Thanks for the insightful replies guys!! But in my case if you can only afford one now the tuner or the pedalmax/pedal commander what would you choose? Can they even work together? And i have been considering springs as well. And yeah i would love to come up for a dyno! What would it cost though?
I'd get a tuner and depending on what want in a turer? I have a SCTx4 from SCT.com direct. I like the fact I could program the menu RPM's from idle to redline and if you have a automatic increasing the shifting firmness from factory to +25%. The difference between a tuner and PedalMAX as far as throttle response is the tuner programs the ECU and the PedalMAX increase the voltage to the throttle body. A tuner and PedalMAX work very well together in both in acceleration and over all performance.

If you do a tune you will not need the pedalmax at all if the tune is done right the lag is gone. you want to feel like you have a new car again go with the tune, the GT take off exhaust for better sound and an oil catch can to keep your intake clean most tuners will give you an adjusted tune for free or a slight cost when you add other mods to your car so the tune will use the new mods go with the tune you will not belive what it can do for you

I just wish I had been able to afford a steeda tune but when you are retired oh well
Mark, I disagree with you on the not needing a PedalMAX if you get a tuner. Believe it or not you still have lag with just the tuner. The tuner and pedalMAX work independent from each other. The tuner programs throttle response at the ECU, the pedalMAX increase response at the throttle body they work well together.

Maybe I am just lucky then because the tune woke my car up where I really feel that I do not need a peddelmax or the BBK TB and its fun to drive
