Check greddy's website for an Adobe file of the users manual/operating instructions. (if u dont already have those) it might give general steps to help you dial in your motor.

or

6GC.NET baby! lol some people here have it, if u have specific questions, i am sure they will be happy to help.

i kinda skimmed over the manual b4.. it just seems to be more of how the program works...

i'm just like a complete noob to it and i guess what i kinda wanted was more like... how to tune?

PM presure2! I believe he has this same setup. He should be able to tell you where to go to learn something or how to do it yourself. Good luck

nope.
EFI101 is a class you can take, its about 1000$ tho.
other than that, its a matter of learning from others, read read read.
then experimenting, without blowing it up.

Has anyone read the book How to Tune and Modify Engine Management Systems by Jeff Hartman?

I am just wondering if it would be a decent book to read to learn about tuning?

yup.
anything you can read like that will be good.
it will help alot with learning the basics.

The thing is that in order to understand tuning, first you have to understand how your engine works. I knew more about tuning than how my engine worked, so I didn't understand or could use the info. Once I did research, I was finally able to apply what I knew, which is not a lot, but definately enough to prevent me from killing my engine.
