    What all do I need to start tuning???

    I'm new to this stuff. I purchased the pro edition and the home tuner class as well. I'm trying to explain to my wife the $1000 is a good deal. They say I have to install an O2 wideband sensor? I'm confused. I am trying to initially tune an 05 Avalanche. What else do I need? Thanks in advance

    I guess it depends on your goals, budget & current understanding of gas engines. Think about the shops that spend $40+k on a dyno or $10k on a Horbita wideband.
    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    I'm reading in the "Quick Start Guide" of the "Tuning the Right Way" page 9 "Wideband O2 Hardware Installation". Do I need to purchase this or is this something I'll want as I get more into the tuning process?
