Like I said, I have experience with nor have I heard any reviews on them. However, what I do know is that tune would not only do everything a shift kit does, but it adds power too.

Have you experienced any drawbacks to tuning? I worry about running too rich or lean or something that will begin the domino effect of things needing repair from a different modification...
Personally, I had problems with detonation on the BAMA 91 race tune, but I live in a part of Texas that sees 100+ degree summers and a miserably 6000-6500 density altitude (both of which are an engines worst nightmare). Tunes also add a nice amount of ponies which is always a good thing
