I dunno if someone some how could burn a eprom for mysetup, but what is the best suggested tune means for me?

I have rebuilt CA Tomei cams 256 8.5mm lift in and ex Cam gearsRb20 mafvenom 450cc injectorst28rs turbofmictube manifold 3" turbo back with test pipeprob also gonna throw on a KA thottle bodyand FRP

I have a SAFC2, will a tunning shop with a dyno be able to flash the CA computer or do i need a eprom burn from someone b4?

I'm a body man not a master mech so no making fun of the question

Any tuning shop worth their salt should be able to flash an eprom for you. It's doing the actual tune on a CA without PowerFC or the like that's the difficult part (maptracing is a *****). However, you could go with this: http://www.nistune.com. No need to flash eproms and any tuner should be able to use the software. Essentially it's a complete tuning suite for your ECU, no real need for the SAFC and it does a live map trace , which, up until the nistune boards were released, was a very expensive proposition. NIStune is by far and away the simplest (and cheapest) ECU rom tuning solution I've run across for the CA.
