Would you be willing to come out and tune something out of state? What would it cost. I am being completly for real.

Hi how's it going?
I'm honored you'd ask that, but there might be a better solution. I can't seem to get away for one day and not be backed up on work for days.
Do you hav a laptop? If so, then let's get you hptuner and get your truck tuned up!
I've quite a bit like this, and with logs, I can tell exactly what is going on with the truck.
Just to give you an example of the potential, I'm tuning an 03 SS with the Livernois turbo with 12.5 psi right now. I believe he's running a 12.5 or something like that. it's haulin a$$
let me know, I know we an get your truck tuned up great.
btw, if you need pricing on traveling and tuning your truck live, shoot me an email and I'd be more than happy to supply you with the info.
thanks,
allen
Yeah Allen is looking at my logs right now, it would be next best thing from having a live tune!

Now this is starting to get interesting.
I just bought, two months ago, a 99 1500 EC 2WD 5.3 L60 with 88K. Body and interior perfect, highway miles, tight, runs and drives great.
A Nelson tune is what I want but I need to live with this truck for a while longer in order to have a feel for the tune parameters I will want based upon the driving that I do.
My perception is that there are so many issues interrelated that it is hard to specify exact parameters to Allen Nelson for a mail order tune. I can visualize repeated retunes to make small adjustments in the driveability of my truck, simply because I may not be able to say the correct things to Allen.
As I understand the foregoing posts to this thread, I could buy a PCTunerfor my truck, log my driving characteristics and truck characteristics. Then buy a Nelson Tune based upon my logs and desires. Allen would either mail the CD or DVD or email new programming. Then I would simply reflash the PCM that is in the truck.
Now for the good part. There are engine management parts of the PCM that only Allen has the experience to adjust but there are probably many other issues such as shift time, shift firmness, torque management, tire size, operating temperature, etc that affect driveability for everyday use that I could tweak myself.
Allen. Is my understanding of this adequate or just right to be dangerous?
Thanks,
Jim
sounds like you got it right. he can e-mail you the changes and you just load em up. thats your best bet for a long distance hands on tune :thumb:
Too bad he doesnt appear to do 96 L31 Vortechs according to his site :(
Edit: just got an email back from Allen. Looks like he does and it's just not listed on the site :cool:

You're right on track! You're right about sending logs and tunes back and forth, it works out just fine.
There are novice and advanced parameters when tuning a pcm.
If you're interested give me a call and I'll be glad to discuss the details!
