Contact Ed Mowton. He sells Hp tuners and can set you up a tune. He also does online training courses as well.

It's important to understand HP Tuners gives you access to hundreds of tables.. it does NOT come with any sort of tunes or directions for what to change based on your mods, etc.. It's up to the end user/tuner to make the changes they want. HPT just gives you access to them and tools to figure out what to change (i.e. their Scanning software)

Ed is well regarded for helping people get started (and more). If I were starting from scratch that is who I'd probably talk to

Just don't expect to plug it and hit a button for "long tube headers" tune and flash it and be done. It will take some time to learn what you want to change, but it's also much more powerful in that you can change anything you want whenever you want once you know how to use it.

Basic stuff like disabling codes is a no brainer

You can download HPTuners software for free off of their webpage. You can download some tunes and logs to look around from the HPTuners forum if you want.

Get a hold of Diablo, let them know the mods you have on the car, and chances are they will send you a new tune file to re-flash the ECM with the controller you have now (including disabling the Post O2's with the single button push) .

Hp tuner and EFI live in the hands of someone that does not know what they are doing, or how to tune in the first place, will end with blowing a motor up instead.


As stated, both of these programs give you access to close to all the mapping tables of the ECM, and since it's not just push a button to flash in a pre-written complete tune of any kind (you are modding the maps one cell at a time instead), and you have to know how to tune correctly before you change anything in the mapping to begin with!!!!

Just two of many menus and tables in HP tuner that the mapping can be changed,
