Warranty aside.
I have had the trackey, the JLP hot rod cam idle tune, steeda 93 ghost idle tune and steeda 93 reg idle tune.
this is how I rank them
1. Steeda Reg idle tune
2. Trackey
3. Steeda Ghost Idle tune
4. JLP Hot rod idle tune
If I knew then what I know now. I would have just went with the Steeda Boss CAI and steeda tune from the start and skipped the others. Just my .02.
If you are worried about warranty get the trackey. if you are worried about it blowing up on the track (track with turns kinda tracks) then go with the trackey because you get a warranty. If you are like me and use it as a DD with drag racing here and there and dont care so much with the warranty becoming an issue go with the steeda set up.
Did you notice any better times at drag strip? Im thinking of getting a tune from Justin at VMP,
My best time at track is 12.22@144,43 stock except UCA and tires.
Thats what I said too till I got a steeda tune. If you dont want to add stuff like CAI or long tube headers etc then yes trackey it up. But really for what you are doing I still recommend getting a Steeda CAI and steeda tune. I am getting slightly better MPG the car is faster. Seems like a win win to me unless you are afraid of having to battle about warranty problems down the road.JonW said:It took me until the first time I leaned on my car hard taking it thru some of the twisty backroads we have around here to appreciate the red key fully. During those runs, I typically keep the tach between 3000-6000 RPM continuously. I can tell a distinct difference with the red key under those conditions. I like the extra exhaust note, the improved engine braking, etc. We don't have a road course close to where I live so I doubt my car will see much track duty. And I'm not a drag racer. So for those reasons I prefer the TracKey over an aftermarket tune. I suppose if I were a drag racer and was trying to squeeze every tenth out of my car the aftermarket tune might be appealing. Considering that Ford had to keep the TracKey within 50-state emissions compliance, provide a warranty, and keep it easy to use, I think they did a great job. I'm impressed also.
orng302 said:It does not void the warranty but it does change the terms of the extended warranty, which in the end means the money you spent on the extended warranty was for nothing. This is why I chose not to get the track key as I already had the extended warranty for 9 mos. when the track key was released.cbj5259 said:I purchased the extended bumper to bumper warranty (7years). Does this mean if I install trackey that it voids my extended warranty? If so...I want my money back, because I plan on installing trackey!
it only affects the powertrain portion.orng302 said:If you get the track key your warranty is now for 3yrs. from the date you drove your car off the dealers lot.
Yes you are correct but it does change the terms, so why pay the extra dollars for the extended warranty when you are not getting all that you paid for.Justin said:it only affects the powertrain portion.orng302 said:If you get the track key your warranty is now for 3yrs. from the date you drove your car off the dealers lot.
