Default What to do when you don't have a good tuner?

I live on a rock in the middle of the pacific(big island). Right now I have the greddy kit with blue box on my z6(P28ECU). I would like to get hondata, but there are no tuners for it on island. there is only one dyno, and I don't even know how good they can tune.... Is it possible to run hondata with a similar log to what somebody else has run? Who would have the datalog and how much would it cost? I would buy a wideband and keep it in the car, but I am really concerned about tuning if I was to build my motor. don't really want to go with the V-AFC. Thanks for any help you can give.

Fly one in. I bet if a tuner wants to go to hawaii they probalby wouldnt charge you for tunning if you paid for a plane ticket. If tunning was my forte I would have you fly me in..hehe

Contact Hondata , I'm sure he can get you intouch with someone which has a set up like yours.

Get yourself a laptop, WO2 setup, Romeditor, Hondalogger and learn how to tune it yourself, and have fun with it. If you have the patient and the willingness to learn, tuning it yourself can be quite rewarding. Perhaps you will become the "tuner" on the island someday.
