hmmm... Think I might go with Boss/CAI and h-pipe. I just looked at the H/X comparison over on svtp....interesting.

I went with the Lethal H pipe because I prefer that sound. I'll make up for the 4hp I will lose not going with the X with boost. lol.

Well 4 HP is trivial. I like the hpipe note. Thats what I had on my 2000gt and mach1.

Ive run Bama, AED, VMP, and been dyno tuned by True Street you really cant go wrong with either. Its more or less what works best for your situation.

Dyno tune is always a plus because you get what no email tuning offers, in person knowledge and experience from said tuner plus an included graph for your ego :). Only downside is this is usually the more expensive way to go.

Email tuning is great with the right company and is a cheaper option, but unsafe when logging high speed pulls to send back to your tuner with each revision. With that said you have to understand your tuners situation, hes not there to scout or diagnose any possible issues your car may have, he is simply looking at a log so it would be on you report back findings. Its could take 2-3 days of back and forth before you have a completed tune.

I had a BAMA tune. Car never ran right. I spent 8+ weeks and probably 20 tunes with them, and it never ran good. Finally took it to a local place and in an hour it was perfect.

Its hit and miss sometimes i guess.

My first tune in my 11 was through Bama, i had no problems and the car was quite the dyno queen.

Motor ran ok but the tranny wouldn't shift. If you have a manual they maybe ok but their tranny stuff sucked.
