    Default Self tune?

    what would u need to tune your car urself? I would really like to learn and do it as I think the driver needs to tune his own car to however he likes it. (i drive a 03 evo 8)

    Jay? I noticed you are self tuned...suggestions?

    thanks,
    andrei

    Go to evolutionm.net. Go to Ecuflash sub forums. Set about 10-20 hours of spare time, and start reading.

    yeah, you need to do alot of reading to understand how each tables on the ECU works, and how it will affect your car.

    You also need:
    Laptop (with Windows XP)
    Ecuflash (1.3 or 2.0)
    ECU Unlocker
    EvoScan
    Tactrix cable (1.3 or 2.0

    The car Must have:
    Boost Gauge
    Wideband (AFR Gauge go with AEM, or Zeitronix)
    Boost Controller ( MBC for a start )
