nistune site has a search engine for authorized dealers.

search it up for your location.

Not sure i understand ...

Nistune is a daughterboard. Once you have it installed, you need someone to do the tune. What exactly do you want ? A tune, or someone to install the nistune board ? Installing the board is quite easy, tuning ... well it requires a tuner. And a tuner needs the whole car to do a proper job (if he does not then there is no difference from an off the shelf chip)

The nistune software comes with a buttload of starter tunes, I'm pretty sure. Get the software, it comes with the tunes.

After that, take it somewhere and get it on the dyno to be properly tuned.

The nistune software is licenced though, so he wont be able to do much if he only bought the board.

You need to find a local tuner to tune your car with some dyno time. You should post in the regional section for your state.

i went to them but they dont do them anymore

Ok you need someone to tune it then.

The software is pretty easy to use, anyone who knows how to map a car could do it. It still requires AFR / EGT / knock sensors and a dyno to tune it though. If you know a place with a dyno, you could try asking them if they know someone who can do it.

so i would only need to buy the nistune lincense

Croustibat · 02-11-2013, 02:13 AM

If you can find someone who can do nistune mapping, he should have the licence already, you dont need to buy one. Try contacting a dyno place and ask if they know about a nistune tuner. If you cant find anyone, then you may need to buy a licence and have a tuner that does not know about nistune to tune your car.

But the first step is really to find someone.
