I've had generic tunes 3 times(2 Au xr8's and one BA XR6T) on a completely stock car and you do feel the the difference. The XR8's from memory got an extra 10-12rwkw but the response was the biggest improvement. I got the custom tunes done once intake and exhausts were done.

Does it automatically tighten up the shifts in the auto?
