Default Evolution Performance?

Ok so i see that everyone here talks about american muscle and Bama and tillman but what about evolution performance. they have a lot of badass stuff and their tunes seem to be good since they have a shelby in the 7s. So i was wondering what everyones thoughts were on evolution performance and if any one has gotten a tune from them?

The Shelby in the 7's isn't running a stock computer (unless they put the LS coils on it for appearance). Hence it has nothing to do with their ability to tune a car. Huge difference in tuning a car with a Big Stuff 3 on it and tuning a stock mustang computer. Not saying their stuff is bad, never tried it. Just saying, don't assume because of some of the cars they run in adds they can write a tune.

That's just my .02!

+11111 on that, i had their tune and thought it was great.. Then i heard horror stories of people blowing their motors with just intake/tune.. Weather it ran too lean or too rich and clogging factory cats, i was nervous and immediately changed over to Tillman Speed.. Tillman's tune was night and day difference! Never looked back since.

I would say Tillman, Brenspeed or Bama are the ones to go with.. Then again i have heard good stories about American Muscles tuning too.

If you want a tune from the person that does the tuning for the 7 second GT500 go to lundracing.com (his name is Jon Lund)

If you want a tune from a jackass named fred that works at Evolution then order a mail-order tune

Rule of thumb, never let fred touch your car

I used to have a Evo tune(but it was a canned tune). Ran a bit on the lean side. I now have a Tillman dyno tune, so it wouldnt be fair to compare the two.

but with regards to the Tillman tune(apart from a slight throttle code issue(which CR fixed by the next morning) when I first got it, the response of their dyno tune is just...mmmmmmm sexy! The engine runs REAL smooth and acceleration is smooth as well.
