youll need to provide all your car information like year, engine, tranny, mods, computer code, and anything else youd like like rev limiter and all that.

I would wait till you get like an O/R X or H and gears so that you can really use the tuner.

Gears come in a few months. I need this to help my auto tranny shift and what not. THis is my building platform everything else will be applied afterwards so its tuned for each modification. Plus every little bit helps.

There should be a white sticker on your passanger side door that has 3 letters and one number. If its faded or not there, it also says on your computer in big bold letters on top of a bar code. The computer is located behind your passenger side kick panel.

List EVERY performance modification.

Does that also include what grade of gas I want to run on or do I do that myself?

Youll want to run 93 octane to get the best performance.
