Do you want a mail order tune? Why not consider a custom laptop tune? Since every combo is unique, you'll get a lot better dialed-in tune with a custom laptop tune.

The big advantage of an in-person on the dyno tune by a qualified shop/tuner would be the experience that can identify if the vehicle is ready to be tuned. Can't fix a car with a tune. Please don't take offense but, it's really easy to overlook, not know, miss something after an install and by enlisting all your hopes on a mail order tune to be anything more than just a baseline to get the car going on it's way is to possibly setup up all your hopes for big dissapointment when things are not perfect.

Granted, there are a lot of combos out there and a lot of the sponsors on this board have done many of them and have files that will at worst get you in the ballpark and possibly reveal leaking exhaust/intake tracks, pcv, etc issues and at best work out really great rolling the dice that both the tune and the car are spot on.

There is a time and a place for mail order, just bear in mind what is a realistic expectation- both the car and the tune have to be good.
