**Learn To Tune!!!**

I know there isn't a person on here that doesn't want to learn how to tune cars. Well if you've ever researched it, you might have stumbled across EFI University.

EFI University holds weekend seminars at shops giving classes on tuning cars. Their 2 main courses are EFI 101 and EFI Advanced. I just got off the phone with KTR Performance in Ayer, MA. They've tried the seminar before but couldn't get enough clientel to bring EFIU to the shop.

They need about 10 people to go. The classes are $495.00 for 101 and $1195.00 for the advanced class.

I'm gauging interest in rounding up about 10 people to show serious interest in the EFI 101 course and getting EFI University to come up to KTR. They have classes in IL, GA, and CA right now.

Under $500 to learn the basics. Under $1700 for a great EFI education. Could be the best "mod" you ever did for your car.

If your interested please let me know. 10 people is all we would need. There has to be 10 people out there that want to do this.

Look at their website for more information about their courses.

As of now KTR is losing their current tuner so they have that fish to fry first. I'm gonna check in with Scott again after the 4th and we'll take it from there.

Dates TBA for EFI 101, Date TBA for EFI Advanced

I hear ya.... but some places don't have 'name brand' tuners in their area.

I would be interested in the class, but the travel is what's doing me in. The closest to me (located in Houston) is the class in GA. I might be up for a little travel though, but would need to know pricing and such in advance.

I would love to see more interest in this. I may have the opportunity to be the instructor for that class if it becomes a reality.

Stupid question, but is this something that would only be applicable to people using aem, or is it the general ins-and-outs of tuning that can be applied to all management systems? I'm pretty local, have been wanting to check out KTR, and may very well be interested

General Ins and outs. You need to check out the website and read the info on the course I plan on taking this course to tie up the loose ends of my tuning knowledge. I know much about tuning theory, but getting it all started is where i lack confidence. I can tweak a tune but can't make a base map. Once i've taken both of their courses, I plan on taking AEM's factory certification program. www.efi101.com

Ben Strader is big on Autronic and that is what he uses in the class, but the class is geard towards how to apply the use of any system and not use of any piticular system, just all the theory around electronic fuel injected engines/ tuning.....
