Help with LSA decision!

I am getting a TR 224/224 and need some advice on LSA, there are no tuning shops close to me so I am going to have to get a mail order tune for now, will a LSA of 112 be okay with my daily driver with a mail order or do I need to get it on a 114??? Thanks for your advice!

Either should work. I don't have any personal experiences with mail order tunes though.

112 lsa will give you power earlier in the rpm's.

I'm not really looking at a certain sound, I would just rather have it on a 112 since the power will hit sooner in the rpm band, but since it's my everyday driver I am just a little worried about how it will drive off a mail order tune since I really dont have another choice at this time. Thanks!

the sound depends on what exhaust you have. if you have an off road set up then nothing will sound stock except a stock cam. if you have cats and a muffler with a very mild cam you may be able to fool a few people that dont know what they are listening for. this coming from experiance.

Drivability will be more than fine with the 112. I have a 224/228 on a 110* LSA and even with NO TUNING the car runs well. The cold idle is a bit rough and wants to die, but once it warms up, it idles perfect. Had a basic tune done the other day so I could pass emissions before I pull my trans and I think they raised my idle to 1000RPMs or so and it idles perfect now.
