How much better did your car perform after the tune?

It feels like the car's potential has been unlocked. crisper shifting, better throttle feel and feels great through the power band. I have four different maps that get more aggressive the higher it is. Map 3 allows me to put in race fuel (which is a lot of fun) and map 4 is for extreme heat (I go to school in Arizona) so there is no knock.

Reading this showed me how quick a build can change. In august, I was preparing for a n/a build with my lth from either ppe, fast intentions, or the z1 combo. Now I'm working towards a single turbo build.
Seb is a real cool dude to talk to and I can't wait to make the switch. Ecutek>uprev.

Hey guys it been so long since I was tuned and I don't remember what the car is supposed idle at? Thank butt idle feels low, the car is idling @600( third line) RPMS, but I thought my tune was higher than that? Just feels like it's low.

Hi Gents,
Like some others in this thread I had a miata with ECUtek and loved it. Luckily I still have my ECUTek cable.
So, that means the cost of an e-tune comes down a bit, however, my car is stock (2015 s Limited, so it does have the rear muffler for what it's worth??). What sort of potential improvements should I expect? I'm tempted to do it for the throttle response alone after the dealership told me "It drives as designed" but extra power is never a bad thing

You're not going to see much of a gain. Not until you start doing modifications, starting with bolt on. Get an exhaust/intake before.

I should receive my Takeda today, and plan to install this weekend. The only component I'd like to add before a tune would be the FI HFC's, but that's not going to happen within the first half of the year (maybe not until taxes next year). I'd already contacted Visconti about a tune. However, I'm now wondering if I should contact Sebastian instead (http://specialtyz.com/shop/default/3...mming-kit.html).
