you guys just are so blind by the tweecer... sure it's a good product, but i don't get caught up in the hype. 500+ dollars for the tweecer, then the wide band, then then you need a laptop, with xp pro.
or drive, or trailor your car to a tuner, pay the 350 dollars then dyno time. somewhere under 500 bucks and you can have a car that runs well and makes power. for even cheaper than the price of a tweecer alone.
AND on top of that, you have no learning curve to worry about as well as a trained professional WHO KNOWS what he his doing tuning your car.
now if you plan on adding parts later, you can go back to the tuning shop, and i've heard of them working a deal with you. but for me when i did my combo, i did it all at once none of the, lets install this, and then hopefully later on i can add heads to the combo. I tried to plan ahead enough so that i have a fully built long block ready to drop in then go to the tune shop. i don't want to have to guess around and then wonder if it'll work with my other mods and have to worry about a tune, i like to get it all out of the way at once.

Don't see why you feel a need to rant
but .........................
I have seen some of those Pro Tunes and very little was done to make more wot power and NOTHING was done to help with drivability.
I'm not saying ALL pro tuners turn out work like that but some do.
Pro Tune or Self Tune ...... its all the same in the fact that the tuner has to have the knowledge to make things right.
Just cause you pay for a tune don't mean you get a tune that is any better than a self tune.
One advantage of self tuning is you can work with it until you are satisfied.
I don't have anything against a Pro Tune but IMHO, it is no more a sure fire method of having no probs than self tuning.
From time to time, you see peeps in these threads who have had probs with either method of tuning.
