bama even better with JLT, holy crap. Unfortunately it sounds like the lope is reduced further though.

Well, I can tell you that Steeda stated that I would Be getting a refund. So if that's what you're asking. I may try Lund. If they ever have a website and active Facebook.

By the way, I've contacted Lund Racing, and if the price is agreeable, I'll also be testing them and reporting back. I figured, there is enough interest that people might want to know who is best in regards to the cam idle tunes, as they are unique to tune. Otherwise, any of the tuners can put out a great standard idle tune.

I have the Steeda cam tune and it never stalls. BUT, when I let somebody else drive it they always stall it. I think it's because they are not used to it and have sloppy shift points. Maybe you just needed to not mess with the tune and get used to it?

GL....lol

I have been waiting 2 months for a good tune. Communication is definately not their strong side.

Ask me how I know.

My correction, $225 for a cam tune. Included would be a second tune however I want it.

That's to much just for the sound, just go get real cams! I'm actually thinking about getting some, really tempting after reading the newest issue of 5.0!

^and then like $800-$1000 to install the cams
But I'd still take the real deal. Those Comp Cams in 5.0 sound like a good deal.

You do know real cams don't just give sound......

And it's alot more than $1200!

And who the hell would even consider getting cams that hasn't had a tuner since the day it left the delership?
