Edit: I have an Automatic and I cannot get a speedcal - will the Dyno Tune also make up for my 3.90 gears making the speedo correct? Thanks guys.

Are they in the mail? Everytime I hear someone asking for an update on them, they wind up being pushed back another 3 months, or "still on backorder."

And as for the tune, forget chips. A chip can't adapt like the computer can. When you use a chip for your tune, it basically hijacks the computer and runs what it's programmed to run, not learning and adapting as much as the computer can. For peace of mind, I would much rather run it off of the computer.

Naturally aspirated, I guess a chip would be fine, since there's not at much at stake. With boost and a stock bottom end, I would want every safety net I could get.

Plus, with a chip you can't correctly communicate with the ECU (inspections, dealer work). So you would have to deactivate or unplug your chip, which also means going back to a stock tune on a blown car. I would be too scared to even turn the car on.
