Delicious Etune current opinions
 

This should hopefully be my last part question for a while. I am coming to the end of my NA build and this is my last step. I am looking at getting the Delicious Stage 2 tune w/ E85 flex fuel kit.

My question is for anyone that has been running their off the shelf tune for a while. How is it holding up (would you recommend it and is it safe). Were there a lot of revisions that had to be made sending the logs back and forth? I know their site recommends the ace headers and i have the JDL so I am hoping since its NA there wont be much of a difference. Also the problems with logging it on 93 vs logging it on E85. I am going to use a local dyno to log but I know its going to be a pain to completely drain the tank to log E85 for them. I know some people bash etunes but there isnt anyone local I trust to tune this car.

Set up
-JDL UEL headers catless
-Perrin Overpipe
-Invidia Front pipe resonated
-Perrin 2.5in Catback resonated

Perrin Inlet and Intake. Not BigMAF

They've got their tune pretty well nailed down now. I honestly doubt you'll need any revisions, but if you do, they've always been, at the worst, reasonably quick to reply, and normally, down right quick.


I know this isn't the popular opinion, but I actually prefer a well tested e-tune than a one off tune. If I go to the local shop and have my car tuned it'll be optimized for that day, that elevation, that air pressure, etc. If I get a tune from someone like Delicious Tuning or Moto East, the tune will have been tested at a multitude of conditions. It's my opinion, that this could and should lead to an overall smoother running tune.


I did have one complaint with DT, I wasn't a fan of their throttle response mapping. It was close, just that the low speed, low load area seemed to dampen inputs too much. I found it made parking and backing up difficult. This is a very minor grip, BTW. I recently upgraded to an ACE header and got a new tune from DT, my god have they nailed the response in this tune. It's perfect.

I using Delicious. AMAZING service. Tune runs fine for me. Can't recommend them more

Theirs is tuned for 91. I guess with the flex fuel kit and everything 93 should be no issue because I have no where to go for 91 lol

Ive run everything from e85 to 91 in my car with the delicious tune never had a single issue. Idle with the ac on while running e85 likes to surge a bit and ive had a issue with cold start on e85 in cooler weather but they offered to make adjustments to it I just have not gotten them the log for them to do it so that can tell you kinda how much of a minor annoyance it was for me.

That rlly doesn't sound that bad. My biggest concern is knock I guess. As long as people aren't seeing that on ots from delicious I really am not too worried

Ive had 0 issues with any unsafe conditions

How many miles would you say you have been running it?

15k or more

Thanks man. U running ace headers? Stage 2? Did you get any revisions to it or the original work just fine for u?

I plan to get Ace headers. Have the front pipe and invidia n1 cat back now. Map im running is the off the shelf map with the ethanol kit.

I've been running Delicious flash n go tunes for nearly 3 years. During this time I've been boosted and NA, on both 91 and E85. The tunes have always been spot on for me.

been using there tune for over 2 yrs now. 1 yr of n/a and another year of FI tune. now im on the E85 FI tune.

i track and sort of daily my car so its reliable.

I got one of the first innovate SC and they had delivery problems so DT sent me a NA tune to use while I waited. the difference was amazing . then when I got the SC they sent me the new tune. I have been running it on street and track with no problems. they have sent revisions periodically with nice improvements.
