hi all,

I've recently bought myself a mps3 and am looking to tune her up!
so I went out and bought versatune thinking it was easy to use :oops: how wrong was I
after days of looking and playing around I have come to the conclusion that it is a bit beyond me at this present time with my limited knowledge of turbo tuning and the last thing I want to do is hurt my new baby so I was wondering if their was anybody on the forum who I could get to tune my mps3 up?

many thanks
Doddy

Find yourself DJJUT and ask him nicely. You'll need a Cobb Accessport or VersaTuner as well as a PC/laptop (which presumably you have).

There's a reason he gets called Mr Wizard, and it's not because he knows magic tricks... He does, but that's not why he's called Mr Wizard. :)

justin is the main man.
But get hpfp internals first or he won't touch it. Should be the first thing you got really

I've been tuned without HPFP internals, but I'm still going to get them just to be on the safe side. Then Justin can give it even more beans.

There is no "best" person , the big hitters can all get you where you want to be.

You have :

purple drank
ray dagher
freektune

Freek is probably the biggest in the world , purple drank dont tune versa the last time i heard.

Isn't that the beauty of e-tuning , the mapper could live on the moan as-long as he has at-least a dial up connection you will get that map

It would be good if justin had the PRO version of ATR and people could go down get tuned in a day with him in the car live mapping .
