I dont know of any shops in NY but you might want to try posting your question in the ECU Tuning section of the board, you might get more response there. http://www.newcelica.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=208

Also i believe awhile back that someone posted something about tuning the SS, you might want to try searching for it.

with a wideband, tuning your SS should be piece of cake.

Well i got bored so i searched for it for you. Hopefully it helps you out, maybe you can print it out and show it to your tuner or whatever.

PM Jersey Jay. He pioneered the Split Second ECU for the Celica.

The wideband will tell you how rich/lean you are running. That way, you can play with the software values to achieve your desired A/F numbers. You should keep your car running in the 11.5-12 A/F range under boost. In the fuel map on the SS, the default value is 10 (its like having the stock ecu without the SS), so if the wideband tells you that you are running rich at a certain rpm and psi, you put a value less than 10, and so on. Thats why I say its a piece of cake (too bad Im selling my SS very soon).

I tried to put it as simple as I could, so good luck, and have fun.

1st off you have to get a baseline tune on a dyno.
Then you have to tune on the street under real load.
In order to street tune you need a data logger that has a wideband built into it.
You are going to have to repeat both steps a number of times in order to get you tune dead on.
The SS unit doesn't have that may maps and cell values but it is important that you alter each cell in each map to acheive an optimum tune.
Don't expext to be done in a couple of hours.
