You can learn just about everything you need to know through the internet.

Just image, you buy exhuast, tune it in. . .intake manifold, tune it in. . .cam, tune it in . . . turbo, tune it in. Maybe goto the dyno for a run just as a baseline from time to time to keep up with your quest for the perfect tune. Besides it's just fun even if you don't need it.

Then when you're in the 11's and people ask you who does your tune, you can tell them you tuned it yourself on the steet and you can confuse them with your techno babble.

Been following this thread.

The above statement & question says it all!

The info is out there but YOU have to dig it out yourself.

It is a two step process. One step is you learn how the pcm works. If you know how the pcm works you will understand what will happen if you make a modification to it and that leads to the other step which is tuning the car with the pcm adjustments.

My take on it is, you learn a little here and a little there and pretty soon it all starts to fall in place. It's kinda like when you started to learn things about modding your Stang and after a while things started to make since.

If you stay at it, you WILL have the satisfaction of being in control of the tune of your car.

I've had a lot of fun learning and trying things and I think I've exceeded my expections with the tune of my car using the Tweecer but know this***
I started lurking on the EEC Tuner site a good bit before the Tweecer was released and naturally, I have followed the Tweecer since its release.

It really does not take too long to pick up the basics but you DO have to learn enough to get started.

I guess you have to ask yourself if you are the kinda person who wants to do the research and learn by hands on experience.

Some tuning devices are more user friendly than the Tweecer or EEC Tuner but if I understand correctly they will be more costly.

Good luck to all of the self tuners out there

Couldn't agree more, I drive to work each morning and enable the logging, I've learned so much about my car in the last 2 days, its amazing.. then I get insight from guys on the forum here (awesome help!) and its all falling into place.. I've been reviewing the functions and tables and I see how the airtemp and engine coolant temp adjust the timing, and its simply amazing, a motor really isn't that complicated, and once my FTI camm'd 350hp beast gets put together it'll need a tune for sure !!
