Quetions to ask a tuner
 

When a customer contacts a Tuning company about having their car done,
what are some of the most pertinent questions that the customer should ask of the Tuner?
I will be adding an SC and will need to have a tune done , but I have no knowledge as to what to look for in what the co. offers or what to ask.
I'm want a daily driver and will do some track time. Not necessarily wanting max HP, but still want to know that my investment went to good use.

You should make sure that they've tuned multiple boosted Z's. Don't be a guinea pig for anyone.

I'd go one step further and make sure they have tuned many boosted 370Z/G37 cars. The VVEL is a whole different animal.

Keep in mind that the base tune from GTM will be sufficient to drive pretty much anywhere for the tune. Just don't go nuts. GTM's base maps leave a lot to be desired, but they're usually pretty safe.

Other items to ask about:
Fan duty cycle
Throttle re-mapping (Take the most current map from the big thread here)
Speed limiter removal

Thanks, That's kinda what I am looking for. (General tuning questions that is.)
I'm not sure I can get the tuning download from GTM. I just purchased this SC kit through Vivid racing.
I've sent my ECU info etc. to GTM but have not received a reply as of this time.
So I may have to start fresh with a Tuner.

Did you receive a cable with the kit?

Yes

Have you tried to call GTM? While it's the longest of long shots, maybe you'll get lucky. Otherwise you have to have someone email you a base map to drive the car to the tuner. If your tuner doesn't have a lot of boosted Zs under his belt he may not have one handy and you'd end up trailering the car to him.

I would look into EcuTek - actually having real ignition control when going boosted is important !!

Is there an Ecutek tuner in his area?

Not sure

EcuTek - Advanced ECU Technology

Do you have the ability for map switching with Ecutek yet? What about end user tuning?

No end user tuner - yet.

As promised here are a few new features from EcuTek :)

EcuTek RaceRom 4-WAY Map Switching

If you're not local, maybe you can advertise where appropriate .....
I'm looking for info as to what to ask a tuner about how to set up my boosted vehicle...
