from stock to 93 octane i noticed the difference using both tunes at the track and the tune wasnt that great either
justins will be better

its a smart investment and one that you will use all the time... with every little mod you can tweak your tune a little and make your car just that much better over what it would have been with out the tuner

honestly i don't know the difference between the 2 and 3...

YES IT IS!

something that'll give you more bang for your buck
NITROUS

waste gate spring
pulley

those to will give you the best bang for your buck up to 100rwhp+ but you need to spend money to be able to use those

Chris your sig: Are you running a supercharger? Turbos hiss not whistle. Thanks. /end thread jack.

MORE BANG FOR YOUR BUCK THAN A TUNER:
Gears (but kinda ghey without a tlok)
Nitrous
Waste Gate Spring (gotta spend money first)
Pulley (gotta spend money first)
Boost Controller (gotta spend money first)
