E-Mail Tunes

[Marko]

I was thinking of getting a new tune for my 03 Cobra. My mods: 2.76 pulley, k&n fipk, flowmaster catback, tr6 plugs, xcal2.

I was thinking of getting an email tune from Bob Kurgan or going to Mr. Norms Garage for a dyno tune. What do you guys think?

Do I just need the live load program to download an email tune?

I know this is an old question but haven't any of you guys gotten an email tune? How good was it?

You need a dyno tune....end of discussion.

That's true. .....every car is different.

I would use an "email" tune just to be able to drive the car to get dyno tuned.

That's true. .....every car is different.

even more so than this is the weather/humidity/elevation is different everywhere. a tune in FL might not work so well in CO.

I think a tune is the most important part of your setup, have it tuned in person whether on a dyno or on the street, not by mail.

that combo is so common that ANY good tuner could set you up with an email tune that would match a dyno tune... there is nothing difficult about it..

Like a factory one size fits all pig rich overly safe cover your ass tune, not a perfect tune for your specific vehicle, but do whatever makes you happy. This is just my opinion.

.... unless you have 1 bad pump, clogged fuel filter, no wideband etc.

if you send the customer a livelink file to log a few things like stft, ltft, spark, etc and if he has a factory maf and injectors, its nearly impossible to screw up... NEARLY impossible

Yeah some tuners have tuned like shit even with the dyno and cost people motors. I would still have it dyno tuned for piece of mind and if there are issues like not enough injector etc they can tell you that vs maxing out and running lean etc. Call Tim @ Mr Norms in Machesney Park he tuned my car as well as MANY people I know without issue. Hes not the type to wam bam you in and out. He takes his time and tunes for driveability as well as power. I know others tune for WOT or a big number and thats it.
