uhhh, sure.
I dunno about you, but if I had the time you did to make all these posts on all these forums, I'd put 900$ down on the software for the particular EMS you purchased for your car and learned to tune it myself.
"oh but it's so easy to fuck up and hard to test for gains"
Sure but consider this ;; Do you think your "local tuners" didn't blow some shit up learning wtf they were doing? Most tuning software comes with "HOLYSHIT" sensors when you change something significantly. I've seen the software for a Civic Si and its pretty idiot proof.
And how much do you pay one of your tuner buddies to change a few things here and there? I can't speak for where you live but for my area its about 400$ for 3 dyno runs and 2 tunes. (initial pull, tune 1 and final tune) The money spent on your tuners could be spent on... "oops" repairs from the mistakes made self-tuning lol.
Just saying, thats what I would do.
