Re: How many miles before getting a tune?

I prefer when possible to seat rings on the dyno and immediately move to tuning.

Street cars= Idle/startup/check over, change oil.
Vac pulls (20 or so miles) Change oil

Begin tuning non high load stuff for a few hundred miles, change oil at 500 miles. Depending upon rough in mileage period, start tuning high load around 100-200miles.

Re: How many miles before getting a tune?

Having it broken in on the dyno was another thing I have been thinking about because I have changed a few things from last year and it was never fully tuned last year and I definitely don't feel comfortable messing around with afrs or timing with aem. It just seems most people don't recommend breaking it in on the dyno.

Weather its on the dyno or on the street I just want to make sure it's done right

Re: How many miles before getting a tune?

The car is tuned for wide open throttle so no reason to worry about any issues with the tune.

The car is not tuned for wide open throttle right now. That's part of the problem
