you can buy HP tuners from some of the vendors here, like ZZP or go straight to HP Tuners website, another vendor here. IF your new to tuning then just take it one small step at a time and do alot of reading and asking questions. Im sure there are more vendors here that offer it. The standard is 499 and the pro is 649.

Lol, "It seems useful" might be an understatement...

OTT has a good deal on 60lb injectors (assuming thats what your talking about), and you can get HP Tuners directly from HP Tuners, or one of the vendors carries it as well, but I dont remember who...

yeah its software that you put onto a laptop and hook it up to your car and tune with it... its way more detailed then that but its not a performance upgrade if thats what your thinking its what makes your upgrades work to the fullest

No offense, but if your asking questions like these, you might want to just let someone who knows how to tune do it. It dangerous if you dont know what your doing.

i want to learn it. I have heard about it but I personally have never done anything with tuning. If I got it I would do extensive research and have friends help...not to mention prob come on here to ask questions. But right now I dont have 500 bucks to shell out

you just cant really.. read and have it work in a month...

This is something that you need a dud car to practice on, and have someone who can tune with you teaching you and telling you what will blow up your engine and what wrong..

Its messing with numbers.. using formulas to figure out the right numbers... and one miss calc. or misunderstanding of the numbers can seriously hurt something.

Im an excellent example. I have had HP Tuners for over a year now, and I can still only do small things, its a lot harder to get in to than you would think, lol. Then again, my lack of free time to read and learn doesnt help any...
