Recent discussions about what custom tuning really is prompted me to try a fun way to explain it.
So I made a quick video (yeah… with cartoons - AI is wild) that walks through the entire process start to finish in a way that’s easy to follow.
What it covers:
- Accessport shows up at your door
- You plug it in and install it
- I send you a base map specific to your setup
- You flash it in a couple minutes
- You go drive and send me logs
- I revise the tune based on your truck’s data
- Repeat until everything is dialed in
The important part here: your tune is built off your truck, your fuel, your environment, and your driving.
Why I made this:
A lot of people are hesitant because they’ve never seen it done, or they assume “remote tuning” just means emailing a similar file to everyone - it doesn’t. Custom tuning is using real data to get safe, predictable power from your vehicle. This is standard practice across nearly every performance platform.
NO DYNO REQUIRED: The dyno is not what makes a tune custom, the revision process is. I dyno less than 1% of the trucks I tune, but if they are local, I prefer to dyno tune them to gather the data and have something to quantitate the results.
My goal with this:
Make the process transparent
Make people comfortable trying it
And show what actually goes into doing it.
