Default Finally, How to Tune 101!

MOD EDIT:
Thank you for this contribution. It should definetly help some new to tuning.

I am making this post a sticky and including another link for download. If for some reason this link does not work, there are several others contained within this thread (thanks to all that are providing bandwidth for this great document)

http://www.transamws6.net/HPTuners/ls1tuninginfo.doc

Also mirrored courtesy of LS1Sounds at:
http://ls1sounds.com/temp/ls1tuninginfo.doc




You guys should check this out. someone spent alot of time on this. This will help anyone who is learning to tune. Its got a ton of info showing you how to tune, the basics of tuning, sd tuning, and more.

Scroll down and look for the links

Man, if you guys really started using the Horist website we would really be set then. This is alot of great info, but imaging starting with a baseline tune! I will help any of you guys out with tuning that need it. I know alot of you spend alot of time on your tunes, but why not share it. Save somebody else alot of time. I promise when my car comes out for the season, i dont care if i spend 140 hours on my tune. There will be a TReX tune that i made, posted on horist website. (NA, and a Nitrous Tune) http://www.horist.com/hptuner/
