I like the idea of being able to switch your car around from economy to power from your own home with a simple computer tune, however....how easy is it to do yourself? Most place's charge an arm and a leg for this...
Thanks guys.

If you have the flash tuner box with 2-3 different tunes it takes maybe 2-3 mins to change them over.

Do the tunes come pre-set in the box? if i was to purchase a second hand one used on a AU previously, would that work out ok?

No because the box and tunes are VIN locked to your car, there is a group buy of flash tuners happening now from KPM Motorsport with 3 generic tunes to get you started, check the KPM forums.
