Yes definitely let us know. I just ordered an SCT from MPT website today. Didnt know there was a forum discount, but I can't wait. And to think I was willing to wait six months for a PHP tune. Sorry but the CTS is going back.

HOLY CRAP what a difference! I went from the SCT canned 87 tune to the 89 Performance tune that Mike did for me as that is the fuel I primarily use in the truck. A few very positive changes:
1. MUCH improved throttle response and quicker off the line as a result.
2. Shifts feel firmer and more crisp, but not uncomfortably so.
3. Downshifting on the freeway or to get around someone is MUCH faster than before and of course it pulls much harder when it does shift than before
4. I have only run 100 or so miles so I can't comment on the MPG, but it is virtually identical to what I was getting before.
5. Pulls like a freight train up to redline, no power drop off or weird spots in the powerband.
All in all a HUGE HUGE thank you to Mike for the amazing work done for me. I truly appreciate it and feel like this is the truck I've been waiting for since I bought it last year

I will say this about the dynos etc. My Innovative Extreme tune has some of the craziest dyno charts I have every seen, and although it feels great, it has to be at full throttle, and after 3000 rpm to get the full effect. This tune is just stupid from just off idle all the way well into the 6's.

You doing any TOWING specific tunes? I'm bout ready to jump ship with this one tune wonder. I'm out on the road with little to no internet at times and it's just not practical right now. SCT may be the answer to this issue. Do you sell the new android based set up, as this would work best for me?!

2. Yes they do towing tunes. I got an 87 Towing that I plan on using once I get the old Supra back up and running here in a couple weeks
