As above, unless you have the specific equipment to map it (wideband lambda probe and display, det cans etc...) you physically won't know how the changes to the fuelling and ignition maps you're making are effecting the engines running and performance.
By all means learn how to do it yourself as, I'm sure you'll find it's not as difficult as you think but, get all the necessary equipment first.

as i said the other day joe, take it to the right people and let them do it;-)
or youll be crying when it all goes badly wrong!
by all means learn (same as im doing) but theres a big difference in knowing what your doing and thinking you know what your doing' if you get my drift!
there is no room for error as you should well know by now.

The commander is only good for tweaking, you need a datalogit and AFR input to map a car. That will also cost you about £400.

Get someone who knows what they're doing, IF your mods are simple then it should be straight forward. Learn later as no one should expect miracles for £300 of mapping for 4 hours work.
