[QUOTE="buddha93, post: 16595837, member: 6433"] Depends on what your referring too. The current thing in the spotlot is the EPA paying visits to shop to make sure they aren't screwing with the emmissions. There are plenty of tuners out there who will turn off the rear O2's to negatate any MIL and such. Huge fines are being levied, companys being put out of business etc. Goes without saying, it's not about trying to make big numbers, but simply more power safely. I shaved 50 rwhp off the Shelby I bought that I thought questionalbe tune from a very well know dyno tuner in SC. The numbers were what I deemed to be pretty high for a pump gas tune to I took to a local tuner here in STL that's been tuning for a very long time and not just SCT. He's tuned it all and actaully understands what the hell he's doing. Long story short, O2's turned off, 20 degress of total timing, and the icing on the cake was a dead WB 02. To compensate for the dead WB 02, they simply mirrored the other bank to make it run. Every time my tuner would load his stuff, the car would start to stumble, etc. Took extra time to track it down before he found it, got the timing where it needs to be and car still makes plenty of power.............safely. Anyway, those packages are referenced eariler is a canned tune, all centered around the parts they hand you. It's a proven safe tune that's repeatble a 1000 times. It's when you go start to mix and match other things you start to look at a custom tune on the dyo. [/QUOTE]
