My friend runs a tuning shop and was telling me the price. 5 classes and they only attend the last 2 days cuz that's the actual tuning part of the classes. The others is like wiring, setup, etc etc. But then again this is Haltech so being the most premium brand now it's probably gonna be expensive.

Cheapest is Youtube.

I would suggest you getting a High Performance Academyn(HPA) subscription. Watch the live webinar introduction to tuning and they'll usually give you some good deal on the package. Really worth it IMO though I do not actually have it.

Don't mind paying for premium education if i am learning from one of the best.

While it's wise to physically learn from the experts, I am wondering the same thing, one can really pick up serious skills with youtube videos these days. I have been watching LED topics, soldering tips, wiring methods recently and was able to successfully build my project. It is my go to source for learning stuff and the best part is you have related videos which may lead you to knowing things you didn't know you need

Bro if you get more info please share. I'm keen as well. The Haltech session was completed just a few months back and I don't have that much cash to fork out anyway.

The only issue with Youtube is you will fall sometimes and make mistakes. Just pray they aren't expensive mistakes. With a expert guiding you, you will pick up the habits that the expert has which may or may not be a good thing either. Then depending on the experts personality, you may or may not get scolded a zillion times before you are able to stand on your own. Haha! I personally fixed a lot of things with Youtube and Google. Not all car-related things though.

True, it really depends on the individual's geek level. Still, it's a good place to start from zero. In just a few short Youtube videos you go from illiterate to literate and it gets you far enough to start trying and actually solve the problem. Like Programming, I think ECU tuning can be learned from the videos. After all, it's a technical skill. Then maybe after all that self learning, you want to get an expert to optimize skills further.

If it was kung fu, then maybe one should start with an expert

You da man. Thanks for sharing! I wanna know

Dear All,

So far my findings:

USM Serdang - no longer offer short course - full time course only
TOC - Diploma in Motorsport 2.5 years, not good for working adults as full time course only and covers from mechanical to electrical. 80% practical and 20% theory as they claimed

Next one, HPA, getting some info on equipment i may need before signing up for the online course. Cert of completion is provided.

Equipment required is laptop, a standalone ECU hehehe. If you are really interested maybe can meet up I can teach you some basics. I'm far from a pro, but enough to tune my own car myself.

I taught you abit also what when you shot my car last time but you macam not interested pun. Plus I'm not qualified in any way, just a hobbyist too broke to pay a tuner plus most tuner won't go near my ecu with a stick at hand
