probably the only way to get a true result is to test in as close to identical conditions possible before and after the tune.

i did the AA tune in march, along with a k&n drop-in/charcoal delete and added aFe scoops. recently i upgraded to eurotek lm reps, 18x8.5/9.5 with 225/255 tires. each wheel/tire combo is several pounds lighter that the stock 17x7/7.5 sport pkg rims my car came with. i would be my acceleration is even greater with the other mods and new/lighter wheels.

but its not a tire-burner. my nephew has a mazda 3 "speed" with upgraded software and new turbo. great in a straight line, but cant use that power to turn. i wanted a car that can turn, too!
