Re: How many miles before getting a tune?

Not sure what's going on here, but you can rent dyno time and tune it yourself....

Dyno rental time still requires an operator, so in the end it'll probably cost you more than just paying for a tune.

Honestly i would love to tune my car myself but with the power I'm going for and with the money I have invested in this car it just isn't worth the risk. In all seriousness though once I get some of my tool debt paid down going to school for tuning is something I would really like to do

AGREED, I'm in the same boat. Do it once by doing it right the first time.

The rates are usually cheaper, but if you don't know then yes I agree.
