Looking for a tuner

I have a single turbo fd and im using a power fc. Does anyone here know how to tune it for me? Of course i will pay if they can do it for me. I just need it to run right so i can drive it to work and back, i wont be using the car to haul *** for now. Can anyone help me out? I dont really feel like spending a lot of money and taking to a shop and then getting tuned again when Steve Kan comes down in October.

Thanks,
Tom

Unless your rich or like swaping motors. I would get a wide band either way with piggyback and a good single. They arent that much and it could save ya a few grand in the long run.

You don't need to buy a wideband. The Tuner should have a wideband to use on your car for tuning. I think there are a limited number of people in the LA area that are confident tuning the Power FC on other people's FDs.

He might not need it, but it sure beats a popped motor because of a fuel issue you never knew about. Seems like a no brainer with a single?!

Check out the Power FC section of the forum. Search "MAPS" and you will find tons of info.

I came across this thread. Seems like Jodeny can load you a "safe" map until you get tuned...

good luck,

Charlie
