I did everything in my sig my self except the tune. For that I contacted Jannetty who sent me a tune to get the car started based on the modes. I then data logged and he retuned. Quite simple and works great for those of us who live where there are no tuners.

Thanks Never, that is who I was referring to as a "reputable shop". I almost think for the price I was quoted, that it would be hard to justify doing it myself. I just like the self satisfaction part of it. But I may just end up taking it to Norris.

Cool.
If you decide to try and tackle it yourself, I'd lend a hand if you want. You could always do the install yourself and then let Mike tune it.

No problem. She just turned 40.
