How difficult is it to master the SCT X-CALIBRATOR and get the proper tune out of it?

Master? There's really nothing to master. You plug it in and follow the menus. It's easy to operate. Here's a video that shows how to load a tune with an XCAL2: http://www.brenspeed.com/tech/loadingtunes.wmv

If you can program a VCR or operate a microwave oven, you're a brainiac with respect to the XCAL2.

I dont understand if you mean master it, as in be able to make your own custom tunes or what not or just load a tune and know what your doing haha

FenderParrothead

Yeah, I think they're referring to the ability to write your own tunes. He/she wants to know what knowledge and equipment are needed to write your own custom tune that you can then upload to an SCT (or other tuner) and put it on your car...

...and actually make the car run well . Blowing up the engine doesn't count...haha

Well then that is not an easy process...

FenderParrothead

Yeah, that whole "not blowing up the engine" criteria, I'm sure adds an extra amount of difficultly to the process.....

I'm talking about making your own tunes

howarmat

unless you know what you are doing you arent going to get any better than a mail order tune from VMP, Bamachips or Brenspeed.....they have mastered it

I prefer to leave the tunes to the masters!!!!!!!!!!
