Default Custom tuning ?

Anyone here have a 96 - 01 and do their own custom PCM tuning ? I been using SCT and the advantage 3 software, other option is syked ECU tuning. Curious to see if there is anyone else who does their own calibrations

None, i been doing my own tuning since last year. Was wondering if there were others here that did their own aswell.. its not witch craft, its pretty fun but it takes time to data log and then make new revisions when needed. If someone is competent they can be taught how to do it. Using SCT and advatage iii (pro racer package) is the easiest IMO the other option is syked ECU tuning, the parameters are the same, the lay out is very similar so its easy if someone were to transfer between the two plateforms.

Always wanted to get into tuning but thought it was difficult

I would also like to get into my own tuning. A Co-worker said to use HP tuners. I would like to learn as much as I can about tuning.

Zen357 - for the 2nd gen rams, jeeps, dakotas and durangos that have the JTEC pcms (pretty much anything 96 - 02) for dodge / Chrysler the only options are SCT or Syked ecu tuning. HP tuners would be the better option but they dont offer support on our JTEC computers. SCT cost more because you have to buy the SCT x3 hand held and the advantage iii software to do your own calibrations. The syked ECU comes with everything but their process is a little different, its not bad though.
