Default Dyno Tune

I wanna get myself a dyno tune but besides JDM engineering are there any other places in NJ where I can get one? (JDM only does 2000+ cars)

If not i think ill just get myself a mail order tune..

Don't know about your questions, but hold out for a dyno tune even if you have a to travel a little bit....it will be worth it. It will be much better and safer than a mail order tune.

If you really loved your snake, then youd get a dyno tune for it.

I drove 2 hours one way for mine. My friend drove 4 hours one way to MD for his tune. I knew some one that drove from OHIO to NC for his dyno tune. What's wrong with JDM?

the computer on 97 snakes is identical (for tuning purposes) to 2000-2004 ECU's. Call up JDM and tell them you want a dyno tune. They'll do it. NO MAIL ORDER TUNES. Dyno or no-go.
