    no experience with them. i bought mine years ago from Hptuners. as for DIY those are nice to help ppl out. i learned by finding a stock fbody and doing the basics to it as you would do any car. lean out add timing. then it later came mods to the car/truck and had to learn those. dont expect to know everything the first year. it takes time to actually make shit work right. in a few months youll get an idea on how it is. the biggest thing that will excell one person from next is their mechanical back ground. if you have no idea what a motor does then its hard to tune


    good luck, and stay away from PE hacking

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    From what I've been told it's a benefit to know how to set up a carb too, instead of a screwdriver yor using a keyboard.

    Well the beginer guide comes with a bolt-on, Heads & cam and Forced induction section. The one I ordered comes with Hp Tuners Pro, Tuning The Right Way Book, Innovative Wide Band and a tail pipe sniffer clamp for $1400. Seemed like a good deal

    holy f@@k....i could of gave you the PDF file of that Tuning the righ way book. honestly it teaches you PE hacking which by no means is proper way of tuning. and a wideband is only 200 bucks for the base LC1

    550 is much cheaper then 1400. you dont need tailpipe claim unless your a tuning shop. also more accurate reading is off the downpipe or off headers for AFR
