A rice boy that hits a command promp to get a computer to change screens?
What you are thinking of is being a tuner. If you need to ask what that is, then you cannot be it. That is all.

Re: looking for info
i think the only tuning of anything you should be doing is tuning the tv to the next channel.
but if you are real serious, you can go into UTI or Wyotech, 2 year program, and you'll basically know how to to almost everything from repairs, to tuings air/fuel maps.

Re: looking for info
Actually just buy and Eclipse. stupid cars break so often you will be a trianed mechanic in no time. Then you moddify the eclipse so that it breaks again but now you are repairing modded parts and you become a trained tunner!
simple eh?
