Hey I am just trying to figure out how all this stuff works and I'm wondering what I should buy...

Do I need the wbO2 sensor and a tuning device? Im looking at LM-1 or LM-2 and Im not sure what else I need... VAFCII or SMT-7... But I cant find anywhere to order smt-7...

What would you guys recommend for somebody with very little experience with tuning? Im thinking after I get my headers and exhaust I will need some tuning. Can I hook up these units and just let the dyno tech do the tuning for me??

What devices/sensors work best for beginners and how do you use them? (how does the 02 sensor work in conjunction with VAFC??)

plz dont tell me to search... I've been reading on this for hours and still dont understand...

 

First off, what mods are you tuning? What mods are you planning? I see you only have a Injen which most will agree is probably the worst intake for the Maxima. But aside from that I wouldn't really start tuning fully until you have more mods.

 

and YES I know that injen sucks... I didnt find that out untill it was too late! but this isnt the cai vs wai thread....

So within a month or so I will have Injen CAI, Cattman Header, Cattman 3" catback exhaust - and I bought the smoked side markers but I wont tune them till I get a bunch of stickers to boost up my hp! lol

 

you don't really need a vafc and wideband for the mods you have. I guess you could get the smt7 and go crazy but that's up to you. Lots of research involved in tuning with that...
