Default dry tune

? is as follows ... 100 dry shot is it simple to tune at home with merely a wideband buy just changing the nozzle placement not flashing of the pcm?

really isn't a need for a tune on a 100 shot i'd just make sure that your a/f is in a good spot. i was shooting 100 for over a year with no tune and never had one problem. its when you go over the 100 you have to worry.

I'd like to know if its safe to just go about adjusting nozzle location for A/F at home using a wideband as well. It would save me a few bux from making a trip to the dyno.

Yes you can however do a couple of "free" things just to make sure.
1. Watch the AFR on your wideband.. CLOSELY.
2. Swap out your plugs to TR6s and READ THEM... OFTEN.
3. Start with the nozzles close and directly at the maf. That will be the richest area. Then adjust the direction A LITTLE bit at a time for desired afr.

I didn't change my tune until I went to 125 and I'm still playing with it a little at 150. But MY car is not YOUR car. Each one is a little different (along with climate, altitude, octane..etc.)

Any tips on reading plugs? Do you just read one or do you have to pull all 8 to be safe?

There's a sticky on it. I usually pull 2 or 3 (diff 2 or 3 each time) unless I was to see something too white or too black. (or anything that resembles Robert's no-electrode plugs )
