#21
lol guys this is also the guy who dynoed 160+whp with his muffler cut off and a home made intake....lol
#22
I don't know why people have to be _______s. Why would anyone want to come on here and participate?? I'll figure this ____ out on my own or join another forum.
#23
Yea if you read the thread it says the dyno wasn't calibrated right (correction was incorrect) and it was to show my gains from the turbo. Aren't you the one who got all his posts deleted for being inflammatory? Don't you just pay someone else to do all your work. Ptune=you had your work done. get real
#24
Don't hate on the intake and exhaust. why put money into something that will just be taken off. So I got creative, keep throwing money at your car. We can line up and see whats up in the end

all right guys lets be polite or at least try to be polite. If your answer is going to be facepalm lets not post it, come on now.
Seriously WalkaWalka, dont be cheap and tune it professionally ! Because is the most important thing and spending $500 now can prevent you from spending thousands later and that later can become sooner then you think...

Homemade because I have a kid and I go to school full time. I also work two jobs and own my own house. And this isn't my only hobby so if I don't know everything there is to know about tuning my car, why is it so hard for you to realize that you are just a punk kid living in mom's basement with a bunch of little pictures you downloaded off some website. GET A LIFE

There are institutions that teach how to tune properly and all the steps involved, you don't go out with your scangauge and FIC data log and get it right. Institutions teach you properly so you do not risk the longevity of your car.
The point is there are right ways and there are wrong ways; this thread is obviously the wrong way. There have been numerous threads on this topic and each has ended the same way, either learn how to tune or have the car tuned professionally.
Throwing a map on the car from another tC is a recipe for failure, each car is different and there are many other variables, just because a map works on one does not mean it will work well for another, that's the purpose of a base map, it's a starting point not the finish point.
Learning how to tune isn't impossible but isn't a cake walk either...

You have to start somewhere whether it be with no map at all or with a map someone else created.

I was going to tell you I have a buddy who lives in Chicago who does street tunes for a living and I'm pretty sure he's familiar with AEM fic.
It your call now.

My response was facepalm because that's what this thread is....simple as that.

so pretty much i think people should post something usefull towards the OP or pretty much dont flood the thread. I Can assure you he is NOT the first and not the last person to be posting something like this and there is no point to get upset over it..thats IMHO.
I'm not sure if that information was posted towards me or not ... where you explained about specialty tuning schools but you should have posted that and addressed it the OP to make him aware if he can't understand himself.
P.S. I and most people obviously understand that tuning is not exactly as easy as some might think it is hence why we are going to people with professional tuning experiences like Vinny Ten, P-Tuning etc...
