Tunercats or LT1edit in MI??

Anybody in SE Michigan have Tunercats or LT1edit with a laptop that could help me bump up my idle and check my A/F and I will throw you some cash?

Thanks,
Tom

buy a wideband....

and what you use is up to you. no matter what route you go it will cost ya.

OBDII Tunercats is $500... LT1 edit is similar...

and if you do a OBDI conversion you got the cost of the PCM ($180ish) plus tunercats ($100) and cables ($80).

I went with the OBDI conversion route and saved a couple bucks. But even still i plan on ditching it all for Megasquirt this winter (hopefully)

EDIT: Noticed you jsut wanted someone to help you out. If your into the hobby... i reccomend dropping the cash and buying a tuning solution.

I'm runnin LT1_edit OBD2 97ss 383 D1 72# injectors with MM6. Latest version 2.2 since Carputing came out with it. Did all my own tunes OBD2. Tried an OBD1 conversion but did not like it. Not a fan of send/ receive tuning. Returned to my OBD2 PCM. Had to go with an AF unit (dynojet from Acceleronics.com). AF Wideband really helps to tune it when you have major mods. I'm in SE MI. Still running closed loop for low speed milage and diveability. I've just about modified everything. Never played with automatic trans, but looked @ all the calibrations in the S_ware. B.
