Well, it can't hurt

Depending on how much you drive, it can easily pay for itself

If you can keep your foot out of it, the performance tune actually gives better mileage according to some other members. It's when you hotrod the performance tune that your mileage decreases.

Depends...sometimes you'll have it in hand 48 hours later...or it could be up to two weeks


He's been pretty slow on my last order I just put in but I think he's been swamped with orders. Bob pretty much runs that place by himself.

no 85 tune to my knowledge only 87 tow-haul and 91 perf tune unless you have a 08+ then you can have a 93 perf tune....but anyway i have had better mpg's with 91 perf tune and the raw power is there when needed ...but i really could care less about mpg's if i did i'd be drivin a honda or something small....although i do drive normal ....sometimes....and avg about15 city and about18-19 hwy....if my foots not near the radiator....
