You're boosted... that's a little different than stock, buddy. I was just throwing it out there as an alternative to the $600 Uprev tune that gives the tuner less control
FWIW, I did not get mine remotely tuned, so I can't say I disagree with you on the remote tuning - prior to my recent tuning experience with this particular guy I would have felt a little uncomfortable with the idea myself.
I guess I was speaking more about home loans. Auto loans are so much shorter and don't have the same impact. Regardless, if you increase the loan, you better do some calculations to make sure of the numbers. It's not uncommon for your refi to wind up with almost identical total payment over the life of the loan. However, this isn't necessarily bad if you need some temporary relief in your payments, and are willing to accept a longer loan term in exchange.
