Since i haven't seen any threads or feedback on it, what was the general consensus on the professional tuner school thing?

tunerschool grad here lol. I would say it is a pretty good course if you are just starting out. It will help you navigate pretty well through the hp tuners software. The only suggestion i would say is lower it from 800 and change to the 600 range. If you have the spare money for the hp tuners and the class then take it. If you do take the course definitely drive your car to class. You will want to tune as soon as you get out.

We are looking at 3 months to do the next one at RevXtreme for $600 each. Stay tuned for dates.

All gave good feedback, they did a good job. Heard no complaints. The Tuning School taught the class.

Just to clarify, the RevXtreme class coming up at $600 is NOT affiliated with "The Tuneing School" which did teach the 1st one which I thought was made clear in this post.

All that attended & gave us feedback had nothing but good to say about "The Tuneing School" classes.....very well done by the instructors.

Why don't you guy's start doing a EFI Live school? You have the skills & EFI Live is an awesome platform as well. I bet it would go over well & there are a ton of members that would love to learn the basics. I think you would have a winner.
