Default Mail Order Tunes

Who sells them? I know frost is great, anyone else? Any other companies.

If it is a non-vendor, PM me please. I need a basic tune for bolt-ons (LTs, ORY, Lid etc.)


Thank you.


I know Dyno tunes are the best....friggin Slowhawk is about 3 hours from me, I wouldn't go anywhere but him, but recommend me for now.

PM Slowhawk and see if he can get you a basic file and have it emailed. Was that ever an option??

Myself, never been a big fan. I use it for a bridge between stock, to bolt ons, to a cam and when install a cam thats when I feel I need to have everything re checked.

Does anyone do email tunes via diablo or sct? With the mustang you can get email tunes and most vendors will update the tune for free when you add new mods. Most can even tune for cams and be spot on with it. Mailing in your PCM seems like a PITA.

I do mail order tunes. Just ain't exactly cheap. Mostly do more radical setups. Bigger cams, SDtunes, Blowers, turbos, 2 bar SD, 3 bar SD, 2 bar E38s, etc., etc.

We do mail order tunes.
PCMforLess also does mail order tunes.
Heintz Racing does nice work, but I am not sure if they do mail orders.
I have never seen a edcmat-l1 tune and that is a good thing. I hear he does good work also.

Cant speak for the others here but FROST put one hell of a mail order tune on my car back in the day. I was verry happy with it compared to the predator tuner I had before it.

Email tune only works if you have a program that they use to load it.
