SCT Tuner Results
 

Just got back from a test run with the 87 street tune installed. Let me tell you my shift points feel alot more firm and I can tell it has some more get up and go. Im going to have to wait till I get down to a quarter tank to try out the 89 performance tune.

Over all Im quite happy with the results. Give me some more seat time with it and im sure ill get a better feeling of it.

still not sure why i put this in the lounge, woops. Its been a long week/day

after some more seat time I love the way street tune handles not to mention Im also getting better MPG..

Mods can you please move this to General Tech? Thanks.

Not really a tech deal.


Why no 93 tune? screw that 87 bullshit. I get better hwy mpg with the 93 tune in mine for some reason lately.

because the 93 octane is more expensive. I may end up using the 89 performance tune more often. I haven't decided yet. Im waiting for my tank to get below a quarter before I switch Octanes.

Finally loaded the 93 octane Race Tune, Holy shit quite a big difference. If im not careful its going to get me in trouble haha.

What mods do you have done?
Auto?

exhaust and auto

What's your MPG so far?

wait till you throw a supercharger on it lol. But seriously dont. Waste of $ IMO. If I had to do it all over again. I would have stopped at tune, exhaust, cai, and suspension work.

well ive been driving 70 miles a day @ 70mph been getting 22mpg alot better than before the tune.

I hope that a tune will fix my problem.
I get like 10-12 highyway, but if I remember correctly it was 11. Not sure, but it's not no where near mots people. :/

just be careful with the race tune. Its addicting haha

I'm a hot head anyways. haha
What kind of difference do you feel?
Because my bike is way faster then my car. haha

There has to be something seriously wrong with your car if you are only getting 10-12 mpg on the highway. I highly doubt a tune will fix that. I get better than that on the street. I can average 24-25mpg on the highway with the occasional romp with the supercharger. You got a problem somewhere.

I completely agree. I've been doing a lot of highway/interstate driving lately in Spooky and with a 93 octane tune, I'm running the best gas mileage I've ever gotten, which is 18.5 mpg and it just keeps going up. I'm hoping to clear 19 mpg soon. :)

I can't figure out what it is.

I've done the spark plugs, wires, oil filter, oil, air filter, fuel filter, PCV Valve, Distrubitor(cap/rotor), new tires (275-40-17/255-40-17), alignment, breaks, rotors, tranny oil, diff oil, oil breather, new belt. I think that's it.
Other stuff that's been done that I know of. Flow Masters, no cats, 02's are hooked up, but not sure if they're any good. Removed Air Silencer and the passenger Fenderwell is missing. 3 1/2 inch exhaust tips at 2 feet long. 5.0 Short Throw Shifter. All around tinted windows.
I will be removing the smog pump and adding a shoter belt, I just did my clutch (plate, disk, throwout bearing and pilot bearing) not to long ago, did my oil pan gasket yesterday, had to get a new fan/shroud, Upper Control Arms should be here tomarrow. More stuff coming, but not yet.

I'm half asleep, barely can keep my eyes up, sorry if it don't make sense.

I have no idea, but somethings not right, or you just don't know how to calculate your mpgs correctly. I shouldn't be doubling your mpg with a V8, no cats, long tubes, and a supercharger on a 91 tune.

haha mine is a GT as well. LOL
This was for May (birthday month :D)
13.435 Gallons on 145 Miles
13.621 Gallons on 141 Milles
13.266 Gallons on 150 Miles
12.760 Gallons on 151 Miles

You should be getting much higher mpg than that. Unless your car is running extremely rich, a tune won't fix that. You should be getting at least 17-20 on the highway.

when i had my 6 banger mustang, the tune i put on it made it feel a lot different. i swear by SCT tuners. :)

I'm gonna throw a tuner in with a 4.10 gear sometime. That should make it feel like an all out beast.

Again is everyone saying -- "justin at VMP" or Just AM a livewire?

^^^all out beast lmfao. It's a damn v6. Lol you one of the people who prolly think a gt is fast. Haha

Well i take that last statement back. The 2011 gt is pretty damn quick.

Maybe I should add, -- "compared to how it was."

Dude, I know GT's arent fast. They just sound good.

And yes 2011gts are ungodly. Evolution has a 10 second auto 5.0 now.

Without FI. :D

Yes we know, SntBako has been posting the videos. And i don't know why you guys are talking about, but my GT is fast.
