Depending, if you say mild, they may really hold back the car, just so youd notice more with an agressive tune....
being its at a gm bash... i dont think they would blow up your car with an agressive tune, and it wont be that much worse on gas (maybe when u get on it, but daily driving you shouldnt notice anything more) |

If they go for an agressive tune, they would probly up your spark and adjust AFR in PE mode, which is just when you have the throttle at 100%... so they might not touch your part throttle...

well im not running 60's so would it hurt my car if i went with the aggressive one?
|
Depends what size pulley...
I wouldnt spend the money on a agressive tune without 60s... if that helps.. |

i would be at a track all the time if one was within 150 miles of me and im in college i dont street race b/c one i hate dumb a** that do that and every one that wants to race have stock civics with CAI and think they can walk me so i dont even bother and the others that want to are trucks
What is with people with trucks always wanting to race? |
They think there big gay truck engines can beat a little sports compact..
some can, some.. just shouldnt try.. |

Hmm.. well.. a more agressive tune on 42.5s will make it a little bit more unsafe, but i mean, i run a 2.8 on 42.5s, but i could be pushing more power, but cant due to my injectors being over worked at higher rpms...
doing that constantly is bad, but for a few pulls on some gay hondas or something like that, youll be okay... I wouldnt trust a agressive tune on the smaller injectors though.. you can find em dirt cheap now, and will be wayy worth the money. |

Well.. if you go mild, you wont have to worry about the injectors...
go with mild unless you decide to up to 60 pound injectors, thats when i would go agressive. |
i would have to put the 60's in before the tune then huh? see the GM Bash is on feb 28th so thats when i get the tune i just didnt know if i should get a mild or an aggressive and i want to feel the difference but now im scaried that if dont have the 60's it might be bad i can get the 60's next pay cheek just i need to have them before the tune dont i?

If you don't race that much, you don't really have to worry about the "aggressive" tune. I'm willing to guess that it's just increased timing and a little fuel adjustment during WOT, not much will change during DD driving. I've known plenty of people running 2.9 on 42s - it's close to the limit of the injectors but very few have broken pistons due to it, especially if you don't race all that often.
If you have GMS2 on your car right now, you will probably gain a little MPG, since a specialized tune should yield better results than a generitune. I'm not sure if he'll even touch your DD driving though. BTW, what year are you? If you're an 06, you might be able to have him send you both sets of files and I can flash the aggressive for the track, see if it's dangerous, then if you want flash you to the mild. I have no idea if he'd be down for that, but I'd ask. Otherwise, he could send the other guy two tunes, I could still scan down the track a few runs, and if you don't like what you see you could ask him to flash you down to the mild. |
i wont vote but i i will leave a comment. you dont go to the track or street race... wtf do you want a tune for... IMO leave your car stock

Like I said, see if he'll send the guy both before making a solid decision. The worst he can do is say no, but if he sends both we can see how high your injectors are getting and if you're seeing any knock.
His version of aggressive may be different than some others, but I assume he would never send a tune that would blow someone's car up, even under the guise of an "aggressive tune" |
