Default Spectacle Solutions - Memphis

Spectacle solutions in Memphis has apparently folded.

1) Does anyone know what tuing software they used in their shop?

2) Also, anyone in Memphis that can help me make a change in the tuning. Spectacle Solutions tuned my car and he left the fuel pressure sensor circuit enabled ( I guess). I'm getting a P0452 engine code and I don't have a stock fuel tank with a sensor. I'm running a '98 fbody pcm in my '55 chevy conversion.

THANKS
Steve

I was thinking about doing that and that is one reason I ask if anyone knew what software Spectacle used when they were in business. I think I read that to make additional changes without a whole new tune, I needed to use the tool that they used. Is that true? Thanks. Steve

Which tuning software you use doesn't matter. As long as they don't lock their tunes you're good to go. If they lock their tunes, you're screwed either way. To my knowledge, they did not lock them.

If you look into HPtuners, shoot me a PM, we are a dealer

Thanks Scoggin. Please shoot me a PM with the cost of the tuner. I've purchased parts from you before and know you usually have good prices. Also, if it is locked, will I be able to restore the stock tune and then start from scratch and make the changes I need?

If anyone in the Memphis area would be willing to help me with this one change, please let me know.

Thanks,
Steve
