I finally installed the 91 performance tune from vmp tuning and all I have to say is.....OOOHHH SHHH!!!!TTTT

I turned on my engine and I heard my nieghbor's truck alarm go off, I slightly punched on the gas and it did a one wheeley wonder. Shifts were better than expected, I thought i was doing 40, I looked at my speedometer and Im going 60mph. I noticed something very different, WHERE IS THE FRIGGEN THROTTLE LAG? I think this tune is worth it, any one else had better experiences?

Ok, I'm not a professional mechanic, BUT (someone correct me if I wrong) adding a tune to your car I don't believe would be a large enough modification to suddenly set off the neighbors car alarm. Or would it? I don't have one so I really don't know from experience, I just don't see it making that much of a difference sound wise.
On the other hand, nice to hear another possitive opinion on tuners.

well it just so happen that a little child frolicking along on his bicycle was scared when suddenly the car he was just riding past roared to life and crashed into the neighbors truck, setting off the alarm

tunes CAN do that you know...

I have a single flowmaster 40 series, thinking about switching over to dual magnaflows. but normally I have to pass by my nieghbors truck to hear the "cry wolf" alarm set off. I like my tune, i hear my tire chirp during 2nd and 3rd gear shifts

On an auto, a tune/CAI is worth the money for no other reason than the reduced throttle lag. The add'l HP is an extra benefit!

Yup, I remember when I first tested my VMP tune out, I didn't get to the o-sh** part until it shifted the first time. VMP is a really good company.
