And Noah I've been researching and when I get stuck and don't understand something I've been asking on here. Asking on here is researching too and its information from ppl who have already started building and have experience in it unlike me I'm new.

if you're just going to do whatever you want to do then stop posting and do it.

a hand held doesn't/won't teach you crap about tuning. and they don't allow you to "play around" all that much really.

They are built, marketed and sold to simple minded fools...

Handhelds are well known for increasing your shift pressure to make it shift harder to make it feel like your hauling *** when you gain no power at all..

Handhelds can also corrupt your computer when you uninstall them for a real tune. Ask me how I know.....
