Im looking to learn how to tune for myself. Can anyone recommend some sites with good info? Ive helped my friend with street tuning his ls1. So i kinda understand what needs to be done. but i dont want to assume anything so i figured started from scratch and learning as i go would be the best bet

Well what kind of car and what year are you working with?

There's some decent sources of info out there, I'll post what I have:

Get yourself an ALDL cable from:

(make sure you double check what kind of connector is under your dash)

And get TunerProRT from:

I'm learning on my 94 z28 and its pretty interesting stuff

I have a barely used OBD1 cable from AKM that i'll let go for 60 shipped, has a serial connector.
