It really depends on the dyno, but I voted street tune anyway. If you get an awd Mustang dyno tune it is supposed to simulate a street tune with load, but I don't think there is any subsitute for the real thing. That being said, trying to road tune and watch for cops is a bi tch.

I chose dyno tune, but the correct way, IMHO, is to dyno tune and then street tune, for max gains and to account for real world conditions ... remember dyno tune is only an approximation of real road driving ...

Dyno tune... Unless you are making an insane amount of hp and cant hook up on the dyno. But if you dyno tune you have the ability to see your power and torque curves and when you make fuel and timing adjustments the changes will be noticable in the graphs

Gentlemen, before you can rationally ask what method of tuning is best, first you must ask what are your GOALS in tuning?

From the customer's prespective, perhaps some of you members can comment about what YOUR top priorities are in a professional tune and what your objectives are.

I belive that only after you know what your goal is will you be able to find the most effective path to reach that objective.

Lets have some input
