not sure it's really about worth the money. it's about needing it to make the car run to it's fullest potential. it's more need, than want, when modifying your car. at least more than just simple bolt-ons.
I guess the answer is...depends on what you plan on doing with your car. lol

there's more to be gained with an automatic, than a manual, since they can firm up the shifts and reduce torque management. So I think it's worth it for auto's. Manuals...not so much. That's with the trifecta. I have no experience with the IPF tunes.

This speaking of trifecta. I've never had an ipf tune so I can't comment on that one |

I don't know. I don't have headers (yet), but the tune certainly made my car shift better and launch harder. So I say it was worth it.

I agree that yes it made mine shift better but it didn't do anything for me at the drag strip where I was hoping it would make a difference. I could live without the firm shifts in daily driving and in fact do because I had my shifts left stock in drive and firmed up in sport. I use drive when driving around the city and sport when racing. So for the price, I don't know how worth it it is.

Yeah man just spray it directly into the chambers like I said before. You would get a nice deep clean that way. Also allows you to bypass the IM and booster hose steps. You should see some nice gains overall.
