From what I have read it is the same as the 91 tune but with less timing in it. I think I saw that in the SC sticky but I am not positive.

The tow tune is pretty much the same as the 91 performance tune as far as the engine is concerned, just slightly less timing advance. The tow tune also "tames" the shifts so at WOT you don't get the lurching the performance tune has. I've noticed the tow tune also guzzles more gas than the performance tune.

Never really played with the towing tune when I had the sc, I mainly did the 87 and 91 and got the best results with the 91 performance tune.

What was the temp out when you did your run, what elevation are you? 1/4 mile in 16.2 / 0-60 time in 7.8 sounds a little slow for not having any tq management and 3.92's.
