What that car needs is a set of gears in the rear end to wake it up. Especially with it being an Auto. These mods may have cost you some off idle throttle response, but their benefit beyond that should be quite notable. The majority of your newly gained power will be seen in the mid and upper RPM levels. The only thing you can really do to pick up on the bottom end is add displacement, or some form of power adder. Barring that, a gear swap to take advantage of the newly available power is your best bet.

I have the SCT tune(Brenspeed)and am currently running the 93 octane tune. Here is a video of me at the drag strip. I launched between 1700-1800(the max without starting to spin before the green light. It feels like it was pulling very hard as I was getting near or better than some of the manual cars in the 60'. All on stock radials @ 33 psi. Of course I have the 4.10s

I have an SCT tune (Demolet) and even on the 87 octane version the car runs hard, these cars are pigs downlow anyway but I feel no loss from dead start.

I don't feel that at all...maybe it's the SCT tune, and whatever they did to the torgue management?

Doug at Bamachips is the one you want doing your tunes if you've got an auto....freaking amazing.
