I heard there was an end date for the NASSOA member discount from Wester's. Do you happen to know when that date is? Thanks!

I don't see Wester's on the support venders list. Am I overlooking them, or are they sold by one of our venders? Is this the tune you personally have, and have you compared it to any other NA tunes?

Actually Wester's is sold by Dejon AND as vendor of NASSOA(TM) is also permitted to be discussed via our supporting vendor status.

Any idea when the Wester's discount expires?

There was a special extra discount in March, the current discount thru NASSOA(TM) AFAIK has no expiration.

That's fine. I wasn't trying to play the"Don't put it on here if it's not from a supporting vendor" card. It's not my job to police things like that. I just know nothing about the Wester's tune for a NA car. I saw mention that Dejon sold ECM tunes, so it's good to know if it's their own programming or a 'canned' tune that's on the market elsewhere. Good consumer information to have.

That's the first time I've seen NASSOA with the trademark indication. Am I wrong typing it like I just did without the (TM)?

I have a 2007 2.4 stomp and go (auto) and will be looking into a tune in about a month or so. Before getting the Sky I had no clue what a tune was (never modded anything other than the stereo in my cars).

If anyone that sells, personally has, or suggests a certain tune I would appreciate it. I know some are from non-supporters, so if thats the case just pm me please. I have the general idea of how a tune works, so no worries there.

fyi: I have Cold Air Intake ducted to take in COLD air and I will have the RPi GT exhaust by the time I get this tune done (thanks Eloy)

It means we now have full control over both camshafts (among other things) and can increase power and fuel economy a smidgen more using this new procedure. Just another reason to stick with the innovators

You may want to hold off a few months. As of right now only the Engine Control Module(ECM)
can be tuned. Here in a few months I'm told the Transmission Control Module(TCM) will also
be able to be tuned. Read post #35 in this thread and you'll see how much more can be done for the autos with the TCM tune. I'll be waiting for both TCM/ECM tune.

Those TCM's have been out since the First Cadillac CTS and there is still no tuning support for them, I wouldnt hold your breath
