If that was my only two choices I would choose VMP. I have heard more bad than good about the bama tune for the 5.0s. What mods do you have?

I am new here to the forum but in regards to the tune...how about the Brenspeed tunes? I have a ruby red 14' GT, track pack and I have been researching tunes as I am considering one.

From personal experience. I ran a BAMA tune in my 13 for three years then I started running into misfire codes. Then the number 8 cylinder started misfiring pretty consistently. Had to get rid of her before the engine took a shit. I have a 16 now and still on the stock tune. When I do add mods and a tune I will take it to a shop and have a tuner do it. I'll pay extra for the tune this time around. I won't trust a canned mail order tune again.
