Actually, the budget tune DOES include the select-a-tune feature and everything else. The only difference is there is NO data logging with it, and we only offer it if the car has light bolt-ons.

It has been very popular with the Solstice/Sky owners who kept their cars either stock or almost completely stock but wanted a power bump.

Interesting. Because I want to roll with my warranty, this tune sounds like the thing for me. Since I was pretty much considering only putting on the 3 mentioned things.

So given that I'd only be putting on light bolt ons anyways, this tune sounds sweet. Can someone briefly tell me what data logging is exactly? I just got my balt a few weeks ago

Datalogging is when you log your car on a normal drive with mixed spirited driving. (YOu can do this on a dyno too) You save the log, send it to vince. He looks at it, and maximizes the potential of your car based off the data collected. Then you reload the tweaked file, and your car is now faster, and running better.

Hmm. Interesting, but if I'm going light bolt ons, there wouldn't really be much to maximize im assuming?

every car is different, through my experiences every now and then one is good on the first tune. But most need a tweaking. Also depending on your altitude different tunes react differently. If you put an intake on, you will need a log and retune.
