MVP AEM Email Tune????
Has anyone used this service from MVP Motorsports and if so what were the results... good AEM tuners are scarce in this area and I need my car tuned bad!!! Any experienced input would be greatly appreciated.

I'm interested to hear the details on this one. Wouldn't they take into consideration location, setup, rear-end, etc? You could do a decent baseline mapping, but it would require individual tweaking.
You couldn't have the same plug & play response for someone in CO as you would in CA.

guys,
i can tune low power stuff and startup/idle/streetability/cruising, and a good friend of mine (used to be the tuner at Carma Performance in Nashville) can tune the horsepower/boost stuff for you, street or dyno. he's tuned hundreds of high hp cars (mostly with AEM) and owned his own 600whp e85 supra for several years.
i have tuned about 20 cars (most of them have Haltechs) and i've owned 8 EMSs on my own cars (most of them RX7s which require meticulous tuning) over the years and tuned all of them for lots of hours
PM me and we can get it setup

there is a barometric pressure map to make up for the altitude difference, so people can actually get the maps pretty close based on location.

Please heed Cartmill's recommendation.
Email tuning? Seriously?
C'mon you guys, that's a little gullible of you to think that some guy halfway across the country can tell what kind of Volumetric efficiency your engine runs at from behind a desk?
What if you lived in the Rockies, what if you could only get 91 octane?
Most people in this industry assume that you are at sea level, with at least 93 octane.
That might not be the case in your area, so each of you needs to learn how to make light cruising pulls and how to read logs of information as you drive the car under the load it will be seeing. I.E. In your area.
Tuning is not some Black-magic voodoo.
There are millions of tuning boxes out there, but there is a common method on tuning Gasoline based on octane, and E85.
Also it should be mentioned that the 1/1 FPR in a boosted application does exactly what it says it does.
For every pound of boost, you get it matched by one pound of fuel pressure.
So you can actually tune the car at 10psi, get all the parameters where you need them, and not have to go super sonic on your local highways.
When you want to increase the boost, the 1/1 rising rate regulator keeps the AFR curves pretty close. Only minor adjustment is needed from there.
Cliff's Notes:
Email tuning is retarded. Learn how to tune. Do it where you live. Enjoy!

Its for someone who needs somewhat of a map to get the car running safely enough for them to get it to a shop to properly tune the vehicle.
This email tune is just for the people that have no clue as to how to tune.

Join AEM power.
Download base map.
Car runs.
Keep your foot out of it, drive it to your "Tuner".
No need to do a random 3rd party "Basemap" when you can get it right from AEM.
No offense, but if one has a AEM standalone, and one doesn't know how to operate it, one shouldn't be messing with it to begin with.
It's crazy powerful and can destroy the engine in point two.

spoolexo, a very good friend of mine used email tuning (Enthalpy) for a while and had a pretty much rock solid tune for years (S13 with sr20 and 3071R). we later installed a haltech and retuned it and got more power and stuff, but the email tune was actually pretty damn good.
some of these guys can get these email tunes pretty close.
i'm not a big fan, as every car is different, but don't knock on the email tunes quite so hard
