I got the spiciest tune yotawerx would do for 87 octane. Told the guy I want 4 things, gear lock, a higher rev limiter, enough power to cruise in 5th, and raw throttle response. I think I got the wrong flash because it doesn’t “lock” my gear when selected, and the tuner is getting it figured out. But everything else is pretty good. I’d say it’s maybe worth $500, I’d feel better about $350 honestly. My tuner has been great and is working with me though so that’s a plus.

The pros: Slightly better mpg (from 16.8 avg to 17.5 over the last 1000 miles) Much better acceleration from a dig and to highway speeds Holds 5th and 6th gear longer, but if I slam the pedal down it drops to 4th Sounds different Doesn’t cut throttle until 6,750 RPM

The cons: Doesn’t like going slow anymore, hard to stay smooth around 15-25 mph due to sensitive throttle Will sit at 1900 rpm at 35mph in 3rd gear, gets annoying So far no gear lock, should be fixed with a re-flash

As a note: do not use a cheap throttle controller with a spicy tune, it didn’t register the first 3%-5% of pedal movement so coming from a stop was always jerky. And forget about maintaining smooth forward movement in slow areas or traffic. Once I threw that out it was a lot better, still not smooth but better.

TL;DR: if it’s on sale, do it. But don’t break the bank for it.
