I live in Reno, NV (4500ft above sea level) I need my car tuned but there is nobody in the area that i trust w/ a built cobra. SO if i take it down to Sacramento to AED tuning and get it tuned will the tune be wrong when i get back up to elevation?

I believe the ecu will compensate at normal driving speeds, but boost is another story.

I would think tuning at elevation... for living at elevation would be the best BUT I would not chance a built Cobra on someone who doesn't know how to tune them.

Likely give up a bit of HP for peace of mind you're running a safe quality tune.

Some tuner people may have a different idea on here?
