Default 2008 Mustang GT/CS Ordered an SCT Tuner w/Tunes from AM

Been debating this for awhile, whether to wait until I got a supercharger and then get it tuned all at once, or get the tuner in the meantime.
So I got myself a Christmas Present, (I'll wrap it and tell the wife it's from the kids)

Anyone else get the tunes thru American Muscle/Bama?

Experiences Please?

LJS

got something new up your sleeve? lol they do have a dyno

And i haven't used AM's tunes. I have tunes directly from Chris Rose the head of the tune dept at AM. He uhhh... well hasn't exactly treated me right but i feel bad speaking ill of him. He has attempted to make good on the tune but still to this day 6 months later i'm not dialed in properly.

Just wanted to update on this. It was a start-up flare issue. Other than that, the car ran very smooth. I took care of this for him a few days back and hopefully it fixes that annoying start up.

I'm actually on the tuning R&D side of things. Mike Wilson heads up the Bama division.

To answer the OP, you're gonna love your tunes! Report back and let us know how they are!
