    Can it be tuned?

    Blackbear is who I went with. 255 bucks and if u decide to do other upgrades you just send it back in and let them tune it to your latest mod.

    Hyper tech makes one as well. I'd just send the black box to black bear performance its cheaper plus they can adjust alot of things
