I'm with doood, you can ruin your car if you don't know what you're doing.
Leave your crossover alone, tuning a stock motor won't net you anything.

So we should let him install it, mess with the settings, and blow his motor up?
That would be irresponsible, and I'm sure he's aware Apexi can send him installation instructions for free.

The manuals can be downloaded here: http://www.apexi-usa.com/support_installation.asp
However, as others have stated, if you do not have experience tuning and access to a wideband O2 or dyno, you really shouldn't attempt to adjust the unit yourself. You could easily end up doing more harm than good, and at the very least may have less power than you started with.

That's not necessarily true. Properly tuning even a relatively stock setup can still yield gains, though whether or not those gains are worth the expense if one has to pay for dyno time is debatable.

Though true, gains on a stock motor from tuning are often negligible. 5-10whp at most. But not cost efficient when you have to pay for the dyno/tuning.
