This question is for all the guys who do their own tuning. How do you guys prefer to tune your car?

Your question is very vague and some people think they know and tune to blow up instead.

I did this, my car now spins the tires in 3rd gear.

It does sound like a bucket of quarters got tossed into the intake though. I had to turn off knock retard, it was taking away all my horsepowers.

Op learn from some who learned the hard way- make sure you know what you are doing before attempting this and understand all the variables or you will pop the motor quick.
