Rocky, go to HPTuners web site. There is a guy there that had a schedule for classes for "08" at different locations. Looked like a 2 day affair for about $500+. I didn't see any thing for "09" though. Their web site has some pretty informative stuff that would be good to read and maybe get you started. Good Luck,
yea i just got HPtuners not to long ago and I am totally lost with it. I did figure out some of the basics from just messing around with it, but if you find something for newbies let me know

There is a guide that floats around on hptuners written by a guy on the site. From what I have seen its pretty good and helps with tuning your VE table and eliminating knock retard. I will host it on my site if you want to download it.

^^There is some pretty good information in there. The HPtuners forum is also a very good place to find out alot of basics. I'm still learning myself, and you just keep learning more!
Nice book, but it ain't all that. You will still need this site and HP Tuners forums and documents like tording99z28 just posted. That document is pretty awesome. You won't find all your answers in one source. Grab all you can and make your own book and save your money.

The tuning book by Dan is what I have used, I have 3 other tuning books and his has the best step by step examples and explainations. Plus Dan will work with if you just ask him. He won't hold your hand and walk you through every detail but he will work with you, answer your questions, and move you in the right direction.
