This will help many of you out understand some terms and different things in the tuning environment and about your ride. I still have lots to learn myself. I still need to read it all. Some say to read it 3 times before beginning to tune!!

Some of you already know the guy named Jerry who was into DHP Power Tuner and helped out the community. Well here is some info form him, my buddy Dave (digitallyphoenix) that you should read to find out about scanning and tuning.
Info on tuning
Dave's: tuning resources

Dave's website: Z34Phoenix

Here is a tuning hint link: http://wiki.opentuner3800.com/index.php?title=Tuning_Hints

And Open Tuner 3800 main page here: http://wiki.opentuner3800.com/index.php?title=Main_Page

....thanks man, i will def. be reading up on this. I think it's easier for me to actually work with someone that has experience with the tuning. I learn stuff faster when i'm shown what to do or look for.

That OpenTuner wiki basically takes all the guesswork out of doing a tune. Good summary of many of the other sources without having to wade through the BS.
