just to follow up

The BA2400 maf is repeatable within 2% and i have done close to 150 successful mail order tunes on foxbodies all over the country. It wasnt worth my time, aggravation, and chance at an unhappy customer so i rarely do any mail orders any longer..
I have been doing quite a bit of live tuning via the internet with FAST XFI, BS3, and AEM... most recently, i tuned a car from Canada as they were on the dyno and i was in my office!
So that's two things I would have to line up renting a dyno and getting Bob to tune my car via interweb

Yeah only if you have one of the stand alone ECM's he listed. He can't do that with your factory computer.
