I've had it ever since it came out and I've never used because
A. I don't know what to adjust
B. I don't wanna F*** my car up by improperly tuning it.
anyone here have any experience with it?

tuning is tuning... doesnt really matter what interface you are using. different engines have different personalities but on a WRX for example if someone can tune a UTEC then they can tune an Accessport or any other pretty much the same.
honestly, with the position it sounds like you're in... i'd sell the streettuner and put that money towards getting a professional protune from precision tuning. i'm talking to them about street tuning a handful of us sometime either over the winter or when spring breaks (depending on how much temps affect the tune).
tuning should be left to only those who really know what they are doing... unless you're willing to pay for your mistakes.

I have a question: WHo is the guy that does tuning in Philly for Suabrus? I heard people talk about him at the Hooters Meet but I can't remember who it was.
