I'm going to have Steeda do an SCT tune on their Dyno on my '03 GT and wondered if anyone has had this done and the results.

Got my SCT Xcal2 with mail order tune by Tim @ ModularPowerhouse for $399.
It will be here Monday.
I'll let you know how it goes!

it's really hard to tell you what your going to gain when we know nothing about your car. if it's stock it wont be to much. if you have cams and are driving around untuned it could be a lot

I have an Excal2 on my Lightning. Very effective. If you can find the right guy/place,

Yeah, on your SC lightning and my SC Cobra there's good gains to be made, but on a stock N/A Mustang it will be a waste of his money.

picked up almost .3 in the quater after my tune.. weather and driving surely had its effect on my times.... but i know it helped alot. I had UD's and gears at the time.

Of course his results will depend on his mods...but I think the variable he was asking about is 'Steeda'...and people's experience with their tuning.
How much are they charging and what does the price include?

Yes. You should see some decent gains from a custom dyno tune with those mods.

Question is, what does Steeda charge for one?
