I don't know shit about tuning, but i want to, so thats the only reason i would even think of spending that much money in two days, i hope you guys cater to people with ZERO knowledge of the subject.

Class is taught by Bob Morreale and is HP Tuners based. The dates are June 21 & 22 and if this one has a good turnout we will schedule them every 2-3 months. You do NOT need your own copy of HP Tuners to start as a demo version is provided, just a laptop.
Course starts out covering the pricipals of electronic fuel injection and then moves to scanning & understanding the data. (injector pulsewidth, O2's, etc.)
that is so cool, sucks I'm getting out of the auto industry tho! That is a reasonable price for the knowledge you will be gaining out of the class(es). Very cool of you guys to do that!
The live class seminar consists of two full days of training that teaches the student how to use the HP Tuners Software AND how to tune the right way. The class is designed for beginners, so that when students leave the class they can head out and start tuning on their own with confidence. In class, students follow along and interact with their own laptops and real tuning scenarios with problems to solve as the class progresses.
How is it possible to start tuning with confidence after only two days of training? The answer is simple. Each student gets our custom designed tuning checklists. These checklists are designed to be used to tune any type of car combination.
Features of the class include:
- The basics of how to use the HP Tuners software.
- What tables need to be changed for your tuning needs.
- What the tables mean, how to understand and adjust them properly.
- What the common ranges are for the tables that are being adjusted.
- How the basic fuel injection system works.
- The right order of tuning, featuring when to adjust Fuel, Spark, etc...
- How to do your tuning on the Dyno. Instruction will occur at a dyno facility at the end of the second day.
The Live Class also includes:
- The Tuning the Right Way: A Beginner's Guide to Tuning GM Vehicles with HP Tuners Software workbook (sample pages: page 9 / page 37-38 / page 187)
- The Tuning Checklists
- The Tuning School Tuning Tree (a map of table locations)
- Breakfast and lunch are provided both days
- Instructors available for further discussion at dinner in a local restaurant
- Discount hotel stay at the seminar location
- The Tuning School T-Shirt (coming soon)
- The Tuning School vinyl decal (coming soon)
The live class is recommended for those people who learn best when they have the ability to ask questions face-to-face with an instructor or for those who plan on doing a lot of dyno tuning and would like hands-on experience learning at a dyno facility.
