You are pissing in the wind without it.
Oooooold thread lol but I learned the Same way as well. I found it to be easier with little victories. As in, starting with navigating the software, learning to scan, correctly saving files, and making small changes. That way with each successful completion of a task, you will gain more confidence as well. One suggestion I haven't seen yet is YouTube. There are tons of free beginner lessons from the tuning school. Most have been very helpful.

He's still tuning AFIAK. He's a cranky SOB however.

And you can tune with the narrowbands for cruising and by sound/idle quality at idle. But you need a wideband for WOT fueling.
