Default NELSON TUNE FOR 3.9L

Hi Steven, Thanks for contacting us!

We do supply a tune for your vehicle and they turn out great!

The tune will optimize the a/f ratio and timing tables. We also provide a nice transmission tune that will give the car quick shifts during normal driving and firm at wot.

The cost is $375 and includes free updates, however, we’d have to have your pcm sent in unless you know of a few more customers that might be interested, then I’ll buy some cores. We just don’t get a lot of demand for this car, yet.

Thanks,
Allen

This is the email I got back from Allen at Nelson Performance. I've only heard good things about them. Let me know what you guys think. I know us 3.9 guys are looking for new parts all the time, just to damn hard to find.

Definitely looking at getting that... but really, for a buck and a quarter more you get the tuner to modify the car... I wonder if this would be more cost effective overall? I mean being able to re load the stock programming and all?
