i would definitly look for a tuner that understands the ms2 version of ms. i think it is fairly easy to get someone to tune ve/spark. it's the finer points that takes talent. such as tip in, accel enrich, etc. this is also where it would be nice to get someone that understands miatas. i feel fortunate to only be 4 hrs from DIY in Atlanta. i want the complete tuning package this time. let's faceit, it's fun to tune and datalog. however, at somepoint you want the confidence that u can get in your ride and not worry that it's going to blow up.
My Miata is non aspirated and I'm trying very hard not to sacrifice driveability for the gains from using a stand alone ECU so I agree about the tip in etc.
I have also considered driving the little bugger to DIY but I have no clue what they charge and I'm not looking forward to an over 8 hr drive.

A few mo. back I did find someone that sounded to me as a very knowledgeable person. He was leery of tuning my car because he was not familiar with MegaSquirt. I offered to send him the link to Megatune software so he could mess with it on his own time but it would probably be an expensive proposition for me regardless.

Jerry charges $125/ hr I suspect a full tune by them would take 2-3 hrs. I don;t think they would assume that anything you have done is correct. I think they would start from the beginning.

I would not let someone tune my car if they were not familiar with the software unless they were going to commit to a written agreement that included all aspects of the tuning I wanted and a fixed price. I'm not going to pay someone $500 because they are incompetent when a competent tuner may only cost $300 because of how fast they can do everything.
Totally agree with above

Maybe later on when I gather some funds

I need to get v990.4 installed, I tried using it but had the issue with it giving up after the first use. Then I had other issues with MSII so I threw my MSI back in...I'll give it more use the remained of the week.

i'm setting this up now -- i copied my airdenfactor, thermfactor, and edited my lambdasensors file (my AEM uego never worked right at 9.72 + ... for hte formula, i needed 9.0 + ... )
Anything else I need to set? I know for MT you need to set up which MS you have, what kind of WB, etc.. where does all that go?
EDIT: Nevermind... For all TS newbies, just go to "File" -> "New Project", it walks you through the settings.

What about if you are going from the old version to the new version ?

I'm 99% sure my LC-1 is set to instant display. I had it changed at one point but I'm fairly sure I changed it back. In order to get it that clean I had to run the signal wire back behind the passenger seat and then along the door sill to my harness. there is just too much BS going on in the center console for me to get a clean signal.

Just rename the file MS2ReferenceTables.ini and put in the tunerstudio inc folder
