Tuning

I have a 2000GT 5spd. I also have a diablo tuner. I want to try and start messing with the tune to see if i can get more power. I am kinda of a novice at it but still know the basics. I have heard alot of talk about a wideband?!!?!? to hook up. What exactly is that where can i get one. MY tuner also has a logger. Can i use that to my advantage? Most people in the local area says take it somewhere and have them do it. But i kinda want to learn myself and try myself. If i fail i can always take it somewhere.

Any input would greatly apprciated!

I wouldnt mess with the tune of your car man. Thats something I would leave to the pros. I know you would like to, and yea it would be nice to do, but it's not worth messin your car up.

I am just talking small timing changes and some air fuel maybee...

there is no way you can mess your car up with a tuner you can always change the settings back to stock

HMUSN · November 3rd, 2007, 04:36 PM

^ sure you can.

adding too much fuel for instance..

the damage is already done to the motor after you return it back to stock.
