Black2003SS Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 (edited) In addition to Wester's tune, there is PCMforless.com, Zippy (Frank from Revolutionraceworks works with Zippy), Nelson tuning (in Texas). Zippy and Frank have tuned some of the fastest trucks on here (other vendors have tuned fast trucks as well). Each have different tuning habits, beliefs about how to tune, and of course cost. Mail order tunes are good in most cases, but not always perfect. If you can get HP tuners or EFI live, you can fine tune it by sending logs to your tuner and have them make any necessary corrections. In person tuning is better so if one of the tuners is close to you, going to see them is in you and your trucks best interest. Also, dyno tuning is above all the best and immediate result, but AWD dynos are in short supply unless you have a 2WD truck. Zippy tuned my truck and I am extremely happy with it.

Prestoar Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 I looked around for a mail order tune for a few weeks before recently going with Wait4Me (W4M). The only mods I plan on having on my truck are CAI and exhaust and figured anybody that does lots of tuning would be good enough for me, plus its free service and upgrades. The major deciding factor was the price for me though, paid 150+shipping for tune+core. Looking at 350ish with most other tuners for a tune+core.

Black2003SS Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 Personally, I wouldnt rely on how many tunes someone has done as the bar of measure. Example...If I needed open heart surgery and I had two doctors...One who has performed 10,000 surgeries, but only 75% survived or one who has performed 1,000 and 99% survived, I would go with the later... In the case of tuning, I would listen to success stories and look for proven results. Just because someone does alot of tuning doesnt mean they are good, because in all likely hood, you wont hear about the aftermath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
