When people say it's a night and day difference it's really true not just in a bit of power increase but just overall drivability you feel power in every gear. Also super easy to connect and install. If you're seriously considering it talk to @Cross I think he still might be able to get them at a good price.
I can I just have been staying out of it as I am A) Busy trying to get this swap to come together and the latest harness build debacle is not helping, and B) It's turned into a debate more than once so I honestly stopped giving a damn.

I still get them at cost and you get the bonus dollars/points they normally provide towards say the header, etc.

I used it and EcuTek and both are great in my opinion, both are also meant for different goals. When I went FI it was clear EcuTek was the better platform and it has gotten better with each update.
Now that I am in the middle of an LSx Swap I can say I will be selling my EcuTek setup right after I finish confirming everything I need to change in the factory PCM is done so the car still functions as it would stock. However at this point that looks to mainly be just a few minor things as I will be changing the Cluster's Check Engine light to take a signal from the LS PCM.

Anyway back on point, yes I can get you one if you want it at my Dealer cost. If you want one let me know through PM and I will call them and set it up.
On OFT the car was considerably different, it really made a difference in how the car felt and the more bolt on's I threw at it the better it felt. I also tweaked mine a few times because I mess with everything. I can honestly say if I had controlled myself and not gone turbo the car on E85 with Header and full bolt on's was a blast, and a great daily driver. Was it the fastest, no but it was a hell of a lot of fun.

As of right now, the Grimmspeed Tunes are only available via email. You need to email or PM Shiv@Openflash to get the tune. Don't know if it will be put on their website for download any time soon.

@Cross - Pm'd

As for everyone else, Thank you for the information. I was trying to just extrapulate some information from people whom have used it but this is more than expected. Thank you so very much.

I have a dealer here in Tucson, not sure if you are in Phoenix or Tucson. I know there were a few guys who knew where in Phoenix as well.

I know a lot of us went with ECUtek tunes and was curious to see who has OFT and how they like it.

My basics: lightly modded with bolt-ons (I have an intake only at this time) and I have a modded snorkle which will (and has) changed the way my vehicle takes in air. I am aiming to get closer to that 200hp to the floor marker and know that I can put at least 180hp to the floor with this. (Mustang Dyno, I came in at 163hp).

Future mods: Only exhaust is planned at this time due to my aiming to start school and live on loans for a couple years. Will see as more is affordable.
Agreed with every point made thus far about OFT.

Just wanted to add, if I can ever make it out to a meet, you are welcome to see the differences for yourself.
