Default mail order tune?

ok. there used To be a guy on ebay who did mail order tunes for 100 plus like a 50 dollar core. he did whatever you wanted and if you gave him cam specs he'd do a rough tune for that too. does anybody know if this guys still floatin around or if there's anyone else that can tune me for this price or close To it?

Oh man. I read that and just cringe. Core charge? Core for what?

Contact Frost. He is one guy who does mail order tunes and has a lot of positive results. He has a deal going on tunes too.

The deal here: http://www.tunedbyfrost.com/services2.htm


Great guy to work with. Very helpful.

"Doc" over at EFIAlchemy is a great guy to work with as well. He's been helping me out A LOT as I slowly learn to tune myself. I'm sure they'd be happy to help you out. Just giving you another option to consider. Good luck.

I just emailed Frost, I have a boosted app but I need a decent tune to let me idle and build some RPMs to find boost leaks. My build should be done around Christmas so I need something to keep my busy til snow leaves in April or so :-)

Frost is definitely a great choice. If you're looking for something cheap to get you running long enough to get to a real dyno tune then wait4me can get you set up with a pretty good tuned pcm for $160...then you can sell your old pcm for at least $100
