Re: What tuning tool to buy? DSMlink, AFC II, etc.

Your best bets are either the DSMLink or doing the exact same thing you did with your Turbo Grand Prix and break out the EPROM burner.

Bust out the burner! That's how I do it. There are a few programs out there to mod the code for you. Cheap. I need to put my ECU back in it's place still.

It is funny you said that because my wife said...why pay someone to do something you can do yourself! My answer was...because I am older and have a few more $$ in my pocket!

Tuning myself is fun because you really get to learn about what truly makes my cars tick. But I had two fatal motor failures ( = $6000 ) when I played with my Turbo GP's and in all honesty I would rather buy something that makes that margin of error much less to begin with.

I was looking at DSMTuners and found a pretty in-depth thread about DSMlink and the other tuning abilities out there. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/show...hlight=dsmlink

I would really like to hear everyone's opinion of the pros and cons!
