What do you mean by getting your car tuned on the spot? You mean, get a tune-up? Most of that stuff like changing the spark plugs, wires, cap and rotor, O2 sensor, and fuel filter is stuff you can do in your driveway with a basic set of hand tools.

Check the tech articles on this site, there are quite a few good ones about general maintanence and upgrades.

Why do you need yor computer tuned? If the car is stock, you don't need a custom chip. If it is modified, Kevin and Don do custom chips, but they need more info than you have given.

And it takes time to get a 'good' chip created, basically it's a test and tune type of process. The 'on the spot' type tuning can really only be done by yourself with your own complete tuning setup.
