Will i need a professional tuner??

Post by Rddliner »

Hello everyone im kinda new to these boards, I just have a few simple questions about a .kal file i plan to run with my new turbo set up.

First off let me say what parts i have

Cybernation stage 1 with 60-1 upgrade
650cc 12 ohm injectors
3 inch custom exhaust
K-Pro
Upgraded fuel pump ( still havent decided which to get )

My main question is with this set up and running the K20a2-rsx-650cc12ohm-cyber-10psi.kal file that comes with the software would i need a professional tunner? or was this file designed with this setup and mind? I understand ill need to tune some knock out of the engine, that shouldnt be a major problem. But my problem is i have limited knowledge on tunning and im not going to take a chance on messing something up that is going to cost a ton of cash. Another problem is that the area i live in has tons of tunners but none are knowledgable in hondata and i dont think i should drive the car a few hundered miles to a tunner on a setup that may not be safe.

Second "if" i have to have a professional tune my car, how much would something like this cost? Im kinda strapped after i just dumped over 5k into parts.

Thanks in advance
