Custom Tunes, Who to Choose?


Guys how do you decide were to get your custom Tunes from? I know thier are Bama,Brenspeed, VMP and Tillman im sure there are others. The thing is you hear really good things about all of them but also a few negetive things. What did you base your decisions on?

BBR has a lot of great custom tunes as well. Some of which they worked hand and hand with SCT to design.

I will be going with Brenspeed simply because if I have a problem with my tune I want somebody to talk to about it. Not sit around for a couple of days waiting for Doug to respond to my email.

Doug has been extremely responsive with me. Brenspeed told me they couldn't help me once I had my cam in. Doug was eager to help me get my car running well.

I vote BAMA!

You could always check out tricktuners as well. He is a vendor on here so you know where to hunt his ass down. People that use him see to be happy.

I went with Bama, from all the input I've read Doug seems to know what he's doing. If I have to wait a little longer for his tunes, so be it. But I'm in Germany (not much longer) so my wait is longer than most.
