I will soon be in need of a tuner to account for some changes I'll be making to my car.
I will be the first to state that I am over my head when it comes to this car, due only to lack of familiarity. I can work on anything and will start poking around inside the program to learn what it can do and how to do it myself. I simply don't have the time to learn right now.
I know I will need to make my expectations clear from the onset. Namely, I need my car to remain reliable. I would like the car tuned on a dyno. I would like the tuner to use my laptop and software. I would like two separate tunes; one for power, the other for economy.
With that out of the way, what questions should I ask my tuner?
Those who make a living as tuners, what questions are you not asked often enough?
What questions do you wish you had asked yours?
This will prove my ignorance: What is the going rate for a tune? Billed per tune? Per session? Per hour?
