Default Another tuning thread

So this weekend i am planning on getting a tune for my new gears and the bolt ons i have. I found a place north of atlanta ( 1 hr from me) that will dyno tune my truck for 375. With the list of mods in my sig, do u think i even need that extensive of a tune? I was thinking of just picking up a Diablo from the local summit store and calling it done. This is my dd and tow-rig and want to keep it reliable, and i also like the fact that i can always go in a change things w/ the diablo. Alright, go ahead and had my *** to me, lets hear it.......

IMO instead of buying the diablo, why don't you buy EFILive V1 and learn to tune, it is only $549, I am assuming that the diablo is close to that price...

Just check on their policies. If they can't get it right the first time they should be willing to work with you until it is right!
