Did you order just a tune, or a CAI+tuner package?

For right now, just the tuner. I had to decide on one item, best bang for the buck. I chose the tuner. I plan on getting the JLT carbon fiber intake soon, and then the Steeda Tri-Ax likely after that.

I got the shipment confirmation last night. My tuner should be here tomorrow, and I can't wait! Skip shift delete is going to blow my mind, I just know it.

Well, I got my tune today. I'll need to talk with Brenspeed tomorrow about a couple of issues.

I started off with the 93 Race tune, and when I got on the throttle hard, it pinged hard. I limped into a Dunkin Donuts parking lot, and loaded up the 93 Street tune instead. Drove that for 45 miles or so, ran it decently hard a few times, all was perfect. First gear - forget about it. 100% useless, at least with my stock rubbers and this 20-25 degree weather.

Whenever I was rolling off a light in first, shift to second, and floor it around 30 mph, usually there would be a second of slip and then it would hook up hard. Now, doing the same thing, complete mayhem. It's like the tires just decided not to even bother, as it just doesn't hook up at all. Again, probably largely to do with my tires and weather, but still. Awesome!

I forgot to ask for skip shift delete, so I need to get that fixed along with the 93 Race tune. Another guy here mentioned the rev's hanging more, and I definitely noticed that as well. It's terribly annoying, probably a good thing for a race track, but on the street it's kind of a nuisance to me, and I'm going to ask about getting that changed if possible.

All in all, the tune is fantastic. There is so much power everywhere, with so much more torque down low. Once I get the bugs worked out, it'll be perfect.
