Blackbear did my tune and I'm happy with it. No issues and he's quick to respond to your questions. I've heard good things about Wheatly and Nelson as well. Send them emails and see what you like best. I'm pretty sure they're all pretty equally priced as well.

I'm not sure where Wheatley is, but they all do mail order tunes. Just tell them what you have and what you'd basically like out of the tune and they mail you a new PCM. Then you send yours back. Its simple.

Nelson is in Texas if you'd prefer to have it tuned live.

BTW, all of these tuners are sponsors and links to their sites can be found on the right side of the page.

I think you'd be better off paying someone to do it.

Wheatley is in Houston fyi.

If you're absolutely dead set on getting a hand held, i suggest the diablo/predator. They have quite a bit of function to them. I would suggest a tune from blackbear or the likes
