Quick question about tuning

Alright, I see a few ppl on here talking about mods to get. Every once in a while someone will say "get a tune" or something refering to a tune.

Does this mean a tune up? (cleaning, oil, plugs blah blah)

Or does this mean pcm tune with a scan tool or something of that sort?

Im confused!!

:D

I don't think I will know how to use it. Plus im sure you would want $200+ and I am not willing to spend that kind of money on it. Call me cheap but I have more priorities like paying for school and car payments, than buying a tuner :D

The tuner raised my average fuel mileage from 23mpg to over 28mg, and I am still working on it. With that kind of savings, you can have the tuner paid off, and be saving money for school and car payments. :th_winking:

As far as using it, I can provide you with copies of all the tuning resources that I found. Read over them, and it explains it in step by step process. And if you have any questions, I am always willing to help get you through it.

The tuner can do great things. :D
 
is there anywhere that i could go to have someone tune it for me? (performance shop or mechanic?) or at least look and see what settings are applied?

i'm out in the boise, ID area. if anyone can help me. please do...
 
I am in the same boat as Freeber. I would like to get my GT "tuned", but will not be dropping that much to get a program. Is there a place that offers this service? I am in the St Louis Area. Middle of Illinois.
 
well the thing about tunning is they need to know about our cars if its someone else. i wouldent just go anywhere and get it tuned, and if they never tuned a grandprix before there deff not touching my car. try and find someone around you with a gtp and a tunner that knows what there doing. or just go get a pcm from overkill
