was wondering what would be the best thing to get my car tuned once i add the 4.10's. I have a guy locally who has a dyno and would love to tune my car. I wont have to buy the SCT tuner or just go with Mo's tune? with the local tune its $450 plus i get pulls on the dyno. 4.10's have been ordered :banana2:

theres no doubt Lidio knows his stuff from what ive read. Only thing im concerned about is its basically a generic tune because i cant actually be at his shop and have him tune my car on a dyno.

^^^What he said^^^

Plus, it's nice to have the handheld for pulling codes, ect.

Unless you have a power adder (blower or extensive engine work) a dyno tune does not really benefit a n.a car with just. 4:10's . Mos tune is derived from a marauder on a dyno. These cars are not mustangs as alot of tuners think

Both are good. I've been to Mos twice, and he is active on the boards daily and is more than helpful outside of business hours if needed. Lidio is still a fine tuner , I just have not dealt with him myself. I don't believe he frequents here very much.

Lidio's tune is a good one, in fact I have it in my car. Like above said Lidio infrequently is on the MM board and Marty from Mo's is here almost everyday. I have no experience with Mo's tune yet but will most likely be putting it in our 2nd MM. Mo's may be quicker to respond if you wish to make changes to his tune if needed.
Either way both tunes I feel won't disappoint as the stock tune is a disaster.

Not true.

Each car / engine is different and to get the best out of your car / engine, even if stock, a dyno tune by a competent tuner will get the most HP and drive-ability for you.

Definitely get a Mo's tune. Even his "generic" one is better than stock.

That may be true. But I'm not spending dyno rates to tune a stock car. I'll go for a already proven tune .

Really, it's the transmission tune that helps these cars the most. I wouldn't want to drive a tuned motor on a stock tranny program. With Mo and Lidio (Lidio's came with my MM) you get driveability plus the tuner for tweaks and codes. No brainer.

Marty is awesome! Really takes a lot of his time to make sure you are happy. Gave me tons of free advice before I even spent a dime with him.

Agree on this.
As a newbie, I bought a Lidio tune w/handheld with options for 3.55, 4.10, 91 and 93 octane.
I had 4.10 and flashed in the tune - it ran great and the shifting was amazing! The shifting was the best part.
Lido could not support tuning for additional mods, such as headers, blower etc without the car on his dyno. Makes sense.
I later had Mo's install my blower and headers, dyno tune the car, and they spent hours making sure my shifting was EXACTLY to my liking after the sale.
Having utilized both vendors, I'm happy now ;)
