In my opinion, on a stock car there is really going to be little difference between any of them. Where the differences show up is when the car starts getting serious mods. At my level I chose Bama and so far have been really pleased. They replied to every single email I sent them, sent me updates the tunes are very good. I've had several tuned cars before and have some idea of a good smooth tune and a not so good tune. I only have an off road X on a otherwise stock 2014 Auto. This summer I'll get some #47 injectors and try there e85 tune out I'm moving closer to an e85 station so it'll be way more convenient for me to try it. They may disappoint me but who knows I know there 87 performance and 93 race tunes are very seamless for me car really drives almost stock until you nail the throttle. The transmission shifting is really good. On the 87 it's firm and positive but not harsh at all around town, the 93 bangs 1-2 really good and 2-3 is very firm and positive as well. For me 93 is unless on the street I can't hook at all with my current stock P neros.
imo not that im a expert. If you are auto and money is no issue i would go for a dyno tune just for adjusting shift characteristics for daily driving. I just had mine done and it made a world of difference. If i could do it over a dyno tune would have been my first choice. That,s way i voted other
NONE of the above ...AED FTW
Careful, he might try to get you fired if you ever switch tuners lol

Lol, I was waiting for this... The man might have questionable personality traits but he does know his 5.tunes.
I am also in a similar predicament. I am somewhat surprised to hear such positive feedback on lund tunes for the A6 cars. I had always seen people recommend VMP or Mr. Rousch were the only ways to go for A6 tunes. Might be worth a try this spring. Does Lund normally require a log before sending a finalized version of the tune?
Well guys I know I was bashing bama in my other post, but I'm still waiting on my lund revision from before Christmas. I ended up having to switch back to bama so I could get a revision right away (next day). Actually the car feels the same with my bama tune. I think I just got a bad bama tune for my revision for the boss intake. I'm very happy and impressed with my bama tune.
I'm not gonna sit here and say Bama has better tunes than Mike, Sean, Lund, or VPM. However, I will say I got a Bama tune in 2011 because I wanted a tune but back then all you read about was #8 threads. At that time Bama offered a warranty if Ford denied your warranty for a blown engine due to a bad tune so I went that route and have free tunes for life with the car. I will admit the first two tunes I had weren't great drivability wise. WOT was fine but bogged and shifted up way too fast unless you were 100% in the gas. Got a "new" tune from them when I heard they got new tunes and it was about the same but when Paul from Torq came on board everything changed. Was able again to get another free tune. I read great things about them (v2 tune) and since it was free for me I got one. Took about 3 days. The first one was very noticeably better. A huge improvement in how the car behaved but had kind of soft shifts for a race tune at WOt to me so I called them for a revision and the guy I talked to just said "I know what you want" when I told him it shifted too soft but I didn't want anything crazy. A day or two later I got a revision and it was perfect and the car runs like a champ. Then probably 6 months later I needed an OR tune and a day or two later had that. I'm super happy with the Bama tune I have. It's a whole new ball game with them now vs like 2013 tunes before Paul.
Has anyone else tuned your car before other than Bama? Bama made their "#8 warranty" cause they were the main tuner that was blowing the engines, that's why their lawyers had them protect their ass with the warranty.
I wouldn't let Bama tune my radio. They can't even get a Cobra Jet car to run properly lol.
