He's talking about going with a handheld...not a tune. He will advocate a custom tune just like 98% of us on here will. We know what you get with a handheld vs what you get with a custom and not one person on here will agree or suggest a handheld for you.

God that's hilarious!! At least this ricer has the common sense to put the wing in the right spot, but it's still just too funny to look at!!

Go Nelson or Wheatley or Black Bear and be done with it, hand helds are overpriced junk.

I am going with EFI Live AutoCal.

BTW, Chris Rado won FWD Unlimited class so bash all you want but that tC is putting down some serious power. Would I do the front or rear wings on these cars, heck no. I am just saying his is strictly track.

Chris Rado was the first FWD drag car in the 6’s with a 6.87@199.97 at the NHRA Full Throttle finals in Pomona, CA.

We're not bashing, we're laughing. There's a difference. This site is full of guys trying to make TRUCKS go fast. It'd be a little hypocritical if we laugh at others yet can't see the humor in what we do.

Oh, trust me I did laugh at the same time. I am getting frustrated with my car I'm on the fourth computer system and none of them out there have been worth a crap. I like being able to flash the factory ecu its a great thing! Wish I could with Toyota.

Oh BTW is this Steve?

your wasting money on the hand held tuner. call up wheatley and get a custom tune for the same price of a handheld that isnt worth using as a paper weight.

I ordered a EFILive AutoCal. How many times can our ecu's be flashed before needing to replace the chip?
