Does Nelson tuning do retunes? I need one for my cam and other mods but im holding off on my TC and shift kit for a few months but I don't want to pay for a tune if im getting another in a few months

I'd say best bet is to call them up... I dont think you'll fidn many nelson tunes on here anymore. People generally go with someone more local or one of the new guys on the block who are willing to deal with tuning remotely.

I have a nelson tune. I was planning on putting bigger injectors in my truck and I emailed them and asked if they would retune it for that and they said yes I'd just have to pay the shipping cost.

I also have one, I've had him retune my truck multiple times- when I did my cam he charged a extra 100 bucks back when for a more extreme tune- then the payments for shipping both ways

You have to ship them back to Nelson because he locks them and no one else can change them.

yup x2 can't make any quick adjustments if need be without him doing it. Kinda sucks if your in a bind or need a quick tweak so keep that in mind. I used to run Nelsons tune several years back until I found a good tuner local.

He did mine years ago, I did swaping around and he always did my re-tunes. Once I went turbo I decided to get HP tuners myself and purchased it thru them. He did a base tune and sent it out unlocked. We e-mailed back and forth tunes and logs that saved me on the shipping back and forth. I have since learned it and have tweaked it as I went. They seemed at the time to be a great group and did me good.
