Default WHo does SD tuning?

I am looking for a professional tuning shop that I can take my car to that will do or at least help me do my 3bar SD tune. I am located in South East New Mexico and I have no problem trailering my car to a tuner within 500 miles of my location. Dallas, Houston area is not out of the question.

I plan on tuning most of it myself. I already have it set up in 3bar SDOL and I have started tuning it. I have not done any WOT tuning as of yet. I am a little cautious of doing the WOT tuning at this point because of the Boost.

Thanks for the help everyone.

If you've come this far and you have the means, DIY!

Start with things conservative and you can't go wrong.

Tune the bottom of your VE up to 105kPa first to get a feel for things. Once you get that done, you will be fine rolling into a pound or a few pounds as you work yourself up. Along the way, as you run into specific items, ask specific questions; they get answered.

Many of the sponsors (including myself) provide remote support for people that have their own software but are not entirely comfortable doing it all themselves.

I have been tuning my car and a few others. They were all H/C cars but no boost. I am just nervous about doing my new set up with the boost. I think I can do it. I have no problem trying to do it. What I want to do is work the tune out until I think I have done all I can do, then take it to a pro for them to take a final look at it. I guess I just want someone to give me thier blessing and to make sure there is nothing I left undone.
