I have decided to give the guys at Bama Chips a try at creating a custom tune for my 2005 V6 using my Predator and their xcal2 tunes.
I will put the Bama tune to a road test after Christmas when I take my holiday vacation. I am driving from Irvine CA. in Orange County to Fresno CA in Central Valley. This is usally a 3-1/2 to 4 hour drive with lots of passing trucks and other cars. After I finish visiting my inlaws in Fresno I am going to drive the car home taking the coast drive.
I figure this combination of different highways and streets should give me a good idea of the performance level of the tune from Bama Chips.
I heard so much good news from the owners of the xcal2 with the Bama Chips tunes that I wanted to see if I am missing out on a good thing.
I will deffinetly give you folks an update when I get back from the trip. This should give anyone that is still on the fence about buying a tuner for their new mustang a chance to hear from someone that has owned both brands of tuners and is not too biased about one brand or the other.
Oh I forgot I plan to take the car back to the Dyno shop where I got my predator dyno tuned first and compare the two tunes for RWHP, Torque, throttle respons and automatic transmission shifting. The results from my first tune gave me 197 RWHP with my MAC CAI and no other mods. The results from the new tunes will be printed or availible via e-mail for anyone interested.
Whish me luck I have faith that the guys at Bama Chips will make me a very proud owner of one hot 2005 V6 Mustang convertible.
