Tunes for $$$$$?

I dont know how to tune but i need my car tuned. BUT...... I live in Mississippi and there isnt anyone to tune around here.

So my question is, is there anyone reputable that I can pay to go back and forth logging with me until my car and tune run correctly? I guess Im kinda looking for a mentor that can show me the basics. Im decent on a computer, but im not a rocket scientist or math guru so you wont be teaching an idiot but not a genius ethier.

I have a wideband installed and a boost guage.

The mods are as follows:
AMS UIP
AMS Intake
AMS Single Exhaust
AMS Cat Delete
Magnus Down Pipe
HKS BOV kit non recirc

Or if there is a tune i can buy or thats free already made for these mods

Thanks and Im sorry if this is a stupid question

u thought about email tune, i just learned about this myself, ive been told ams, buschur i think and some other shops i cant remember do this, if you have logging ability log your current tune, send the shop of your choice your tune and list of mods, and theyll send you back a tune specific for your mods and vehicle, for a fee of course

Mellon Tuning and VR Speed Factory also offer email tunes. Do you have a Tactrix Cable and the Evoscan and Ecuflash programs? If not, you'll need these for an email tune.

Buy a Cobb Accessport and flash on their AMS Stage 2 OTS map or contact an email tuner such as Mellon.

Sounds like your good to go for an email tune. I've heard good things about all of them. I think VR Speed Factory and Mellon might be a little cheaper though. If it were me, I would use one of those two because you'll still get a great tune and you'll save some money. With AMS you're paying a little more for the name and I'm not 100% sure Buschur does email tunes.

Autoworx Garage - I'm in Horn Lake Mississippi so you can either drive up for a tune or we can tune you remotely via e-mail. check out the tuning section of our site to get up to speed on how the process works. If you've got a group of guys needing a tune I'll consider driving down to you instead

also if you're unfamiliar with my company you can do a search for threads with "mellon" in the title and learn a lot quickly.
