Steve Kan tuning San Jose HELP

So this is worst case senerio but I have to ask. I just got in on the tune w/ steve I have heard nothing but great things and I cant wait. My question is I am desperately in the market for a commander bought my PFC with a datalogit but the guy stiffed my on it and took my money. I have had no luck but will continue to search. My question and favor would be one out of deseration but if it comes down to it would someone be willing to let me borrow there commander for the tune I would appreciate it and it would take a great deal of stress off my back lol. Thanks in advance

Steve usually has a Datalogit that he brings to the tuning sessions, and the Commander is just neccisary to see readings etc... In all likelyhood if you have more than 2 or 3 Fd's you'll have someone with one there and when they're not on the dyno you should be able to use it... If all else fails ask steve to bring one... !

The commander is not used nor needed for the tune. Steve will use datalogic software with his laptop pc and get readings from a wideband.

unless you need it to reset the pfc after installing, in order to driving it to the session, I see no reason to stress over not having a commander.

+1, you're good to go without the Commander.

I need to reset my PFC if i cant sell it and buy another one it is set up with a base map for 850/1600 fuel system there is no way my 550/1300 set up will run on that im not willing to risk it. Maybe when i get the car up and running someone can stop buy and reset my ECU with there commander for me? Thanks for the input guys.
