Best Tuner to disable the misfire code in 2002 TA?

I keep throwing a check engine light because of a misfire code which isnt really a misfire but it just keeps happening because of my cam. So that being said I wanna disable this code and also my abs while i am at it. What is the best tuner to do this?

No tuner can disable ABS. Either EFI Live or HP Tuners can disable misfire.

Not that I know of, I just removed my abs lights from my cluster when I went to manual brakes on my car.

So which HP tuners the Pro or the regular do you suggest for making this change, I have to disable the code for inspection.

If thats all you plan to use it for the std will do, if you plan to do fuel tuning even later down the line you'll want to consider the pro version since it has provisions for analog wideband inputs.

You might as well just buy the Pro now, as soon as you get into tuning you will wish would have if you didnt. With the Pro you can plug a wide band directly into hp tuners which you will need to and real tuning.

I dont believe the car is actually misfiring, I jsut think because the cam is so aggressive that the code is being thrown

Well thats my understanding is the engine is not misfiring, I would feel that it def is not so after speaking with other members it seems to be related to the cam unless you can explain to my why my car is misfiring legitimately because at this point if i cant feel it or hear it I dont believe it. Any ideas?
