Probably looking at 5 years on my BB tune. Bought the tune with the supercharger bundle. Love them both, installed the tune first and it made the truck feel like 500 pounds lighter. With the SC, it is awesome. I have reached back to BB several times over the years for tweaks and what not with no problem. Takes me longer to collect that data log that they need than to get the retune.

On the exhaust, I went with headers with cats and the Borla Sport exhaust. Absolutely a beautiful burble when idling and cruising. Get on it and it roars. Guaranteed not to drone and it does not. I actually did the headers first with the stock exhaust while waiting for the catback kit, and the drone was unnerving. Of course, I had cut off the resonator in the back.

Just a quick update. I've only had the tune installed for a couple days, but so far it's exactly what I wanted. V4 mode is gone, throttle response is instant and the tranny shifts softly when cruising but shifts like you want it too when you get on it. It makes me want to add performance parts.

Have you made a u-turn with it yet?

So what are the numbers on these tuners, unless I missed it I didn't see actual data on what they provide other than that generic description. I'm a guy that likes to know what he's paying for how much extra hp, torque is it providing, what's the decrease in quarter mile times with the extra power and faster/higher shift points ?
Inquiring minds want to know..lol
