I looked into getting one of your tunes before but was undecided. Would you recommended the auto cal tune?

If you have the 6spd transmission, the AutoCal would be your best bet (especially for future tune updates). Or you can see if Justin is coming close to you for an inperson tune.

I don't have the 6 Speed trans. So is there any benefit in the traditional tune vs the EFI Data logging (that's what I was meaning earlier). Anyone have experience with both?

Also if you get the traditional tune what kind of relearn procedure is required?

With the traditional tune, you give us specs on your vehicle, and we build a tune based on our experience with similar vehicles. You will need to have a crank relearn performed (any shop with a Tech II or similar can do this and will charge between $50-$100).

With the cable tune, you will perform datalogs on your vehicle, of which we use to develop your tune. We can take your exact vehicle's driving style, and use of modifications into account. So the tune is more specific. Also, the cable can be used to perform the crank relearn, eliminating the need to find someone to do it for you.

I have the airaid jr and a spectre panel filter in the stock box and a catback. No decrease in mileage or performance.
