I dont know if this is needed, but i can vouch for TED and the benefits / advantages of remote tuning for those of us without a reputable tuner near by.

I have heard so many horror stories of the "local guy" who said he could tune my car, and then disaster!

To be honest, even though TED is great, this is tricky without a good general understanding of how HP tuners works. As much as i suggest using TED, i also suggest you watch some HP tuner 101 videos before getting started.

This will speed up the process, and prevent you from wasting time when the process starts.

I have had many sports cars, and had a few of them modded and tuned, and being a DIY kind of guy, I really enjoy the "street tune" vs. the "dyno tune". Im not saying that one is better than the other, but when you street tune your car, over the 3-10 data log / tune change process (depending on mods) its cool so see and feel the changes, and it allows you to provide TED realtime feedback (idle, fans) etc as you go, to make sure the car is just the way you like it.

Also, the part i appreciate most, is the peace of mind of how he eases into WOT.

For example, with my recent cam swap, we have 2-3 data logs with no boost before he even suggested one. Makes me alot more confident with the process, vs. potentially leaving your car with someone who might be hammering on your car before it's ready.

We all know the world class shops that DONT do that, but for some of the smaller or UN-experianced wanna-be shops that you need to be aware of.

Anyway, thats my 2 cents...
