cobalt mods going to be put on hold!

So for a few days I've been trying to plan out everything i want to do to my car, until I decided i wanted to just put it on hold for now.

What I'm going to do is pick me up a hp tuner, and a guide from "the tuning school" around 1100 for both. Then going to study ALOT and try to start tuning cars my self.

"the tuning school" is backed by SCT programmers so I'm sure its legit and works.

If I can learn all I need to from this guide I can then buy the advanced guide thats 900 tho.
And hp tuners has a professional tuner that also cost a lot more so its going to be expensive but I'm sure I can get my money back eventually.

Just going to add tuning to my list of things I can do to cars.

I feel like it wouldn't be worth buying the book. I don't tune but I was planning on doing it myself for a while and a bunch of people told me just to read on the hp forums. You will learn a lot of the forums.

yeah i was actually just thinking the same thing.
I went to the hp forums and there is a lot of good "get started" guides. Ill start off just with the tuner and practice on my car using them guides and see what happens, might go with the dodge one first tho. We have 2 dodge cars and a cummins I could practice on rather than just my cobalt.

Yeah I agree. There is enough forums and ebooks and tutorials online that I'm sure you can save your money and just read them.

yeah, from what i seen its not to bad to learn. Im sure it would pay for its self pretty quick too cause theres a guy about an hour away(only one I know of) that tunes and he charges 350 a car.
