Only problem I still see is the price. If it is as good as they say, I think they could cut the price in half they would double the sales (or more). So profit for them would be as good or better and they could help more people.

Anyone want to split the cost with me...

Did they get into OLSD and/or transmission tuning at all?

I would like to take this class from Greg Banish! Too bad it is way out of my price range.

I have his Engine Management: Advanced Tuning book!!

Great book I just wish it had more detailed info in it than it does.
It is full of good basic theory though.

Yeah, that's the one. I read a little here and there, and then i re-read to try to comprehend, lol. I'm as bit slow, but methodical.

Trever, not what I understood. Reread post b4 yours. Sounds like v8 said before he took class it would comprise all vehicles(which a truck is), but after he got there it was 1 sided.

Ya, truckmann. I'll split w/you, half & half. U pay the $ 1/2, I'll take the class 1/2. That price thing is a sticking point, but I might just take that in the future, especially if the truck guys start to get a more fair shake. ha

Plus, this class is close. Too bad I'm @ ground "0", more or less.

Emphasis on slow. Why not have someone read it to you?

I should probably re-read it myself. I might find some additional info in it that my mind wasn't ready to absorb the first time around...

Greg also has a basic tuning class that is reasonably priced although it is not specifically geared to using HP tuners.

That's why I said the home course. If i was up by you I would definately check into Gregs course, and from what i hear WtW is worth a visit.

Uh, no i read fine but have a limited ability to absorb too much before my head hurts.
