not much to learn.......all about the same.....kinda funny how much of a big deal people make out of this.......the hard part is the VE table..still not sure and working on it to see a difference in drivability....i was shocked to see one and only one person touched it in the list above..jimmy and jason it was not roy! the tune we looked at of his was a stock ve table.(enjoy)...i would never post something like that to hurt anyone.....but im learning from them....i told jason i was open and will try and do the right thing when it came to tuning.. I will Never KNOCK another shop or the way they do things.....people do things the way they do them for a reason.....maybe it works better..maybe they know something that other people dont.......by the book is not always the best way....to tune the ve table without a base every time, would cost the customer at least 2600 bucks.....from what i see so far is there is not a perfect tune for 600-800 bucks....but most of them work!

Who is Will. Picture this, Will is about 6ft 2in. tall weighs about 235lbs and look's like a minature Hulk! Just Play nice with Will and you will be fine Jimmy!

Priceless.... Will thinks that all tunes are about the same....

Will - how did my car lose power yet gain so much speed? Explain that to us since you're now a tuner.

Not sure of what you mean by this? Tuning a VE table is pretty simple, it just rarely gets done (and when I have seen it done, it is not correct).

That is a lot of money for a tune, I wish I could get away with charging that For $600, it should be perfect and more than just a dyno tune (mostly like only 10 change for $600, which is about 1/4 of what is NEEDED at a minimum on some of the cars I have seen haha). A good VE/MAF tune only takes 2-3 hours to complete when properly done by competent people. I know a lot of guys it takes longer, but they are still learning.

Who the hell cares about your tune anyway! You have never been to the track and probably will never even get out the 12 sec. range anyhow!!!!
You sound like an expert for everything that you do! Get a hobby!
