We need a good how-to on how to run hp tuners or is it that difficult to teach effectively? I wouldn't mind knowing how to tune my own car with hp tuners, atleast some of the basic changes. All these words I keep seeing, VE this and that, I just have no idea what it means.

He's a good resource too. He doesn't have a lot of time to come on anymore but I'd bet is still willing to help out fellow tuners.

if you have an 07, i can help you out with little things here and there.

timing tables will affect MPG more so then a boost limit will

Ive found this to work extremely well and the long term and short term are just as good if not better then stock

if you were all wondering also I found a spread sheet in another thread that produces these numbers
I defer you to this thread:

What are the best widebands to use with hptuners? i plan on buying hptuners in the future, but i read that only 0-5v output wideband a/f gauges can be used. I was set on getting the 6178 autometer cobalt wideband gauge, but it only says 0-4v output
