Default More dyno work and NICE custom tune

What a day! My best day yet with the Challenger. Went to a LX tune day at Advanced Motor sports, and they had a very special guest from Australia. His name is Steve Leerentveld and he is CEO of RDP Motorsport. They have the fastest 300c running 11.21 at 123.94 mph. It is amazing what he did for my low end and mid range. 401 rwhp and a whole new feel to the car. Here are a couple website and a video to follow. They had at least 20 very nice LX cars with 4 challengers.

I am now losing close to 18% through the automatic set up. After converter install and a 180 T stat I will finish out with 432.4 to the tires, or 470.88 at the crank.
Not bad for some tuning and a few select bolt ons

Too bad they don't sell Holden cars up here. Totally cool logo.

Yeah those Holden cars are bad ass, came close to buying a Pontiac G8 since it was part of the Holden family, but decided to wait for the Challenger R/T.

I've never used a tuner before. Is there any guidance available on changes I should or should not make?
