New Tuning Enthusiast

Post by skeob »

Hello tuners!

my name's Souk. I have heard all the great things tuning does to cars, could you guys give me suggestions on where i should start? i'd like to learn where i should start with tuning, things i should consider when i start and what not. i have read the tuning 101 guide that was posted around the forum here and it sounds easy from there way jeff wrote it but i don't even know where to begin.

I am serious about tuning and if someone could point me in the right direction of where i should go or read, i'd appreciate it. I currently have the lastest s300 software and my buddy has the s300 installed in his car. should i start the stock calibrations that hondata came with and try to tune with that to my goal? i won't be uploading it on to the ecu but i'd like to use that as a base to start my tuning journey.

if i should the stock calibration, i will try to tune it to 300 whp as a homework assignment until i get a better understanding i won't start with an actual car yet but your guidance is much appreciated. i would like to go to school for this but i'm in the military.

i started working on a display too. please give me feedback on anything.

If you are unsure of where to begin, you may find it helpful to sit in with a tuner durring a dyno tuning session.
