only bad thing i heard bout k-pro is people messing up their motors due to not knowing how to tune their car. Other then that K-pro is the way to go.

never heard of gaurdian but i think i'll stick with k-pro as it's been proven to be very efficient with our motors. k-pro FTW

if you don't know what your doing then just pick the calibration that suites your car and leave it at that
thats all i did when i first got mine put in and its completely safe
then i took it to a tuner to clean up the a/f and whatever "magic" he did

yeah i just uploaded a map and started with that. I was purely afraid of tuning my car since i had no clue. But i didn't want to pay an ungoddly amount of money for someone to tune it so i sat there for roughly 3 weeks and read and watched videos and read and watched videos over and over. Now i have almost a complete understanding of how to tune my car and make power. Dunno how to really tune it for economy wise but i can make it power wise.

I heard BAD things about guardian. And it makes your car run way too rich. You'll be frying o2 sensors over time.

Kpro ftw.

Kpro or AEM stand-alone is my debate.
