    2 HR Tune

    Im new to the tuning thing. Very New. I had my truck tuned 2 years ago and he had it done in 2 hours. From what im learning it takes a long time to dial it in. He didnt use a wide band or anything. What do these 2hr tuners do? Just add fuel and timing and call it good?

    depends, they could have a base cal that they actually done on another vehicle that worked well that they could use as a starting point, takes about 20 seconds to copy over differences. However not using a wideband is a bit sketchy for my tastes.
    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    A wise man once said "google it"

    That makes since. When i had them tune it i didnt know what to ask. And im guessing he may have had a base from another. I will look it over and see if i can figure out a little but im still to new.

    Depends on how many modifications the vehicle has. It's easy to tune a mostly stock vehicle in 1 hour and a typical modified LS engine in 2 hours. But it helps when you've tuned hundreds of them and have files to use for baseline.
