For the newbies like me on tuning.
If you have read the stickies and researched countless postings and still not sure on what to get. This is what I have found and you can get it in one location. HERE.
This is for those with a Camaro or Bird like mine.
91 Camaro RS 305 TBI.
Here is what you need to tune your car.
These items are on moates.net.
APU1 (all in one auto prom package)
http://www.moates.net/product_info.p...products_id=54
G2 (memory adapter)
http://www.moates.net/product_info.p...products_id=36
S2 (socket adapter)
http://www.moates.net/product_info.p...products_id=44
C2 (spare chips)
http://www.moates.net/product_info.p...products_id=39
You will be able to read your cars info, data log, manipulate the settings, you can even plug your laptop into your car and see real time data and make changes to see what it will do. When you find the settings you want you can just burn a chip with that setting and your good to go.
Don't get me wrong there is a lot of info that you need to research to know what to start changing. But this will help with the question of where do I get the stuff and what stuff do I need? In my opinion this is the way to go.
I hope this will help some people out there that have fried brains from looking at all the info on here and not get the one question that they want answered.

Interesting, where were you two days ago?
I haven't ordered anything yet but that doesn't look too bad. How long have you had yours? Is it the cats meow?

Thanks for the kudos.
EBL is definitely cool, I've seen it in action. Definitely want to check that out also.

Re: For the newbies like me on tuning.
Hey Craig, that's funny that you should chime in. I was just about to email you and ask what the benefits between the two systems are. Which one is better, more user friendly etc.. I plan on getting a system here in the next week. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance to you guys.
